Ok Guy's, as previously notified, the Gold Coast IMAC is off, we have secured a venue at Toowoomba at TAA, I realise that for some this is a little more travel, for this I apologise, however, I think the venue is well suited, and I sincerely thank the TAA members for making their field available.
To be fair to TAA, I ask that all respond in the short future (48hours?) so I can inform them that the comp will proceed. More details to follow, thanks for your patience, and I hope all that can will support this event. Please enter At www.scaleaeros.com.au

Regards
Mick

Have any of you guys bought a 27 percent World Models ARF Ultimate Biplane.
I don't know whether you guys had any problems with the lower wings locating pins not fitting correctly. I spent sometime on this but it pissed me off so I threw it out the back door and jumped on it. Then stuffed it into the bin. don't RIP Ultimate Biplane. Didn't even fly this piece of junk!!!!!

I remember when World Models ARF kits were built well, but it looks like they are not very good anymore

AAAAHHHHH Don't say that.!!! I brought one about a month ago, but I obviously haven't put it together yet. Thats not something I really wanted to hear. All the other world models ARF's I've put together have been good as gold. BobbyG has put a couple together so he may know more.....

Hey Biff while you're Down Under, don't forget to visit the boys at Boganville. We might even be able to scramble a lefty tranny for you, along with a transmitter.

Awesome site mate, keep it up and will catch up with you some time during the year.
