Le Club des Chevaliers de la Base Aérienne de Thirsk! 😎 Challenging! Thinks I need to go back to a Junior 60 for a week.

Decent spring like morning and the young man’s first solo IC flight. 👍

A few options for consideration: Saito 30 OS 20 FP K&B 20 (little different) OS 15 Electric Conversion (1400kv)

Great thread, Jonathan, lovely clean build. Motivated me to have a go too. Have made a start. 👍

Funny. The perfect elixir to perpetuate your long running threads. 🤣 Have a good weekend all.

Well put points, GG. I think the general helpfulness and knowledge outweigh any negative aspects, also not forgetting that some do use anything as an excuse to ‘become’ offended these days, often contrary to any intention or spirit.

Such is the ‘rich tapestry’, but still, how did this thread end up so brilliantly and so quickly at dubious gardeners and flat Earth theory (rhetorical - please) 🤣 Hands up - who was Friday night drink-posting. ☺️ Honourable starting points, Chris, certainly another interesting thread. Makes one miss the good old days of just shouting at the ‘Readers Letters’ section at the sanctity of your own kitchen table. Sweepstake on this getting locked before page 3? (Don’t mention castor today) 🤔 shall I submit reply …. … ..

Cracking day yesterday at probably the best club in North Yorkshire, no wind, slight warmth in the sun and light until 5pm. Hooray! ☀️

I assume that to run in my 55AX, that I could use the same method as would apply to a 46AX? Maybe add a little more castor oil and run it richer as it is bigger? (Tongue in cheek - Just kidding guys) 🤣 Have a good weekend all.

Yes, about 20% back and 1/2 of the way in from the tip of the length of the ailerons. About a 1/4 of one wings span. Mostly trial and error really but an improvement . 👍

Useful post, thanks. Fitted some tape last month to a troublesome model with the same issue, works well: https://www.hyperflight.co.uk/products.asp?code=TURB-TAPE

Few piccies with @Nick Cripps from the Lake this last week. 👌

Few choice shots from Thirsk Model Club today. 👍 Felt like spring by late morning. ☀️
