PRF, at the south end of the vlei near the sewarge works, in a nature reserve, used to be a wilderbeest running round there, the occasional escaped hippo from Rondevlei, and now Ostriches.

The Voltij may be ugly, but have never flown ANYTHING that compares to it.

The 260 is loads of fun, got a Moki 180 in it.
How does yours go with the CRRC?
