Hi
friends,
Take a
look at site seeing for some very good news for
electric fliers, especially those just starting out or contemplating doing so -
it's the nearest thing to a free gift you are likely to get through ModelFlight
and it comes
courtesy of Graham of Graham McAllister Designs, who is a reader of this
site. There's also another fascinating site to take a look at - just go and see!
My thanks
to Ian Slaughter for a nice article on model painting - Ian made a brilliant job
of hand-painting his scale Focke Wulf using Nelson Specialties System Three
paints and talks us through it on air space - runs
and all!
Within
hours of getting home from a good day out last Sunday, October 14th, Tom Watson sent me a report of an
enjoyable scale rally he attended at the Sydney Radio Control Society, Australia,
and just five days later, it's here for you to read about. I've popped it on photo
gallery because it's got some good pictures, and club scene is a bit crowded this
issue. There were some brilliant models being flown, and I'm hoping some of the
other competitors might send us a picture or two of their masterpieces.
To add to
the Australian flavour, although purely coincidental as ever, there's news of
activity on the opposite side of Oz with a profile of
Ian Greenacre, editor of a splendid
magazine produced for the AWA (Aeromodellers of Western Australia) and a review
of the magazine itself on club scene. I was
privileged to be added to the circulation list of the September issue - thanks,
Ian!
Regards to all,
