Be afraid be VERY afraid
"It's Ok John over there knows all about those things, he'll fly it for you"......
I must learn to say no, I'm scared
I must learn to say no. I'm scared
I must learn etc etc................................
This thing looks like a plastic Swift with a pressurised 09 up front I'm sure it'll do warp factor 9 on tick over
how'm I gonna get out of this one?

Re: Be afraid be VERY afraid
I doubt I could handle it lol.
Howamy channels and whats the wing area and loading if you know?
If its low you may be able to put a medallion .09 in it for the first flights just so you get used to it.

I dunno all the details other than it's very slippery.
It's not mine it was just thrust my way cos I must have a COX NUT look about me.
I think it's 2 (bank and yank) channel I doubt that there's much difference between
rediculously fast and time machine so if we can get the mota running, TD it is.
Luckily the previous owner neglected to put a head gasket in it so I live for another week.
Weather looks pants this weekend so I may have a proper 'Stay'.
I may petition the Governor........
Bugger we don't have one......!

You might want to try an .049 first. I'm thinking it will drop like a rock when it runs out of fuel.
Re: Be afraid be VERY afraid
VIDEO REQUIRED!!!!!!!
Nothing like putting a Big Block Chevrolet in a Yugo,,
It should have a power to weight like a full size Gee Bee Racer,,

Perhaps, if Ye Olde Hay Wagons still exist in your countryside there, you might bequest the momentary use of one for a landing target !!!!!!

Re: Be afraid be VERY afraid
so, it really doesnt have wings, huh?
i think it'll get spinning pretty quic, if the engine somehow manages to get it airborne, cause there's nothin
to counteract the turn of the prop ^^
and hey, might even get you some gyroscopic stability, you never know!

Re: Be afraid be VERY afraid
Cor it's great how these story's take on a life
Of their own, one might say take wing...
It does have wings, Cos it didn't stand a
Snowballs of starting we didn't strap them on.
Once we get it running I'll sack Glen the worlds
Worst camera man, get a pukka camera as
Well and Robert'll be your muvvas bruvva.
