Well at the weekend I had a successful 2nd maiden flight with this warbird, bit shaky to start, got her trimmed and flew a few circuits then the ESC cuts out and managed to glide her onto some heather, the ESC was very hot and had cut out before my battery alarm sounded, I have now added ventilation into the cabin to keep it cooler I hope, also with this plane I have had to add 45gms of lead to the nose to get the correct cog, hence the 2nd maiden, lol, a couple of pointers there if you are thinking of buying this beautiful warbird, hers a pic of the cooling vents.

Thanks for all the input, I've gone for the Mirage, it will be in the air quicker

This could be ideal for a transplant https://www.sussex-model-centre.co.uk/aircraft/edf-jets/kits/top-gun-park-flite-mirage-2000-edf-electric-jet-airframe-kit What do you think

Thanks for the info, the EDF is a 64mm Dr mad thrust 12 blade 3300kv on 4s, the plane was a Freewing Stinger mk2

Hi guys, after recently destroying my foam jet I was thinking of building one from scratch using balsa etc but I cant find any, can anyone recommend anywhere, it's for a 64mm EDF unit?, thanks

Hi all, newbie here, well almost, I remember going with my Dad to Chobham Common about 40 years ago to watch the rc aircraft, I have always had an interest in flight since then, I did build a few, well 3 in total around 20 years ago, a Wot4, a Yamomoto & another balsa & tissue plane with an os40 4 stroke, glow engine and tried to go it alone , and we all know where they ended up. Since then I have amounted 5000 hour on a PC flight simulator & am now the COO of virtual Air Canada, I have also piloted a Cessna 152 for an hour or so, I thought I would give rc planes another go, so I purchased a powered glider & have flown this quite a few times recently & it is still as new, I have now purchased a Durafly Tundra as an upgrade & yesterday I had my maiden flights with no probs & will be joining a club soon.
