I have spent the day restoring a TN Hurricane that was left to me in a great friends will (RIP Garry)

I built this for him 5 years ago when i built four at once.

so now it is home and will be flown again very soon.

I also picked up the retro aerobatic model that i built for him a year later, this needs bringing back to full glory and flown.

The tuccano in the back ground is an artf surprise and will also be flown again soon.

This is my Aerolab Locamp, An Italian designed kit plane. it is 1/6th scale, 60" span and powered by an OS 48 Surpass which blends in rather nicely with the dummy engine. That dummy engine took almost as long as the model to build.

FLaps a re so effective that the model will not come down when they are lowered.

Thanks Robert and Martin.

After modifying a Sig Kadet Senior with aileron and flaps I was looking for a similar electric low wing model. Unfortunately the 500 pages LoCamp manual followed by Peter for his superb model was no longer available, but the owner of the Golden Age Aeroworks put me in contact with the Italian designer and he kindly sent me the CAD 3 views.

I got the undercarriage from spares of the H9 1/4 Cub and the radial engine from Williams Brothers Wasp

The engine is an Himax 5018 on a 16x8 prop and 4S 5000, set for a 600 watts max output

Flying weight 6 Kgs
