  1. If the weathers good theres a bunch of us that will make it up, whats the forecast looking like??
  2. After checking bolts on your machine get some bright nail varnish and put a dab on the bolt and a dab on a fixed point next to the bolt you will always see if bolts are working loose.My favourite colour is cerise pink. My most valuable to date is put the small stuff bag that comes with most wings and put it in a pocket on your machine so if you land out you can safely pack your wing away.
  3. Whats the best method for attaching go pro to either foot or leg for the pilot and wing shot in a turn?
  4. Take every oppertunity possible to build up credits with the wife.
  5. A few of us flew early this morning and it was fine! Odd thermic bump but nothing else
  6. Does anyone have any more info on these reserves, price etc I just seen a video of it on another forum but cant upload if someone can. Opens bloody quick!
  7. Just got back from a xc with pals and was getting 3ltrs an hour
  8. Dont know what all the fuss is about, i stole a little boys 99 while flying low along the seafront the other day
  9. Anyone fly in the hunstanton area? Heading up for a long weekend and hoping to get a fly in?
  10. Yes miniplane abm, im no expert pilot by the way and not planning going into comps but just enjoy a looser type of flying
  11. Im only 65kgs so its small but not as weighted as most are flying Very responsive in turns you need more outside break than i am used to but not as thirsty as i thought it was gonna be i had plenty of power left on full reflex aswell and flying top80 130 prop.
  12. It was the same but different
  13. I have been flying a revo 1 24m for the past 2 years, I wanted to move onto something more lively and looked at all the options and had a few demos. I flew the gtr 20 tonight definetly made the right choice for me, i ground handled for about half hour then decided to clip in. it was the easiest wing i have ever launched popped up like a slice of toast in light winds although once in the air alot more input was needed than im used to. landing was not as fast as i thought it was gonna be although still fast enough but bled out nice. Defintly not a wing for a beginner as theres no room for error but an intermediate pilot whos got his head on its a blast!! You can tell it will do whatever you want it to do if you have the balls i just need to grow mine a little more as time goes by.
  14. Coming from a revo 1 24 i demo the 26 with morgy great wing but maybe on the big side for me but i will say tip steering was fantastic! Bloody great place to test it aswell.
  15. Ive had couple of top 80 engines all leak little where exhaust meets as mentioned the cooper flange makes a big difference but i was advised to change to copper flange after around 20hours not when new Such a fantastic engine for a lighter pilot, i get around 2.5ltrs an hour in full reflex.
  16. Thats not high i can see the grass
