How to?

Below is before. Above is after!

How do you go from hero to DORK in 2 seconds? Lesson number one: Do not switch off the TX when you are placing the clip fom your neck strap, on the transmitter. This may damage your plane, especially if it is 800 feet high!! :-) OH well, I shall just have to build another!! Watch this space.

No wind to fly slope.

We went to the slope to fly with a hooking wind in town, 45km SW, only to find nothing at Maitlands. There was so much NOTHING, that we could not even fly Alulas. So Bakkie and I ducted a servo to the side of his Radian, pulled an elastic over the nose to hold a foamie, and gave gas!! It worked so well that we could piggy-back two planes at once! Well done Bakkie, your Radian is THE COOL!!

Jart with SMOKE!!

OK!, so we will go off the Migs just for a short post about smoke. We have been trying some methods of making our own, but have not got the formulae right yet. Bakkie imported some and we fixed it to a Jart. It looked AWESOME!!

Welcome Bretton.

We have another member, Bretton! Welcome, hope you have many hours flying with us! Bretton built his Mig to the original size Dave West designed for a 25 size glo engine. Looks great Bretton, well done!!

OoooPs Barry!

Barry had a great fly on the slope with his electric Mig untill he lost orientation for a second. He went down and hit the only guy in the bush, who was busy recovering his own plane, Shaun. Well Shaun did'nt seem to have taken the hit to bad. However Barry's Mig snapped in half!

Road trip.

Above, Gamtoos.

The wind was SCREAMING on top of the hill.

The Jart would have loved it!!

Mist moving in quickly

Patensie.

We flew the right V.

Some scenic shots.

Bakkie giving a good launch!

First stop at a cellphone tower above Patensie.

Bakkie and I went on a road trip to Patensie to look for inland slopes. We did plenty kilo's and flew less. In the end we landed up at Maitlands.
