I scratch build and fly model aircraft both glow and electric. I fly
at a local club, T.A.R.M.A.C in Toowoomba, Queensland Australia, it's about 12km from
home. We have about 40 members and 20 active fliers across all disciplines of RC. I fly
pylon, fun fly and sport with electric and glow aircraft. Their are a few electric fliers
in our club and they mainly fly electric glider. I have sport and competition gliders,
sport planes, speed 400 pylon and a TaylorCraft (sort of scale) large electric.
I design and build to a budget. Every plane is designed to make the most of the balsa with
the minimum amount of waste. Wings are built to the standard lengths of material
available, 900mm 1200mm etc. or combinations of both. I use super glue and BondCrete, a
waterproof PVA type of glue, and sometimes 5min epoxy.
I made these pages to show the types things I like to see on other Web sights. I have lots
of pics and some movies. I have a few details about each aircraft, and some thoughts about
their design and building.
This is a weekend flier and scratch builders site, no scale models here. I'm not
expounding any great building techniques, it's for those who enjoy RC modelling, in all
it's forms.
I keep updating these pages regularly.
Have a look at the 52nd Australian RC Nationals.
