With the control line madness event coming soon I need to get her built.After having soooooo much fun at the Slim event I am going back 45 years and building a 53" stunt model ,so I don't get so dizzy it will have a R/c input so I can land and have a rest B)

If you are going to fit R/C anyway, you could include elevator control and run it as a tethered model. You would only need one line and maybe fit a turbine to really get it going. :woohoo:

:woohoo: Now that is serious! Notice that the Aussies have gone the extra mile and made a proper facility. They must have a big CL following in Oz. You will notice that the pilot holds on to the centre pole for guidance.
