I was on eBay last night looking for a rtf glider just to get back into it nought special just a 2 channel elevator and ailerons
I would have run off with it when I was 6 or so!

I use a Parkzone Radian for aerial photography, it's such a relaxing bird to fly you can let go of the controls and have a conversation then look up and it's barely moved! It does do loops and stall turns too.

I'd recommend one if you just want something convenient and cheap ish

I've got a load of warbirds to get rid of, interested? :D :D

Yep a nice ride to Grain on a Sunny day. The bike had a good thrashing, I treated her to a bit of Super and she liked it. :thumbup:

washed 400 miles of flies off it after a great trip to France for 6 days, wow they do like there bikes over there and there was some great fast sweeping bends. paris was manic but good and the coast down the left side was fantastic. Blasting out of the Toll booths was great fun too, French Cops were ok and happy for you to drive fastish but sensible, ferry crossing was great too, chatted all the way and on the way back.i may have to go for a long weekend in sept/ oct. I stayed in "Marmot" hotels 33e per night and very clean but a bit small.

Good to hear more good news of France. I leave for France on the 5th. Really looking forward to it. Glad to hear you had a good time.

Changed the plugs!
The last ones had been in for twelve thousand miles and tick-over was a little erratic. Air filter done last month and oil and filter happening tomorrow :D

Plugs don't look too bad considering the use they've had. Guess which was the front and which was in the rear...no prizes mind you :wink:

Yep!
Middle one it is :D Well done lads, cant understand why the rear one was soo dirty though. Its very well protected from the elements.
Bike feels so smooth now when cruising into work this morning. I wouldn't have believed there was such a change if you had told me. Just goes to show how you don't notice the small changes over time. :crazy:

Well, I got bored when I got back from work so air filter & plugs are done :)

I'm off out now to see if there's any difference, I hope it's a minor revelation like you've had Pete.L!

Ok this one might be a little trickier as the plugs seem pretty new... Image
