Don Fry Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Was a similar sale, Japanese seller, a couple of weeks ago. I assumed it was some sortof get lost in the post scam between the seller and acomplice, as the words go, conspiring together to defraud another, namely, E bay.

Not a mark on it. Therefore it could now be considered a collectors item or museum piece. Seeing what some Chinese buyers pay for old cracked pots it could be considered a bargain. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ad was probably written by a non modeller, the kind of person I’ve had ask me what my models are models of. They don’t seem to understand when I’ve tried to explain that some of our models are not scale models OF anything in particular, they’re just small aircraft in their own right.

Andy Stephenson Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 People used to buy those because of the nostalgia of owning a diesel. Someone in our club bought one but had it converted back to glow because of the high compression causing a loud knocking sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea the knock on acceleration was normal but they would knock like crazy if run hot. They were not easy to use but ran really well if set correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denis Watkins Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 He admits he knows nothing about RC planes, and has 100% positive feedback, that is obtained freely from his customers, and feedback cannot be bought or obtained in any other way but by fair dealing. The model cannot be worth a tenner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon H Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 To be fair it isnt that bad. I have seen plenty worse that have been considered 'airworthy' it looks like a db barnstormer 72 and they are just over 200 quid as a plan pack with the sheet/strip wood. Not sure a £50 saving is worth having a tatty model vs new though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
