Thanks, Whistler, for your comment's, don't know where all the other guy's who supported me, comments are, maybe too many, apart from Antnee and David, great to see that you are "keeping the dream alive", What size is it, just remember to keep all incidences to 0 deg, tail plane> wing> engines.  IT works......... send a pic.........Barry

PM stands for "Private Message" its like email but without giving away your email address. You will see at the bottom of most posts in gray the words "Message member" if you click on this you can send a message to that member which will only go to that individual.

You will see at the top of this page on the left  "-My Inbox" this is where the messages are received.

Oh, by the way, because the right engine cut out, ( panic, panic) we didn't have time to get the "flaps down" in that circuit, but as you can see it really didn't need them, after inspection at home, split muffler to tank tube, even tho it's new tube,,better get some high temp tubing in future........we're always learning...

Thats one nice piece of work mate, well done! I have found a set of plans at 1:12 scale by Jack lynn Bale which look promising and another with extended wing for PSS but as I am all packed up to move howse sum day (when we manage to sell this stately pile) I cant start work on anything large.

Hope to have a new workroom once we have a new abode but for the time being have to be content with looking at the plans,

                                regards.

Great Vid Barry Like it, I have enough with a single engine so I think I will do some more practice first,before graduate to a twin
Oh BTW did you get the U/C to Function ? it flies so fast I couldn't see!!
Nice one. Regards Antnee

Along with "battle dress?, they are the next to be added, I ,was concerned about the landing speed, before finishing the U/C, If you have 2 reliable motors that don't F...k around, then there is no worry's, on aircraft where the motors are mounted close to the fuz, eg, DC3, PBY Cat.and there are others, less chance of a  crash. Antnee, thanks for your comments, Appreceiated   Barry

Looks really good in the air Barry,  seems to handle well even with just the one fire lit   you should be right chuffed m8.
