    yes been into model planes since about 16 when I flew control line. These days I'm into large scale R/C models, mainly WWII fighters.

    A pic of my P51D Mustang to illustrate. 82" wingspan and 22lbs in weight.

    I used to love watching those things go at the nats each year. It was right up with night scramble as a highlight

    thanks for that, I have several WWII fighters. 3 Spitfires of various marks and sizes, 65" span Mk IX, 90" span Mk XII, 96" Span MK VIII (to be built)

    Finishing off a 86" span P47 ajnd have a 86" span F4U-1D Corsair to build.

    I am just about to purchase a Disco 3 SE with TDV6. Completing negotiations at the moment and hope to place the actual order in the next week or 2. We are in Brisbane Northside area.

    cheers
    Peter
