  Can anyone advise me on how to fine tune the bird.    ie;  c of g,aileron settings and differential, elevator.etc;       Thanks spud4.

I have bought a big bird and like it very much, I took Toms advice and went for 2 meters plus. But having said that I would like an erwin as well, I am hoping a second hand one might  turn up.

Just thought I would let you know I have got myself a Big Bird, Andy rates them I hope you do too? so maybe I will see you someday at  Long Mynd  I get down that way quite often ,well four times a year..   Would you please give me a ring when there is an event on it might coincide with when I am going to go to Worcester.   Thanks again for all your advice.

Well Tom you have told me everything I need to know . Absolutely brilliant many thanks.Spud.  I would like to meet you and your mates someday, maybe you could let me know when there an event on that you are going to.

Is f3b a better all rounderTom,

  I havemade note of that Tom, I have had a look at some of the larger ones so here I go again down another road f3j,f3f, f3b.?. It has to be said they really look fantastic.   Cheers Tom.   David.   (Spud).

Well Tom, I am looking, quite patient,but being in the right place at the right time Mmmm; story of my life,but I will keep  looking. Whats the tragi 702 you know about ? You say you like them big and fast as you know I have a Fiesta I have had her for a number of years now she still puts a smile on my face not the fastest but still has what it takes for me to have a good day on the fells.

Tom. I can fly better than I can spell. I`m in a rush to much to do, you know how it is I`m sure.

I am probably going to end up with an Erwin Tom, but at the moment I seem to be finding all sorts of models that look and sound the part, I do not know of anybody rear me that flies these exciting models so maybe I should make an effort to find out where I can go and see some in action. As you know they do not come cheep so I do`nt want to get  it wrong,at the moment I am  relying on you and Andy for advice and very helpful you have both been. Thanks.

Thanks Tom. Do you know anything about the Elixir 3 meter,sounds like it is a f3j type model .

Anyone know anything about this two meter sloper by Frankenmodellbau.

I have a Fiesta in excellent condition that I do not  use ,I am saving up for a carbon  mouldy and have been thinking about selling  some of my collection, I will probably regret it but if someone makes a reasonable offer I may part with her.Would even consider a part ex: for the right  model.       Cheers  David.

Hello Andy,       I live in South Cumbria, My son and I were thinking about going somewhere to  see the likes of yourself and see if we can pick up some tips especially d.s.ing and types of models used. Maybe  you could let me know where to go or better still where you and your mates go?                           Thanks again for your advice David.

Once again Andy and Tom thanks for your time answering my questions. Can I ask you one more question then I will leave you in peace. Please give me your views on the Opus.                  Once again thanks. David.                               p.s. Then thanks to you both I will buy one of them with confidence!

Hi Andy, Could you please tell more about your views on the big bird.Thanks David.
