Caught in flight a couple of days ago. Gives some idea of the performance.

Has IC engines got a future anymore ?
Futura57 replied to flying daddy's topic in All Things Model Flying
Loving the closing disclaimer. No sense in triggering sensitive types 😉 I do concur with everything you write about the declining IC models at the field. I swing both ways 🙃 -

Yippee, more IC bargains to be had. Disappointed by JE going though. -
Just Engines no more.
Futura57 replied to RottenRow's topic in R/C Retailers / Distributors / Manufacturers
Oh no. I guess a victim of the relentless decline of IC engine use. I bought some Moki O ring sets from them last year. I will call for a couple more sets, not to panic buy, but to keep me going a few more years with such consumables. For as long as glow fuel is readily available I will continue to use IC alongside my electric models. God, I'm beginning to feel old. -
So a Sunday, Monday, Tuesday? 🤔 Or am I looking at the wrong year on my calendar.

3m wingspan depron scratch build C-130 Maiden flight
Futura57 replied to Ben-Erik Ness's topic in The Video Channel
Nice model and nice flying facilities. Way more power than you need. Looks like it's flying at Mach 1 scale. Once ypu get to know her more then more scale-like flying will look great. -
St8us free plan RCM&E April 2025. Q&A's
Futura57 replied to Mike Freeman's topic in RCM&E Plan Builders
Congratulations @Mike Freeman on getting your design published in RCM&E. I'm still waiting for my copy to arrive before I can read your article. I had my first design published last June (also put out as a free online issue last year). I've been working on another, a foam EDF, coincidentally. Too many distractions for me at the moment to write a build article. Good luck with it all. 👍 -
I concur
