In the 80‘s, the Cotswold Tracers where very popular in Switzerland and i flew one with a 3.5 ccm Novarossi. It was very hot and fast for me at this time, cause i was not so experienced. Some time ago, i could buy a new-old Tracer kit by Paul Bardoe and was gone back on the 80‘s again. Exactly everything the same as 40 years ago. I decided to insert an electric conversion instead of the Novarossi by using a HET 2W20 motor in combination with 3S 3200 Lipos. Maiden was in October and very succesfull. Very very fast but easy to land - absolutely my favorite plane. In the meantime, i received another one from Barrie Lever - Pylon Line. He add lasered balsa parts, new instructions and balsa veneered wings in top quality. Absolutely good!
I hope many Tracers will flown the next season 🙂
