Pete, your DR1 flying was something to behold! Looked so good in the sun as you passed by low in wing over. Liked the Precedent too. Sounded good. Good day all round.
Well done with the video Pete and thanks again for your assistance. Next time I will bring the rescued Ripmax Extreme with a replacement receiver for a test flight. I never thought I would get a model plane complete with an engine (Super Tiger 51) and radio for less than I paid in 1962 for my Junior 60 , I am sure Dave will be impressed?
Blustery here today( Sunday) but please let me know when the weather is favourable for another trip although I am due to visit Epsom Downs on Friday and not Thursday as originally planned.
Was a good day. Sorry I didn't fly your Extreme Mike, I had to shoot off. I turned up Sunday too to fly but was way too windy but luckily I brought my kayak too so spent the day on the lake with the pirates lol.
Trev, the radio malfunctioned anyway so I need to replace the receiver and crystal and carry out another range check before the Extreme flies. I guess it's much the same as a Weston Cougar but with a bit more power?
It was a nice FUN day Peter. Thanks for posting the pics.
