TRY TRY TRY AGAIN

KIWI HOPEFUL AT IT AGAIN!

Please count the Kiwi in August prize draw

Thanks for all the info Edward.My weight all up is not far away from the suggested weight by the mgfers although the little .30 4s is a weighty motor and C/G is slightly nose heavy at 115mm  measured from the leading edge of the centre section.Movement forward and aft doesn,t seem to make a great deal of difference.Members at the club advise "just fly it".Easy to say when its not your model!! Weather of course here at present  is mid winter and flying days are not frequent,however I,m not in any hurry and will be patient until summer arrives with more mellow conditions.I have plenty to fly in the meantime,hope to send photos soon!

  Thanks Adam,actually we have an Adam in our club with a Tiger Moth and will touch base with him before any flying is attempted! I have run the engine a few times and it seems reliable enough and suggests enough power to fly this model!Suggested weight all up is 1.780kg.Mine weighs in at 1.82kg!Just under 4lb?? Will take it carefully for a while and see how I go!Its a beautifully constructed model and would make me very sad to see it in a crumpled heap!! Instructions say CG 105>115mm from front of leading edge centre section and it does balance there as they say!! Brian

PLEASE PUT ME IN THE DRAW FOR THE SEA FURY

          Adam..Power source ASP .30 4/stroke                 Edward..Centre section measures 85mmx160mm  Wingspan 50"          Kit is from Pacific Aeromodel Mfg Inc..          Sounds as if it could be from a different srable??           Thoughts??            Brian Webber           

How about a win for a Kiwi

Hi I have an unflown Tiger at present.It sure looks as if it will be a success!! Hope I,m not going to be disapointed.Cof G needs to be correct as you are probably aware Mine has only two sets of flying wires port and starboard as a Addendum for this model! Hope to be able to report some good news,but thanks for the info anyhow.
