Some really interesting articles .Couldn't put it down .I just loved the one by Brian Winch especially .Man after my own heart may I say .Very refreshing to learn new things from others experience .As for "masking tape" --What old modeller needs to read about it .Sorry Alex ,I realise you have your "niche" .

[WolstonFlyer]

Mine arrived today and I have just skimmed through and it looks like another good issue.

The masking tape article seems rather long to basically say "Masking tape is good to hold things in place".

[LMA Dave]

Hi all, yes mine arrive today as well, looks like a great read from what I have seen up to now. All’s I can say is, I want an Avro York now so I can fly it at the home of Avro, Woodford Aerodrome.

[Nev Haycox]

Mind arrived today but I'm saving it to break the monotony off work tomorrow night, shhhhhhhhh, don't tell the boss

I received my Radio Control Models and Electronics magazine today. Put the kettle on and made a sandwich. Sat down and flicked through the various articles in anticipation of reaching anything to do with a glider or powered glider flying for that matter! But alas there was nothing and by tea time the magazine was already shelved. I hope next months mag will have at least a little content to cater for the 9% of glider fliers here.

Very good, Stephen - but it is an issue many of us glider guiders have muttered about.

We've increased the amount of glider content in the mag in the last year or so, a fact noted by glider flyers but, sadly, events conspired against us with this issue. Material subject matter can ebb and flow a bit sometimes but this often means you'll find that subsequent issues will compensate.

[Jimbo565]

It looks like Tim's Clean Sweep 60 could be next on the board

[Chris Bott - Moderator]

Yes very tempting indeed that Clean Sweep Mr Hooper - Darn you!

[Biggles' Elder Brother - Moderator]

Really Chris! Language!

My Trainer having reached 10 years old has worn out it's engine... so I've fitted a new one, given a it few flights and all is well.

Two days later May's RCM&E arrrived and I read Graham's Editorial, wow! Exactly my reasoning behind treating my trainer to a new engine.

Now I've just got to get the original sticky backed covering off before treating to a new skin as well.

bit gutted Danny fentons scale column did not make it, i was waiting with real eagerness for his bit about a sliding canopy, come on Danny i can't do my db spit without you first making a hash of it !!

[BernieNUFC]

I thought this was one of the best issues so far,it carried some very interesting articles and the variety was enough to give everyone something to read, and even though i am not into certain areas i enjoyed reading them, most of all especially enjoyed the columns this time.

[IanN]

Good issue. Great to see the WOO, nice interview. And next months' free plans sound promising

[MikeS]

Mine arrived yesterday. A good read as always. i found the article about Power boxes interesting. I have been planning on using them in my larger machines.

I'm saying nowt.

It's a very good magazine, I enjoy a subscriber edition every month but in an effort to be constructive:

Pete Lowe always tries to cover too many issues and models in his articles. It gives the very strong flavour of space-filling.

Articles on techniques are frustrating for learners when they are continued to the next issue. An example is the recent excellent treatise on soldering. But a reader wants to be ale to solder his undercarriage there and then. He does not want to wait until next month to learn the final secrets.

And what happened to the Editor's DB Sport and Scale RAF SE5 build blog? Does he need someone to finish it for him?

[LMA Dave]

Well I finally got chance to sit down and read the mag last night and what a good read it was too, well done RCM&E. I have also pick up loads of tips for our mag the LMA Journal I hope you don’t mind me nicking some of your ideas.
