Blumming hell didn't know the ID number was going to be that long 😳

I think I will arty farty sign write it on the one side near the tailplane.

Hi just been successful in gaining my BMFA Certificate of Competency and have paid the CAA fee, just waiting on the Operators ID number. Reading it says to display the ID on or in your model, is there a percific place to put it or any where will suffice .

I purchased them back in the 80’s along with 4" diameter one's, going to use them on my junior 60, had them on my Quaker Flash and they looked great and did the job nicely

I did my test glide in a field with long grass for silage, very cushioned landing 😄

I live on a farm so fly in the field next to mine, Grass kept short by sheep, but its very rough ground the first set of wheels I put on where fairly firm rubber making landings a wee bit harsh, so replaced them with an old pair of bouncy blow up boots, it's raining here at present so no test flight, hopefully tomorrow.

Thank you Outrunner, that's good to know, I think I will be going with the 3542/05 like you I'm a pootler hahaha

Outrunner may I enquire what weight yours has come in at please

Cheers Outrunner, that sounds good.

Prop sizes have been suggested 3542/05 a 10x 6 4240/10 a 12" to a 14"

Hi, really pleased with my first venture into electric powered flight. I'm already planning my next build, I have the plans for BBs Junior 60 and would like to convert to electric. I've had a couple of suggestions of motor size Tornado Thumper V3 3542/05 And the Tornado Thumper 4240/10 Not sure which to go for, My flying preferences are nice and slow relaxing flights, Could I please ask for your thoughts on these.

Another successful flying evening, another 4 lovely enjoyable flights , getting the heart working fast a couple of times haha , overall really relaxing, fresh air lovely countryside and a bag of sheep poo to take home for the greenhouse.
