Thanks for sharing.

Hi,

I flew an Airworld Ask21 for a couple of seasons. With 24 kg auw it was definetely not to heavy.

Thanks Len.

I see that my question was a bit unclear :)
What I relly wanted to learn was how you solved the horns on the wing. As the linkage is hidden, I assume you have replicated the full size...

Thanks for this great article.
Very inspiring to read about your experience in Spain.

Does anyone know if a BT equipped Mc32 can provide gps-data over the SkyNavigator protocol?

HK also has very high quality...

Not at all :) But some times the tugs available won't be capable of towing at max weight. Better flying light than resting heavy on the ground.

I certainly prefer batteries before ballast :)

That's why my DG carries 20000mah RX-batteries :)

Sometimes other factors get into the mix, I have placed the drive batteries for the Aft at the...

Lookin' good Ross..

I've started to use nylon mesh wire protection for grouping cables. This is a nice and easy way to tidy up the install.

As for the SPS-unit. Does it have other functions...

Hi,

Finally the model has been in the air.
