Which 1/4 Scale WW1 Kit to Choose?
Alan Hilton replied to payneib's topic in Scale and Semi-Scale kits
A mate built the mick reeves camel It was a major faf to build and it flew like a brick .I had the db pup which was great to build and flew well ,it’s not all that scale like though .I also had a db se5 which I bought competed ,it flew like brick .A flair dr1 was easy to build and flew well ,except for ground handling ,which was tricky, again not that true to scale -

Alan Hilton replied to GrumpyGnome's topic in Flying Field Reports and Chat
I have a Tony Ninjus gnat ,the larger one .I had similar problems getting it airborne .I bought a hobby king catapult .I get a mate to hold the fin ,give it full beans then activate the catapult ,this works great .I have had many successful flights doing this -

Hi Richard I haven’t had a form -
Bill also makes turtle decks

The carb spray bar should ideally be level with the tank centre line but I have found that somewhere within the tank is ok .I had a DB 1/4 pup with a laser 200 v twin .The tank was way above the carb but the engine ran fine if I didn’t fly inverted
