  1. Typical of most Mossies I've seen and heard of, apart from my little cartoon one that is! Note square fuse, well square everything really yet it still looks like a Mossie.
  2. Too much building imo, having to build 2 fuselages may put off a lot of people, same with the P38, 2 booms to build.
  3. The only 'weak' point with the BF110 is the U/C so having a dolly take off / belly (nacelle) lander would get over that. I would go for one!
  4. Yes but I would go for the matt finish as it does save some work although you still need to give it the once over with fine grade sandpaper.
  5. Ah, the BF110, a superb model, here is the maiden flight of mine a couple of years ago Plus a couple more flights
  6. I use a cheap car primer such as this and it works really well as long as I have rubbed the lam film down with a very fine sandpaper to key it. I know that others have used plastic primer (such as David has listed above) and have had success with that too.
  7. If your masking tape is too sticky stick it on your clothes first. It will pick up dust from your clothes which will reduce the stickiness of the tape. The added bonus is that you are getting cleaner clothes at the same time.
  8. Here's another one! Clubmate Steve had never built a model before so this is his first attempt, personally I think that he did fine job. He asked me to maiden it and after adding some nose weight (he was using a 2200 mAh 4s battery) it was ready to go.
  9. Nope! the A test will require you to fly a reversed circuit, in other words if you have been flying clockwise circuits then you will be required to fly one anti-clockwise, in doing so you may well perform a procedure turn but not necessarily so. The only stipulation is that the initial turn to reverse the circuit must be away from the pilot's box.
  10. Too true Jon, neither of mine, the 200 or the 310, have excessive vibration, in fact the 310 is quite smooth. I flew my 310 powered Giant Revolver again last Friday, the first time for a few months, and re-aquatinted myself with the awesome power and lovely sound. Hopefully take it out again tomorrow as I had a spare prop in the prop drawer!
  11. I haven’t got a clue and have heard nothing back from AGC Geoff. My one has been with them since last September. Jon has said that they will be done and that the parts have been made but how long does one wait?
