Heinrich Dorfmann | 04-May-13 12:35 | Today, I lost my beloved electric soar plane Return 2000, which I have flewn for almost four years. Although it was not a real sexy model plane, it flew well and had very forgiving characteristics. After a break of more than 20 years, I learnt to fly with it again in 2008. Today, in good soaring conditions, I took my eyes of it only for a moment - and it was gone. Hope it does not hit anyone - our flying side is surrounded by some densely populated areas. Now I have to give the plastics a break and finish the Riser 100. Although I still have the box and the plans for the Return 2000, I will probably not rebuilt it - its hard to get the old equipment it was designed for. |
jgood | 04-May-13 19:37 | I sympathise with you on this. I felt the same way when I lost my Tyro after taking my eyes off it for a few seconds... Still, a good excuse to build a new one! Good luck with this one. |
