Steve Colman Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Just a short video of my (very semi-scale) Jamara RF4D. Shoy yesterday at the club field. Steve. Edited By Steve Colman on 10/07/2016 21:06:34 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Colman Posted July 11, 2016 Author Share Posted July 11, 2016 Hi Percy, Yes, it was the undercarriage I was referring to. However, for a very cheap Chinese sourced kit it flies very nicely in calm conditions, as can be seen in the video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrell Woodward Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Posted by Percy Verance on 11/07/2016 13:33:52: but a Fournier needs to be big I think...... I had the same thoughts Percy, so I purchased Mick's 1/3 plans..... Tis one of those scale subjects that looks 'right' at any size And retains the grace of the full size as seen in Steve C's vid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Colman Posted July 11, 2016 Author Share Posted July 11, 2016 Percy, this particular model has not been available for some years now and is very average in quality, Still, as Darrell points out, it still manages to fly very gracefully. One day, maybe long into the future, a more exotic version along the lines you and Darrell mention may make it's way into my possession.

Darrell Woodward Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Steve, there is also a small trad kit by Westwings **LINK** @ 60" span, which I looked / re-looking into into for 'local to my locale' flying.... I have cliffs on my doorstep so it would make a good / unusual sloper with a 'get me home' up front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Colman Posted July 11, 2016 Author Share Posted July 11, 2016 That would make a very nice little project Darrell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 're-looking' into is your fault Steve It would be a nice small / cheap project as you say. Out of interest, what span is your model?

Steve Colman Posted July 11, 2016 Author Share Posted July 11, 2016 Darrell, sorry if my little video contribution has caused you some anxiety that you could have done without. The span of the model is 1.8m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
