| Beautiful Steve. Is that the prop you are flying with? |
| SteveM | 01-Nov-08 11:01 |
| Thanks guys, the prop is for display only. For flying I have been using a 7x5 APC prop but am going to try 8" props with a 2S battery when I get the opportunity. |

| Beautiful looking model and it flies too. Nine minutes before the end of the Challenge is cutting it a little close, but you made it. This year it was a real challenge. I hope you had fun with it. |

| I started around June thinking that I would have plenty of time, but work got in the way for two months so I found myself doing a lot of work in the last few days and right up till 11pm when I stopped working so I could clean up and take photos. Maybe next year I'll start before June just in case I need the time. |

| Also, the AUW with flying prop (not pictured here) is 8.75 ounces. I expect that to go down slightly as the LG doors get knocked off. |

| Congrats Steve. Great looking bird there. |

| Thanks! The 2009 challenge looks to be popular as we are doing the inexpensive 600 and 700 series and all rubber power. |

| First off congrats on the win Steve, you definitely earned it in my opinion! What is the Guillows G Challenge and is it something anyone can enter or a private contest? |
| SteveM | 18-Nov-08 19:50 |
| Anyone can enter the G challenge simply by joining the group and following the rules. |
