just wanted to put some pics down of my recently built eurosport built by glyn dale who i owe a big thankyou. its running a booster 160+ turbine and apart from havin to wait for some electronics to turn up cant wait to see her maiden flight. well it
is about time i completed this post about a month ago me and my pilot sam walker went up to skegness ware glyn is based to do the test flight which i was very nervous about lol! when i got there and saw the model i couldnt belive my eyes what an exllent job glyn had done on the model theres not one bit wrong and i am very fussy especially after spending all my money on this model. well just the test flight to go 20 cigerets later and the wind finally droped on the strip and glyn took her up god it finally flys the first flight the model was extremly lively as glyn put it!! so a litle weight adjustment and up again this time alot better,so finally a little throw adjustment and its perfect.brillantly set up by glyn. so after a couple of weaks waiting for better weather me and sam took her to our local club cambridge cmac in waterbeach, me and sam very nervous of the first flight but nothing to worry about its flawless and flys so well but also has all the power u ever asked for and performs all the manovers asked of it a well recomed this model. well thanks alot to Glyn dale for all his time and exllent building skills highly recomend him thanks to allan cmac for pics and thanks to mark hinton for his help and thanks to dave motors and rotors for great info and suppling parts so quickley and last well thanks for reading! the model will be sean flying at the shows this year such as wings and wheels and many others look forward to many great days flying!!!!!!!

Hi Rob. A superb Eurosport. have just purchased a seconhand MK1. will paint it in your colours. what type of traling link are you using?. as you may know the MK1 as weak u/c plates and traling links are the way to go. will be using my MK2 Merlin for power. Rg Paul.

Thanks Dick, It's just nice to give others a leg up. Nobody knows it all and where would we be without a little help and the benefit of those more experienced. As someone once said,
"experience is that thing that comes along ten minutes after you need it!"
