Repair job
The usual process to follow here, strip it all back, cut out the broken bits and start putting new bits in.
Precision Aerobatics BBV2 Midair
My first midair and I must say, overall, the BadBoy V2 came out of it well. The other guy didn’t have a scratch on his plane so I’m guessing I came into contact with his prop. I was surprised how well the elevator control worked as I landed.
All in all, for a midair, I guess I’m pretty happy with the outcome.
To top it off, I flipped the Corsair on a touch and go. No damage, just a heap of dirt in the cowl.
LDMFA Meeting – 02-09-2009
Seen here are an electric ducted fan apparently very forgiving and ecellent to learn EDFs one.
A Decathalon that was converted from a 70FS glow to electric powered.
New Foamy
The latest addition to the stable, a little second hand foamy. Has a 25amp speedy, 3 micro servos, 1 5 channel mini receiver, a 1200mAH LiPO battery and an outrunner motor. All up weight about 475 grams.
Yet to fly. Need to program the radio, and wait for some calm weather.
Shepparton Scale Aerobatics Comp
One of my favourite pics taken the other day at Shepparton Scale Aerobatics comp. Other highlights included a massive Cessna and Vampire jet.
My visit was brief on Sunday morning for an hour or so before lunch. Then the rain rolled in and I headed off to Bendigo.
PDARCS Scale Aerobatics Comp
Matt and Pete Bailey both flew the Extra in two rounds at the Scale Aerobatics comp held at P&DARCS today.

Corsair – Latest Project
Finally the OS 70 Fourstroke I've had lying around since the demise of the Giles 202 has a new home!
An ebay pickup, I just need to put the engine and radio gear in and I'll be good to go.
The previous owner had an OS50 in it and had a whopping chunk of lead up front. The 70FS might help a little more with some nose weight but I think I'll still have some lead up front.
