  6. I would buy a high voltage servo for what it would cost,then it should all work.
  7. Been using aurora 9 for a few seasons now,love the set easy to program but they are no longer available and I have I problem with the display,that will not get any better.As the radiomaster has a touch screen and is relatively cheap I will give it a go.
  8. Thinking of buying a new transmitter,but I am a bit confused by this open tx.Any use frsky or similar?
  9. I use ronseal hard glaze it comes gloss or satin,it seems to cover any paint finish enamel or acrylic.Dries pretty quick,you can get it at b&q etc.
  10. Received mine today,I don’t think there are enough numbers and letters,another 5 or 6 would have made it far more secure.You can never be too careful.
  11. The CAA assumes it owns the airspace,I would imagine they will sell to the highest bidder,but this is a commodity that they do not own.
  12. Did any one have the registration number checked,?has anyone turned up at your field and checked your aircraft?Do these officials work weekends?what is it all about?
  13. It is as long as the bmfa stops us standing in a field maybe on our own.You can go fishing or for a walk,this could go for months maybe years maybe for ever.

  17. On that basis younger members who will get the jab last,won't be able to fly!
  18. Not just model materials,I am a timber merchant and wholesale timber prices are rising at an alarming rate.
  19. I had the same the backing wasn't stuck to covering,pretty sure it is not as good as profilm though I was told they are now the same.
  20. I use the multiplex power set and it climbs very quick.3 cell 2200 fits just right,I also use the multiplex servos as they fit without any carving.excellent glider and I can fly it through lockdown in the field behind my house.
  21. Should mine ready next week,just finished the covering.seems to balance about right with the battery in,I am struggling to source the right size wheel collets.
  22. No the hatch is between the cabanes.
