Can I have a name for "Loppy19" please

The pdf was created from a webpage so some of the formatting is a bit askew. To post here I've had to compress the file so not all the photos are as crisp as on the original. But hopefully clear enough. Hopefully, this helps Magic 2 build by Martin Oldershaw-compressed.pdf

Yes please Kev, will bring some buns too

It was moved to the Hyperfight website but I don't see it now. I think I still have a copy. I'll dig it out later and post. Edit: The build was for the medium weight and not the SL, but much of it will be the same.

Hi, does anyone have a copy/links to the Magic 2 SL RES build log, especially the build log by Martin Oldershaw? Also any advice/recommendations on push/pull or torsion bar setup for rudder and elevator appreciated. Many thanks.

Yes please do.

Should we add your name to the list? It’s probably one of the easier contest schedules, so a good one to start with. Also there will be plenty of help on hand.

Me too, please Terry open electric David Teal Ashford

Hi Kevin, Just in case you haven't noticed, Keith Fisher entry also asked for an entry for me. (Or did you not want me as I bent my plane and left a hole in your field last year?) Richard Harris

On further investigation it appears to be silicone

Thank you Simon.

Hi Terry, Can you add me please, open electric. Garry Invicta.

You'll be fine. Your plane just has to comply with 5.5.11.1 of the FAI regs. EG, less than 4m span. Less than 5Kg. Fitted with approved height limiter, and electrically powered. Make sure your height limiter is set correctly for F5J, and make sure you either tick Automatic Competition Reset (ACR), or disconnect batteries after each flight in order to reset it. Look forward to seeing you.

A couple of takeaways from the comp. Great to see Rob Coles again, it's been too long, let's all hope that Dave can drag along to the next one. (especially as it's his local hill!). JP flying the Wyvern, it looked a very competative model, fast and it was turning really well. For such a bargain price it was certainly an ideal model for anyone looking at having a go at f3f.

I've sent you a PM.

Wondering whether anyone is flying a Nan Explorer 4 or 5 at the moment and if so what you think of it? If you have or had both how do they compare? I’m currently considering an explorer of some description as my first and only competitive F5J model. Seems the 5 and 4 both have their fans and are perhaps ideally suited to different tasks and conditions, but both are also quite versatile. It would be great to hear some feedback from people flying them in UK conditions.

Great, I’ve never flown any type of comp before so would be an interesting experience.

Hi JBF, all welcome if you have a valid F5L model and BMFA membership/insurance.

yes please Ian, have limitations... Mike

Do you need to be a BARCS member to join?

Blimey, I spent about two years looking for one of these and then three get advertised in the last two days!

Pleased to note that good weather has been ordered and that help is on hand for the aged. As I need both please enter me in for electric class. Cheers Pete
