Best of luck for the flight today (if it happens). Bootlace was the first actual r/c model I built, also from the Peter Miller plan and am flying one of his similar, smaller, designs at the moment.

Regards

Gary

Andy,

I am in the throes of building his Werewolf design (another free plan). The beauty of his designs is that the construction remains very silmilar so you always know what he is on about.

Again good luck

 

Gary

Andy,

She looks very purposeful sitting there. I will post pictures of the Werewolf, once I have bought myself a digital camera (which apparently have been invented), after the process of deciding what represents good value, then affording it and then, finding out how the hell do you make it work. please don't wait up. This process may be as long as the build!

Regards

Gary
