I was at the field today between 14:00 & 15:00 all on my own , good flying too. There is a dead sheep along the fence line towards the gate from the pits, I saw the farmer so reported this to her. I hope no one had plans for a BBQ .

That looks smart Zaidy, will be really nice to see some scale grasscutters flying, have always fancied an airwolf myself, loved the programme when it first came out, have different thoughts on it now when a few programmes were shown not so long ago.

the set up
Hi Mark, well it flies!! The engine is an OS37 on the supplied Hirobo silencer and is very quiet. The servos are all JR 811 with a JR 490T gyro. The tail is a little loose at present but now we have test flown and I have established the correct tail offset I can anchor the tail pushrod outer and get rid of a bit of slop which should tighten things up. he blades are at present 550mm woodies which are OK for this style of model. Fuel used was OPTIFUEL 20% and after a couple of false starts due to mechanical bugs she flew like a pussy cat. I now have to tear out the mechanics so she can go to the paint shop!! Zaid had a huge grin on his face even though I did not let him waggle the sticks!!!!
Hows the Hughes 500 going?

DaveS
