Tim Mackey Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Hi Phil - the last email did exactly the same PM me you number via the forum - we will be there around eleven I guess. Weather is perfect for most stuff today except lead sleds. Bring full battledress and hot drinks.

Ultymate Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Had a good session on the Orme today Sunday 22nd with Timbo, Mikey Matteo, Rocket Ron, Bob Gadsby, Steve Streetly, and not forgetting Phil Wood who if he makes many more trips over from the Wirral will qualify for the title Philet of Fish. As I left I could hear much merriment echoing from the flight line mid combat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Mackey Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Yep...jolly good time had by all I had the now long forgotten pleasure of reliveing Mr Wood and son of their virginity - here's a shot of them both before the first flight of the day. Dad and son sure got into it all by late afternoon, they even managed to knock each other out of the sky...with some considerable damage to both models. I think they enjoyed themselves Final score... Timbo 6 Phil 2 Mikey 1 PS in case you are not familiar with slope combat rules and think I need moderating - any model which has not yet been hit in combat / forced to ground is considered a virgin Heres a couple of pictures of my mate and ace painter of Jarts and other things Steve Streetly - with his fast foamy M60 - spackled wing version. The afternoon was rounded off with a lovely flying display of his 3 metre Ellipse. Dont ya just love to here a big moldy screeching on a low fast pass across the ridge As usual...click for the big picture.

Mikey Wood Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Yes, GREAT DAY!!! I surprised myself many times with my flying ability. I think I surprised Dad aswell because he kept asking if I was ok. I was busy trying to chase Timbo, and doing (quite) a successful job. WON'T BE LONG TIM' Can't wait for the next one, Will be fun to get Kev In the fight aswell. :D Mikey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Mackey Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hee hee - glad you enjoyed yourselves lads - and a big thanks from me too fro the excellent catering supplies - Iawnski had better watch out or his title of head chef may soon be under threat The missus asked me whether I was hungry when I goit home, as all I had taken was few scones ( scoffed by everyone else I hasten to add ) and I didnt have the heart to tell her that you guys had done your usual sterling job of emptying the local tesco shelves of all things sticky Err 6 points it is Phil.....well, using my rules anyway 1 point for each force to ground ( X 3 of your thing ) = 3 3 points for a direct hit resulting in reasonably severe damage and grounding X1 yours Plus, I should really get extra brownie points for actually flying and trimming out correctly your home made polygonthingumagiggywhatisddodah on what is not my normal mode ! You both did very well in all honesty, and that Mikey is gonna have to be tamed !!

Tim Mackey Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 I have stripped mine too. The wing has had 3 carbon fibre rods shoved up it - ouch - from the tip inwards, as the last 6 to 8 inches on one panel is effectively broken...and has been gooped up and filled in before with hot glue etc. The fin has been removed and replaced. The fus was snapped in 3 places under all the strapping, and worst of all, I found 1 x cell of the LiPo pack was puffed badly so its been ditched. New 1800 2s pack fitted, new switch and wiring, ply overlap plates slipped in-between foam and existing broken ply sides, and the other splits and breaks have been glued and reinfoirced with C/F weave tape and epoxy. Most of fus is now re-strapped with new CW tape, and the wing has set back reasonably OK. Tomorrow sees the new fin made, fus re-fitted to wing, fin fitted and then the lot re-strapped as required, then re-covered over 75% of model. Should be ready for battle again by Wednesday. 2 new kits were shipped this afternoon. Had a lie down after the phone call with Alan Head STILL no Jarty wings, and Reed is investigating - sounds bad. PS you look bloomin awful in that photo Edited By Timbo - Moderator on 23/03/2009 19:58:31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
