I am hoping to get there mid morning Friday for alot of practice. Went out a tried the new intermediate sequence and there is alot of inverted flying. Unfortunately I pulled up instead of push done.

Will now have to fly the 260 instead and see what everyone else sees in the 260

If anyone is interested, let me know and we'll get some extra!
I will be there Friday night but not sure about evening meal.

That doesn't sound good mate. Will it fly again?

G'day Haggy,
I have recently ordered & received some small hardware (<M3) from Microfasteners. Their service and delivery was excellent.
For the sizes that you are after I would get from GM Bolt in West Ipswich.
Contact Garth on 3281 9781.
His prices are half what Nutz & Bolts are, let alone those from Small Parts/Hobby & Engineering Supplies
It may or may not be of help to mention my name.

Regards,
Garry

Thanks Garry - long time no speak - hope you are well.
I managed to place an order last night through microfasteners - what awesome service and price, WOW got a bucket load of nuts and bolts for a crazily cheap price. Not flying related this time...nuts and bolts for the new camper trailer

G'day Bones,

The hardware was for attaching the Flying Wires Mounting Brackets, Interplane Struts & dare I mention it in an IMAC forum, for scale detailing purposes on the Moth.

Garry

Yes Haggy I'm well and am looking forward to flying with you sometime soon.

At this rate you will soon have more trailers than Linfox.

Garry

Hi everyone
Just wanted to say Hi
I have been primarily a lecky guy and have flown basic since Oct '11 and Sportsman since Dec '11 with a EF 70" extra 300

I have flown my first Giant today, a 102" QQ Yak with a DA100 spinning a 26x12 Mejzlik 2 blade and dual 5200 mAh li-ions powering a AR9210(DMSX) Rx @ 7.4 Volts running BLS157's ( 1 per surface).
I'm sure some of you know "personally" the airframe I speak of, and I would be honoured to hear any tips and opinions.

I'll also take this opportunity to say that the NT IMAC scene is fast growing and being a member of KMAC I'd like to encourage people to come to the Kracker IMAC comp in late June. There are great people to be involved with and excellent facilities plus we get to blow ***** up.

Cheers
Dan
