You could also try putting the prop on back to front, that would slow you down a bit.

Based on my finished model gross weight coming out at about 826gm (226 above the kit design) and from what i've seen on various Youtube videos, this is designed for speed and appears a bit of a hand-full post launch until some flying speed has built up so i will be doing initial flights with larger diam fine pitch props to give better acceleration and limiting top speed. (but i'm told most R/C equipment has a special channel called Throttle or something which has a similar effect)

I am planning on having some peel off type decals made up for our group build. They will cost about £2-00 for the pair if we select the larger sizes. I would plan to order 6 off in black & 6 off in white to enable some contrast against various colour schemes. If you are interested, please advise which font you prefer for the left decal and the right decal and if you would like dark or light colour. I will go with the majority input.

Nice idea, thanks Kevin.
My choice would be middle picture starboard wing size in black.

Regards, David

I'll go with the majority but must admit that I preferred the one you showed on Friday, which had lower case lettering.

We all need to go with the same don't we? Why don't we all vote and go with the majority?

About voting, Jon said

i like the top one


Well, I don't because it's too big, so I vote that when families are voting the older person should get two votes to the younger person's one.

thanks for the responses so far but there was another Q. - Although i said i could split the order between Black or White , if you advise your preference to contrast with your wing colour i can order to suit. Tappin senior has gone for black - as i shall

For me, the bottom one, but like Mike, I prefer small case. Caps is shouting!

Whatever, I'll have a couple, please. White would suit me, as the top is metallic dark blue, the underside dayglo orange/pink ish.

If the majority want black, I'll still have a couple.

Just found an old magazine plan for a 36" DH6 biplane. Another group build, anybody?

As launch date approaches, perhaps we should make our selves aware of the safety issues. see the attached link
