I saw that it wasn't listed on their web site. Is it discontinued by the manufacturer? or just that they have stopped selling it.

The 38 has to be the most versatile and reliable motor ever used in modelling.

Some photos from Ray Rodgers of his latest build of a Sedburge glider

Built from a kit supplied by Laser Cut Sailplanes, it is 1/3 scale, 6m span

Its a bit quiet on here so I thought that I would post these two pics of John Braithwaite's building activities of recent months. rsz_img_0154.jpg Not just one 100" Gee Bee racer but three identical airframes. I believe that these are a scale up of the ARTF models that were widely flown by the ...

It seems to display a willingness to rise up onto the ski. This is an amazing project, fair play to all involved

I have had a reply from him via e-mail recently. I requested further info which he sent but declined to proceed due to him being on the south coast and I am in N Lincs. He did say that he had received several enquiries

Yay! God bless all who sail in her.

Congratulations to the new owner. I hope that I get to see it fly

Just to add a little more to this which may be of use to someone else, I have made a 6ft bow but I then hit a wall in finding something with enough volts/ amps to bring the wire to a suitable temperature. On the smaller bows I have an old MFA power unit, 20 volts ac current, No detectable gain in th...

Excellent build! Please keep adding to this thread.
Thanks for the photos so far

Nice to see you back here. I've been wondering how you were getting on. I look forward to the next update.

By coincidence, a nice model in progress on the Aerobertics facebook page

Hi Dave, That's encouraging to know. I sort of thought it should be OK if I'm careful but didn't want to waste a load of foam without checking. 8 1/2 foot!! what am I worried about! Thanks for the advice, it very helpful. I'll try cutting the blanks with my gear and see how it goes. I may be startin...

Hi to All, This years building season has arrived by Government imposition so perhaps best to make a start. I want to build a three piece wing where the plug in outer wings have a span of 60 inches. I have cut cores in the past with a span of 40 inch each core. As I recall, they were cut very slowly...

Wow! it sounds like you have really been through the mill. Congratulations on the attitude, it will do a lot to see you through.
I hope that you get back to building and flying very soon
All the best

Very sad to hear this news today. Nice guy and a fixture at most of the shows. My condolences to his family and friends

I have come across a copy of the assembly sheet for the Flair TM u/c. The file is too big to post here and by the time it has been resized it will loose clarity. I will e-mail a copy to anyone who wants one.

The Flair u/c set for the Tiger Moth has become something of a Holy Grail to find. I have seen and assembled kit on a model and it was a first class set up using simple parts and some electrical fittings as I recall. It worked really well. I was hoping someone would come up with something that would...

Thanks Wayne. I was after a sheet of Chipmunk nomenclature labels but never got a reply to my e-mail. Might try him again.
Great flying model. You are nearly there!

Have you made contact with Flightline?? I thought that they were shut down for the duration?

Steve, Chris, Thank you both for the helpful suggestions. I have put in a call to Sarik this afternoon. They are going to look on Monday and get back to me. I had no idea that Glens Models were still on the go so thanks for the tip.

Hi All, I have been shown a canopy for a Glens Models Cap 232 of around 90 inch span. The canopy for that is about the right size but it's still attached to a functional model so not available. Anyone have a similar canopy of a lead as to where I might get one. I take it the Glens Models is now defu...
