Airworld FW190

Captured here at WMAC Cashmoor on the 4th of May 2024, this 1/4 scale replica had it's maiden flight successfully. Great looking weathered model, amazing sound of the Moki 250.  A relatively quiet plane for it's size and only using the ring exhaust.  Yet another prop powered warbird to be found at our club field along with numerous P47s (SNAFU's), Mustangs, Spitfires and the occasional Hurricane. Flown scale -like by Luke Metcalf.

RC Sound -Turbo Prop Part 2

This is the follow on story of the sound module project for the Hangar 9 Twin Otter and later on the slightly smaller Nexa Canadian Rescue Twin Otter although it would be quite usable for any twin turbo propped aircraft. To enhance the sound I am using cardboard tubing. The tube is 50mm in diameter and has a wall thickness of 2mm This will not only enhance the lower frequencies but amplify the sound a little bit more.

RC Sound -Turbo Prop Part 1

With the weather being rather unsettled for RC flying I decided on an indoor job to keep me occupied. A little test project using a "Mr RC world" module to simulate the start up sound of the Twin Otter's, twin turbo prop engines. The two Twin Otter models I have are electric powered and are the Hangar 9 and the Nexa, the latter slightly smaller. Electric reliable power but virtually silent and I miss the sound of engines.

EDF Battles

Snapped on the fly with a smart phone at our field on the 7th October 2023. Only 6 pilots for this session. It was just a well because since that day flying has been greatly reduced to continuous high winds, rain and combinations of both. We accept this is England but this year Autumn has been less favourable than previous years.

Oddly there were no collisions and all jets returned safely to the airstrip!

Wimborne MAC Member Memories

This year, 2023 is the 50th Anniversary of the Club.  With this in mind and with help from some members with photo archives a video photo album has been created to look back at past and present members.  Some images are from scans of old photos and later much better quality from digital images.  Images captured from poses, presentations and those instant shots with  click of a shutter.

Contributors are listed at the end of the video and were gratefully accepted.
