FlyinBrian Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 August before last I bought a Multiplex Heron RR for £300 delivered from Kings Lyn model shop. It has been great. It is beutifully bade, takes minutes to install the receiver and you are ready to go (obviously have to set your Tx to suit) It flys really well, soars well in any hint of lift and is quite aerobatic.

I bought the kit version and outfitted it myself, but yes it's a great all round model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave windymiller Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I was in my LMS yesterday and was shown the ripmax on line catalog for dealers. Something like 200 types of artf models listed, 4 in stock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Collinson Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Heron, good plane. 3 or 4 at my club. Good ply, SLEC surely? Scroll right! BTC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onetenor Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 There is a guy on this forum named Iglesias. No not Julio his cousin. He advertised ply for sale and offered samples. I took up his offer and received 4 pieces of nice quality dark ply. I don't know the wood type but is pretty hard and rigid. Even plies and cuts cleanly. Nice smell too. Could be chestnut. Anyway I recommend contacting him to see what he can supply..I intend putting his samples to good use once I'm out of hospital. They were useful sizes.
