Gidday
Some flying actually happened today. Tony and Keith managed to brave the elements for a brief fly before the wind became too strong. Chris and I offered moral support while ensuring our hands were securely planted in warm pockets.( our own warm pockets)
Yesterday was the day for flying and as promised we saw the return of a past president sporting an electric, in the form of Terry Cosnett. (see pics) Terry has flown this plane previously with a speed 600 motor and suggested that the skin remained firmly attached to the rice pudding. Having updated with a brushless motor and suitable lipos the performance is now described as mind blowing. While not admitting to being hooked on electrics he is certainly taking a decent nibble on the bait.
It's pretty fair to say that Terry doesn't throw anything away, not even scraps of covering. (see pics again) For obvious reasons I suggest this plane be named Patch.
The track in is still driveable so fingers crossed we don't get too many big downpours.
Cheers
Grant
