27/02/08 Mike launching his Alula backwards
....or being a smart a*s and catching it?
p.s. it only took 17 attempts to get the landing approach right for the photo :-)
New
27/02/08 Mike launching another park flier.
No wind nowadays = electric flying on Minch, rather than towing up gliders...
New
27/02/08 Pete on a flyby with a small electric park flier.
New
27/02/08 Of course there's always someone who insists flying
a glider when there's no wind

Electric glider flying at sunset. Note the Nympsfield
wind turbine in the background.
(the turbine is actually on a hill a couple of miles away)
P.S: Those guys in the background are practising golf, the guy on the left hasn't just crashed his model into the ground behind him :-)

Andy side arm launching his HLG
Chris Boosey's Fun-Jet, EPP and very fast
Pete Godsell with a bi-plane
No
wind for gliding? No problem, just get your electric Yak out instead.
Pete practicing his slow flying
Brian with his homebrew Shockie. Take one sheet of 6mm Depron, a knife,
some carbon strip etc.... flies really well.
Ade
with his Highlight SAL
See the movie (2.2megs .wmv)
Pete
practising his side arm launch technique in the HLG comp.
Kyosho
T33 flying after it's second(!) rebuild. It seems to prefer 8 cells and
a good head wind to help with the handlaunch, once flying it goes very
well.
What
a difference a few months make. It's winter thermal time...so it's raining
(horizontally), it's blowing a gale and nobody is brave (stupid) enough
to get their models out of their cars
Pete
concentrating on the summer thermal comp 2001 with Dave doing the timing.
Andy
overshooting the landing box in the summer thermal comp. Because of this
Andy didn't win the comp...
- Richard with his "Sunrise" ...at sunset!
Brian
attempting to fly his "cheap" F16 he bought at Sandown.
Pity he had to spend another couple of hundred pounds on charger, batteries,
servos etc.....We won't mention how well it flew either :-)
A rare Bee Orchid as seen on Minchinhampton. Due to the lack of livestock
because of the Foot & Mouth crisis, the flowers had a chance to flourish.
p.s. Don't pick them.....they are really rare.
A
Pyramidal Orchid. Phil's been busy with his camera...
