Originally posted by DazDaMan Kind of – plans-built, but with an all-balsa fuselage. They are a Mk1 and Mk9 – the 9 has clipped wings, ML417 paint scheme and an OS20 fitted inverted.
The Mk1 has an upright mount.
£30 the pair? (plus the OS)
Hey Daz
I’m interested. Can you e mail me off board?
Cheers

Nah-all you do is take the battery out, put it back in the wrong place, muck up the centre of gravity, and there you have it. a homesick mole with invasion stripes!
Daz-thanks for the offer. Better not take it up right now as Ive got 4 biplanes needing completed first. Are these the Cambrian Funfighters for 25 engine? What are you looking for them?
On the subject of Spits, I piled my r/c one in last week, and am looking for some in cockpit shots so I can make the detail as good as I can while I’m repairing it. Can anyone give me details of any good internet links with photos?
Nice shots. One thing I’ve always wondered…..
Does the corrugated construction give any aerodynamic benefit, or disadvantage?
Why did they build it like that?
I agree. These pilots had a very difficult and dangerous role to play, and without the kudos of the fighter jocks.
Bat 21 had the Hollywood treatment allright, but it got the point across.
Well, its only a small ambition, but I’d love to get my duster out on a Spitfire-or one of those highly polished aluminium finished beasties. Sadly I have to content myself with my old Rover 218.
Not going to Leuchars this year. In the huff. Fed up with seeing all the usual suspects, and as the Eurofighter isnt on the line up, there’s nothing to attract. Am I alone in my bored apathy here?
If only we had a decent warbird contingent, like down south. Since the retirement of Phantoms, Lightnings, Buccs. Vulcan, Shack, there isnt much left to excite. You can only do so much with a pointy paper dart.
