It's gone. I had a good flight this morning probably close to 20 seconds, with a constant turn, Later I went back out with the camera, but the wind had picked up just a little. It went up started to turn, but then flew straight off the cliff. I climbed around, where I could, trying to find it, but the black berries and bushes are so thick I think it's lost cause. I guess my little field is only good for trim flights now. Oh well, I'll just have to build another.

That's a real shame, the climb and initial turn was superb on the video.

I always feel a bit gutted if I loose a model, but the joy is that they are cheap and cheerful enough to build more if you loose one.

I highly recommend the 600 series Piper Super Cub 95 like the one I built. It's a really nice model for the price and they do seem to supply them with decent wood and a proper sized propellor.

No worries, my next build is a 500 series 109. I want to try doing graphics on my computer/printer again.
