Finally got it all put back together. I'm her third owner but she's not done many flights.



Ran turbine in garden this morning. Perfect first start, not a pop or a bit of flame. Hoping to test fly soon, will post back then (good or bad!!)

Three owners, and only a couple of flights?? Bit of a handful? :evil:
It looks good, though.

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

Next flight will be my maiden. They are great models but her first owner was not keen on sports jets and her second owner just had other things to fly and she got relegated. When funds were neede for the next project she got sold on......to me.

I bounced my Ultra Flash down the runway at Long Marston after a bad approach (completely my fault) and scratched pretty much every corner, and in anger I sold it. This is what I bought to replace her, something a little more scale (even though I still want another Ultra Flash at some point).

Will try and get some video, once the maiden is out of the way.

Some pictures of the install. Not my work, but had all leads out and changed a few things on the plumbing, but it was a pretty neat set up already.





Cheers,
