Tony Nijhuis Design Vampire test flight success

Postby Vince Raia » April 24th, 2011, 7:48 pm

Just had a phone call from Hastings MFC, Colin Hammond test flew the new Tony Nijhuis designed Vampire, using a P80 for power.

Colin reported that the model flew superb, on the proverbial "Rails" and was extremely impressed with model and it's flying characteristics :)

The Model is of traditional construction using Balsa & ply, and will be the subject of a kit from the Nijhuis stable.

I am awaiting photos of the flight to be emailed to me, and I will then upload them to this thread. The model was test flown in grey primer and nose cone removed but will now be completed. Tony will advise price and future availability, and will probably feature in a future RCM&E review.
