SWAMPS Sunday 28.2.16


    SWAMPS Sunday 28.2.16

 Hi all, another great day for flying, light winds early increasing a little after lunch. Bob H always first on the scene with his collection of Little Sticks, Heli's and even a Bixler glider. Neil Busby after a long holiday turned up early too, must of been in two minds as what to bring so why not bring them all, petrol powered Baja included. Below is a Big Stick that Neil recently purchased and wanted to test, OS GT 33 up front, run and flew well, as sticks do......

 Mike turned up later morning and put the Quad through its paces........
 After changing the carby on the Saito 65 which caused a no idle problem last week, a run through the drain caused the under cart to depart from the Dragon Lady. Typical ARF as far as that goes. Engine run good though........
Myself and Alex with our trusty fleet, blew the dust of the Fokker DR1 for the Foster show so thought we would give it a go, hadn't started in 12 months and fired up first spin, flew just as well as it always did. A patched up wheel the only problem when I tried to turn on the field, $50 dollars for a new set?????
