I’ve taken the unusual step of reporting the item...it’s just a plain lie.

This website has a retract recommendation

try quincessential

For hub covers I used a couple of tins of beer

1. By the cheapest beer you can find, it will be of very thin aluminium. It might also taste awful
2. Cut the bottom of the tin away. The dome inside will face outward and the flange can be screwed into the plastic wheel hub.
3. Recover from hangover.

Just finished watching **THIS** on BBC4. Thoroughly recommended.

Do these pilots have the one routine and do it at every show ? Or would they fly whatever they felt? Great video...

Iron on fabric, heat shrinkable is what I used to work with. Oracover is very expensive. Hobbyking might have something, I haven’t used any of their coverings.

You can get green nylon covering. I know a clubmate is covering a Giant Mannock in green nylon soon. I hope to go and have a lesson or two. I will report back.

I have used this with Solarlac paint and had some acceptable results

You da man

What do you imagine the final weight will be? A kilo or two?

Making progress, mind you, there’s nothing else to do in this dismal weather

Cheers Bert...sound advice that I will keep in mind

the spats will be off for off for a while...they’re only placed on the wheels to see if it’s ok

Scotland vs Japan...8 mins to go. brilliant stunning game

Still no maiden

ive decided to change the UC. The original had too much flex for my liking. I’ve bought a carbon fibre one from AliExpress. It’s for a Yak 50cc and has almost the same dimension as the old one. The CF has some flex but no way feels like a a jelly

Dont forget to make sure the steel ring that sits on the cap collar is in place. It stops the cap from falling off....though I suspect that might not happen if you hit it ‘ard enough

Component shop has given me excellent service

Nice and tidy work

If you take off the retaining ring from the plug cap it makes putting the cap on easier......but it is important to keep the plug on.

Obvious question first.....35mhz or 2.4 ?

Try and reduce interference by having some space between the Rx and CDI circuits, not easy to do in some models

Keep the CDI Box well away from the Rx.

Using some ferrite rings might help on the switch and battery wires

Myself and a friend did the same sort of thing off Perran sands with a couple of SAS Wildthings. We only stopped as it was gusting to 45mph.....not that those couldn’t fly, they could but we couldn’t throw them off fast enough!
