Most people have had a few problems with the 110/120 mah batteries they all claim performance is much better with the 150mah batteries

Talbs I flew my 4 site in the back yard the other day....not bad.. a little tail heavy but it is designed to be indoors.

Also I had a bit of wind which did not make it too easy..its a zero wind plane as you know.

nice little plane..

What type of photos do you want?

I think I have a few from the last IMAC event held there. Not much in the way of feild shots just some happy snaps of planes and people I think.

I was kind looking for the field - facilities that may be in background aircraft shots... Just had a quick look at the narracan site and it looks like a nice & scenic setup!

cheers!

Looks good Timbo, but the front cylinder would effectivly end up being a much long header!

Fantastic, have got it all sorted!! They are a awsome bit of kit.

The surround sound and wide screen tv take a bit of getting used to but I guess it somthing I will have to learn to live with.

Just need for it to stop raining so I can use it
