We had another HStore indoor evening last week. Flew the nearly 20 YO Bleriot which now has a brushless motor complete with spinning Gnome radial dummy engine. At 1200mm its a big model for indoor but its a big Gym and it still flies slowly. Same weight as always but now with heaps of duration from Lipos.
Some photos of my models on HStore site: http://www.hstore.com.au/hstore.asp
Have also been flying with some retired locals in a nearby park early on Sundays, lots of fun with small models in the calm air.

300mm span with converted Bit Car RC but now flying with Plantraco
I built models as a kid and then in 1980 I started RC flying with electric power. I have also been facinated with miniature models. Now most of my planes are under 200g and many are under 20g. From about 1982 to 1994 I wrote the Electric Flight column in Australian Airborne Magazine. What we used to have to make ourselves is now readilly available and very economical. Electric flying has come of age.
