| THIS is the page for
aero-model pictures - your own, or others you've seen at the club or at
a show; they are all welcome if they're nice to look at!
If you're not into digital photography or
scanning pictures, why not send me some photos by regular mail? It's not too
pricey; a batch of five or
six photos costs $1.00 airmail postage from the USA, for example. My home address is on the home
page. |

These are GEOFF
GRAHAM'S very attractive models - his Junior 60 above, and
his full squadron below - the T180, J3 Cub and the Junior 60
again. You can meet Geoff on the personal
profiles page.
Geoff says, "I must tell you that I have
had to make myself send this stuff to you as my age and 'old
fashioned' constraint tell me that it is a bit immodest to show off
one's own creations. I have, however, learned to make the decals using
my PC and Corel Draw and could maybe help folk who want to do that, but
haven't tried it. I could perhaps also furnish the dimensions for the
CoG rig (see the post box page) if anyone
thinks it is even remotely useful to them. Currently I am working on
trying to use slide-off transfers made up on my PC and inkjet
printer". [I now have details of Geoff's CoG
rig and it will be featured on ModelFlight #27.]
Decal-making always seems to prove interesting,
so, Geoff, I would love to have details of your system.. |

Here are three of JOE HOWARD'S
magnificent model helicopters. Joe is one half of Cyberheli, which you
can read about on the site-seeing page.
It's well worth a look and could save you lotsa money!

 This
is the winning photograph in the RCezine competition I told you
about on #25. It appears on their January 2001 'cover' page and it comes from
a nice chap who calls himself 'Sabre' on the net, from Malta; the model is a Phantom A4.
Sabre's prize was to have his
picture on the cover of the January 2001 issue, plus vouchers worth
US$25 to spend with one of their sponsors. See more pictures and details of this
superb model on the special 'models in the
making' page on this issue.
There's a permanent link to RCezine on the Magazines &
Publications links page, and they have kindly offered to put a link to
ModelFlight
on their site. |
| We had a lovely afternoon's
flying at the Club on January 6th - here's a few of the models on the
field. |
 |
PETE WELLS' delightful Graupner Cub - originally
electric, but Pete has fitted a ·25 2-stroke although he thinks it
might be a bit over-powered now. |
| PAUL COOK with his own-design electric plane - he
flies it beautifully and it packs away into a neat little box he's made
for it to take with him whilst he's at University. Wingspan around 31",
weight 15 oz, Speed 400 6V motor, 6 x 950 mAh cells. |

This is PAUL COOK'S Mini-Jazz built from an RCM&E
plan. 33" wingspan, OS35 FP 2-stroke engine. Paul can fly this v-e-r-y slow and just inches off the ground -
inverted if you like! |

PETE BANNON from California, USA,
sent me these
pictures of his latest creation - a 60-size Sukhoi SU-29 by Modeltech. It is powered by a pumped K&B
1.00 cu 2-stroke engine and looks very nicely finished. Welcome,
Pete, great to hear from you. Pete will be 'profiled' on the next ModelFlight. |
