Great to see that you are doing so well. I've had that kit for close to 12 years and never got around to building it, you get for 2 weeks and have made so much progress. :) Hope Tammy doesn't get to...

As all I have available to fly is the Cessna(at the moment) I don't think I'll be going down as it is going to be hard to take off and land in the mud. I'll wait and see if Chris makes a report and wh...

Ah...Those were the days...... The only good thing I can say about the rain is that it has come while I've had a doze of the flu and probably would not have made it down to the field anyway. Hopefull...

I'll be down in the morning too, but I'm going to reserve judgment as to whether or not I fly. I'm a bit worried about the Cessna hitting the mud on landing and flipping. I'll see what the more experi...

Hello all, From sunny Brisbane. :D If you had the weather I've had all week up here the field would be nice and dry. Kev, you should check with Kieran to see when he might be placing another order wi...

I guess these are turbine driven? Look really cool. I too hope someday to have one(or two) but only ducted fan. Afraid turbines are too rich for my pension. :) Hope you are enjoying the holiday. chee...

Love that F14 Tomcat. Can see myself flying one of those later on when I can fly properly. Wonder how the retracts would go down at our field. Hand Launched version a little bit cheaper but I do like ...

looking at that search area I reckon we must have been very close to it this afternoon maybe the owner who's property it crashed in were out and did not hear or see anything. Hopefully you will have s...

My wife has bought me a couple of new planes and some Spektrum receivers as an anniversary present. All I need to do now is learn to fly properly :D The first one is the Ultrafly F16 pusher prop mod...

Love the photos. Especially like those last few pictures of the F9F Panther. One of my all time favorites. Every time Fox Classics run the Korean War movie "The Bridges at Toko Ri" I have to watch it...

I'll be there for sure. I have to try and recover the Electrafun which is stuck about 30 meters up the Electricity high tension mast. Slight mishap I had this afternoon :roll: Was going well until ...

Yea can't hit anyone from where it's at. Tried to hit it with a tennis ball this afternoon but it was out of my range. I'm going to bring a tennis racket with me in the morning. If that fails I'll ha...

Great Info there Steve. I too hope to try out ducted fans one day. As you said there is so much to learn about this hobby. I love the research and planning that's required and of course flying the fin...

Steve, sorry I can't help you with your setup of the radio but I'm glad that you have started this thread. Perhaps someone can point me to somewhere where I can learn a bit about setting expo ,dual r...

Love it................. Get me one. That would be ideal down the field. :twisted: Seriously though, what's the go with the park rangers? Can't they fine the little bastards? With all the space there...

Ground is still rather soft under foot. After seeing the damage first hand today I think we would need a heavy roller to flatten the ruts. Either that, or we need a load of sand to fill them in. Agree...

Really enjoyable weekend of flying. Saturday was quite windy but today was prefect weather and I'm really starting to enjoy flying the electrofun. Surprised that there were so few people there over th...

Glad you got it all worked out Steve. So what do you reckon? Still going to buy a Spektrum? Maybe you won't need to now and you can put the money to better use ( new planes) :) Any news on the funjet...

Yea I've just been looking at that. Very tempting :) :) :) What do you think Steve reckon you can get better or should we seriously consider buying this? Only thing that worries me is the esc sitt...

Very gusty wind....but we flew anyway :) The EF got buffeted around quite a bit and landing was quite challenging. At one stage high above my Electrical tower I was blown into a quite involuntary vi...

Steve, what motor and esc are you using in the funjet? Kieran, what are you planning to put in yours? Paul

Thanks for those links. I read in some forum that 28mm dia was the largest size that will fit on the funjet mount, so these should be ok. If we wanted a bigger size do you reckon it would be very hard...

Yea I read that somewhere too. Had another fly of Kieran's striker today and really enjoyed it.. Can't wait to get the funjets Paul

Nice one mate Getting close to maiden now. Let's hope tomorrow is kind with the weather. dad

That looks like a lot of fun, and quite hard too. No need for arresting wires on that flight deck. :)
463,991
Yea bad luck Steve. Those Electrical wires are a little bit closer than you think. At least you got to see yours fly, 2 of mine went into the ground from the hand launch today. Thank God for epoxy.......

Repairs all complete, Mustang and F16 ready for next attempt. Took the opportunity to embed some lead into the nose of the F16 while it was open. Bit of guesswork on how much but I think I erred in th...

Looking good already, No doubt about you, no mucking around get right back into it. :) Wind was a bit too strong today so we only had limited flying time. Even Kieran's stryker got buffeted around up...

Just adding to Kev's description on binding the Rx. You have to be pressing and holding the trainer switch on when you turn on the Tx. Your Rx will start beeping and led will flash until it finds the ...

I got it............. :) $19.99 plus shipping. That's a bummer as that's $29. Anyway we're in the video business Kev ;) Paul

Sorry I gave you wrong info Rob. DX6i needs you to hold the trainer switch. Did not know that DX7 had a dedicated bind switch. Hope you have got it working ok. Paul

Nice ski run Steve. Was that using the key ring camera? Not bad if it was. Weather today in Sydney was great for flying. Unfortunately Kieran (flying Darren's T28 ) and Kev (flying his T28) got a litt...

Airframe is all back together again. Wing too is now repaired. Luckily most of it went back together like a large jigsaw puzzle. :) Now just touching up the paintwork so that at least it looks presen...

Quote: -- Shame about the midair however a bit of glue and a quick buff should set things straight -- Rob, Don't think so in this instance. Darren's plane got totaled :( In fact the motor is now in...
