Its time to move on my old models and prototypes... so in the offering is; 1. My beautiful Boeing B50.....19' span electric power (still the largest span electric scale model around) with on board sound system...around the £4k mark..ready to go with Lipo flight batteries 2. My 78" DH Vampire wi...

Looks great Keith....soooo close to lift off too.....It been quite a journey for you and peter since collecting the airframe from me all those years ago!...something to really look forward too at next years shows I hope...

looking great Keith......Did you mod the retracts at all. i seem to remember i made them using some old Len Gardner wheels. Dubro now do a giant size selection of their lightweight range which I think are a better wheel. Might be resurrecting the Conni plan and down-size to produce a 72" versio...

Keith....Great to see her finally taking shape. Peter has done a fine job getting it from that ram-shacked state I sold it to you in.....I only wish I had a 'Peter' down this neck of the woods to finishes this New Bronco of mine......keep up the good work.....i'll guarantee she'll fly a treat. Will ...

A bit more testing.... vul-1.jpg vul-2.jpg vul-3.jpg vul-4.jpg Safely down Now building MK2 with only a wren 80 for power.....just so I know it works with an entry level Turbine!!! All the test flights were done with the Wren 100 dearated (in RPM to 145,000)to match the power of an Wren 80 Happy days

Some more testing to but now finished in full war paint

Dave,

Misplaced your phone number and contact details......can you give a call on 07720 185373. In need to pass on your details to customers needing to buy the 103" Hurricane retracts.....cheers

I don't think a Bif pipe would work Mke.....the wing is too thin to hide a pipe breaking out of the fus into the engine nacelles....better off trying a couple of small wrens. Currently making the VAC forms for the canopy and engine nacelles

A 707 would make a great project though!!!!

There is a radius shroud that will sit round the pipe outlet so side on the tail will appear to have the normal Vulcan 'dome' tail. Just worked out the wing loading and its about 18oz/sq foot......no wound she flew scale at 1/3 throttle!!

May be not as impessive as DJ's but today was the first flight of the 95" single turbine powered Vulcan and what a cracker.... AUW is 26lbs with fuel and Wren 100 for power but a cheaper Wren 80 would be more than adequate. Before you ask,this will be a plan pack :D :D :D happy Days IMG_1960-1....

Hi Dave and all, Good to know the models are nearing completion and great to see your getting under the target weight too. Just a reminder that the C of G is critical on this type of model as the booms provide very little in the form pitch stability, so please make sure you are on it or better still...

Finally got the flying shots for RCM&E last week

has Peter made a plug and is this the first mould off it Keith?

Great news to know its progressing

Now finally availiable to buy through the TND web site http://www.tonynijhuisdesigns.co.uk before the offical launch via the RCM&E in a couple of months time........the turbine version that is Mike.....mind you I'd love to see you put OS 25 in her and see if she lifts....now there's a challange ...

Now (finally) availiable to purchase......well it had to right!
For more details go on to http://www.tonynijhuisdesigns.co.uk

Do you know what Ian, when i did the talk circuit last year, the amount of modellers who came up after the talk and said "what engine goes in the nose then?" I was tempted to say it was a prototype push-pull Vampire which had a turbine in the back and engine up front!!!...but i couldn't be...

I think this model has taken long to design and build than a certain Vulcan!! Finally got round to finishing the model and finallising the plans, cnc pack and all the other bits. Package should be available in the next couple of weeks through my web site..... price around the £280 mark Spec- 78"...

Hi Dave, Glad to see you're cracking on with it and building the Mark II version with the 2-piece wing......Even though I have a stack of models to fly its become my weekend hack.... The prototype was covered in Profilm by the way...the finish still looks great. Must get on designing the low wing ve...

B-50 now signed off, painted and ready for next season....
