Spendthrift! :P

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

Pol, I'll be totally honest, I was never really interest in it.... hmm now I'll be totally honest, it scares me, it started up for no reason one day, prop came off flung around the room, scared me to death and I am to terrified to fly it. I have started it since (with Dad) and it was fine just don't want to fly it. There I said it... haha I do have my 'A' Pol reason why I don't need it, why would I want a trainer when I could spend the money on something I'll enjoy rather than leaving it as a cessna that I don't have really feel like flying..

I'll post a piccy of proof of my 'A' when I find it, for the time being here is what was put on the website (club website)
2012

"Congratulations to Tomas Theobald on passing his "A" Certificate this Sunday" *Check the news page, 6th topic down* Click here for Fenland

I could scrap the whole auction idea? I just want to get rid of it for the best price so I can move on, I really don't feel like flying at all at the moment because the cessna is hanging over me. As soon as it is gone the better!

For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return.

heh hunni, I can't buy it (just spent a fortune on books for uni, rest of money is saved for the upcoming shows, sorry :( )

Have you tried advertising it on the BMFA for sale bit?

I wish I was a glow worm, a glow worm's never glum.
Cos how can you be grumpy when the sun shines out your bum?!

The 25C or 30C is the charging rate, 25 or 30 times the discharge rate. BUT the faster rate costs more, and if you push the charge in at that speed too often, that will kill the lipo anyway.

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

Surely 25C 0r 30C is the discharge rate. Charge rate is normally 1C although some allow up to 5C.

It doesn't look too bad Sarah, hopefully it'll fly aswell as it looks.
Garry it's because the Cessna was big and I had that incident with it, this is smaller and more flexible, I feel more comfy with it I think :)

Bigger models are easier to fly Tom. ;)

There is nothing like a dream to create the future.

Electrickery is the work of the devil.
