Evening all

I am putting my Comp-ARF 3m Extra 260 up forsale as I am simply not giving this the use it deserves, and I am going to downsize to a smaller model. This is a great setup for someone, which is well tested and flies fantastic. Grab yourself a great deal and get one of the best flying IMAC models available. I have the original shipping crate available so sending it around the country won't be a problem.

No plan B as such, just not giving this thing much use so I am going to downsize to a 100" airframe with a DA85 that will fit in a station wagon (no not selling the Evo!) and sell off my trailer as hauling that around just doesn't do it for me!

Don't worry I will still be flying IMAC etc at this stage I am thinking a 35% Hanger 9 260 might be the go.

Hey mate

Yer don't think heli's are my thing ... who knew a raptor 90 could boomstrike in mid air and chop the whole tail off!! I think I will leave my ugly attempts at Piro-Flipping for the sim! Never mind just over $600 in parts ordered last night should have it as good as new again .....

Yea I reckon its just what Alec needs, but I think a composite airframe might be too much for him!

Your F16 looks pretty good aye, and i think after yesterday Heather will be wanting a Model T Ford!

Hey Moped

Read my last post, just above yours. Pretty much sums up yesterday's heli flying effort!

What have you been up to? Any flying or just banding?

[NZ Scythe]

That sucks about your heli... I'm sure it looked impressive tho!

I haven't really done any flying for a long time, I've been pretty bust with work for the last month or two and have been spending a lot of time with the band. We played our first gig a couple of weeks ago - it went well and we sounded great. We've recently taken on a new guitarist and he's pretty good, we now able to do a lot of stuff we couldn't before so it won't be long now till we're doing our first world tour!

I rekon Taylor should buy your Extra - he needs all the help he can get!

[mikeymikeymikey]

So your like a boyband right? Sing covers of Westlife and Boyzone I'm sure you'll have a huge fan base of 13 year old girls moped lol.

[alec taylor]

i spoke to jonathon to day and he told me about his new project. sorry guys, my lips are sealed. alex

[NZ Scythe]

Boyband... not exactly, we have a pretty hot 24 year old female lead vocalist and we cover a whole range of stuff from the Chilli Peppers, Muse, Killers, Strokes, White Stripes, No Doubt, Cranberries... the list goes on!

[alec taylor]

you are right about pulling a trailer every time you go flying . if i had to do that to go flying i wouldnt get in much flying . thats why i bought my strip. the first 125 flights on the kitfox i had to trailer it to gore airfield 10 klms away. a real pain. . alex
