    48" Pantera EXP

    Chris Hinson said its been put on hold - been a challenge getting it to where he is happy for it to be released...seems a real shame...not sure whether its been totally scrapped or whether it will be resurrected as guess there is lots of projects on the go...and if you have one that isn't coming...

    If I can add - Soldering can be made easier or harder by the quality of solder you also use... Most hobby store type irons are fixed heat pencils and unlike quality irons where you can use interchangeable different temp bits...so a good fluxed solder is vital and some LHS solders are just not...

    Spotters not so much a requirement in the UK as we can pretty much fly wherever within reason...large gassers at a club or in the middle of nowhere...so spotting is normally a flying buddy thing where yeah watch if there are a couple of planes in the air...if a group of you flying...but mostly...

    My TEAM....(For us sports nuts)

    LOL - the point young gun is simple they mean to smash you and hurt you and run over you.....and if you watch New Zealand play...and watch carefully some of the off the ball tackles they do on people are just sick...but the Haka is a signal of intent...and because the opposition knowns what they...

    Yeah the Haka is something to behold - whats with the tongues?? but yeah when you got 6ft 6" 20 stone guys that can bench press a car screaming at you a few meters away in a war dance and the fact they know they can smash every bone in your body in a tackle is something to be feared for...

    Have to admit baseball the rules the whys the hows...etc and all those numbers quoted goes right over my head :o But guess it's the same for you guys and cricket....I remember when we had some northrup grumman guys over and we used to go to lunch at the university campus bar and the cricket...

    That looks like bad news on the foam front...is that near nig bay??/ looks like it's breached and dumping raw effluent into the sea :( On the fishing front - caught a 6ib carp - nice specimen but hardly worth writing about

    FAQ I'm new to 3D... where do I start?

    I ventured into 3d when buying a Precision Aerobatics Katana Mini....I loved this plane and it was a great groundbreaker for me as I mostly flew Warbirds and the odd Jet....OK the plane is nothing like the available 3d offerings of today's standard...but they are dirt cheap now and the parts are...

    Inverted harrier, how do you conquer it?

    To be totally honest I tend to enter inverted harrier - by accident...normally coming out of a manoevere the wrong way :o it is the most uncomfortable flying for me....I can do it - but tend not to as I always fear the worst....

    That sucks Hone1er...... I prefer to fly with Xoar's and though more expensive - I do have spares...but need to stock up...I simply only have a few spares as you due to cost....but what I do is get APC's which are cheaper - as a fall back so if I do lose a couple Xoar's I can keep flying on the...

    To Vortex Generate, or Not?

    I think we are agreeing the same thing Steve..but our method and interpretation a little different...you can't compare a wind turbine to the reality of how a wing will respond on an aeroplane with significant mass wanting it to descend...and a wing on its own can behave differently due to kite...
