Though I'd help you along there...I guess you could race with it - it would just take a long time to complete the course.

Bored everybody?

OK, guilty on two counts out of three:

1. Unmanned
2. Repeat (but different angle/view)


But 3: It flew.

Not bored Reg, just busy.

Finished walking doggie and having a bite to eat before back to work!

I think that's the latest Fanwing incarnation, the FanWing OHS Twin-Tail from Japan (I think)??

Sorry, but it's got to be an OH again if correct, gotta go now

Good to see HP back again too and Ken and Martin's lights are still on
