Keith Appleton's 1/6th scale Spitfire, Slightly tail heavy
on the first flight, it made my fingers shake a bit! Thanks
to John Evans for flying it while I calmed my nerves. It
was extremely sensitive on the elevator when I landed it,
so I needed a steady elevator thumb! A bit more nose ballast
is needed - now fitted ready for the next flight.
Keith Appleton's Clipped wing Piper Super Cub - built by
Phil Kent - very scale, fitted with Laser 180 V Twin engine
Keith Whitham's fine "Druine Turbulent", flies
well & looks the part with its dummy second "Saito"
cylinder, accurately modelled on the real one.
A collection of photographs sent in by Keith Whitham, these
photographs are in large full size format, suitable for
downloading to your PC and/or printing out - (very slow
to download without Broadband).
John Thompson's 'Diablotin' 14 x Panasonic 2,000 NiMh cells.
Fitted with a 14x7 prop driven by a direct drive Torcman
outrunner brushless motor. Model weighs only 41/2 pounds.
Motor fell off once, but it's now secure!
A very Pensive Bob Brown, wondering if his modified "Home
Run" will survive the next flight without dis-assembly!
Almost looks real doesn't it?

electric flight in its most basic form.
