    I know Lee. And I really wanna go too. He's been good to me since joining and I thought it might be a laugh to go up there and get a shot or two of him checking over my build and test hovering it for me.

    But the drive is a bit of a way for me. Still, be a blast tho.



    So, if you're reading any of this Tim, what do ya reckon? Still up for it?

      If you can get up to see Tim i would highly recommend it thats for sure... wont meet a nicer bloke and probably the best host ive met in the hobby yet. You'll get well looked after. Bet you'll learn a trick or 2 also

            You already know the answer to that Martin.

            Yes mate just say the word.

            Good photography along with half decent flying shoud make some good reading.


            Apologies for the late reply, Went flying again tonight and Paul (Dougie) had a little coming together with mother earth sadly.

            Got it all fixed now though.

            We don't mess about up here Martin, Crash em one minute, Fix em and back out the next night..

              I said I'd try to get up and see Tim for engine runs and test flight. Hope to do this before too much longer, if Tim's up for it and my wife lets me come!



              Failing this Russ has offered to help too, in case I can't justify the 4.5 hour drive north...Russ is only an hour south (or thereabouts)

              Mart,

              Trust me it will be worth the 4.5 hr drive if you get chance you won't regret it. There's something about Tim's field that gets the best out of everyone at some point in the day. If we could bottle and sell Tim's enthusiasm he'd be a millionaire

                Right - I'll get "agreement in principle" with her indoors and I'll make contact to arrange a suitable date

                So I hear!

                Sorry to hear about the "in". Still, all smiles when she got airborne tho eh?

                  Just got my copy of Rotor world. Excellent article, Martin, keep them coming.

                  I regard the trip to Tim's for set-up to be an essential part of the process. You couldn't find a more helpful bloke. Sadly, so far I only "know" him through here, but I intend to rectify that later this year.
