For my birthday recently, the family got me a radio controlled glider which has an electric motor for self launch. I have to do a certain amount of assembly and fit the servos etc. Wonder if I could "log" the hours :twisted:

Hey Tailspin - looking good.

I take it you were doing a PR exercise for/with the EAA ??

I see the photos have a June date, so how is the plane coming along now and when do you hope to fly. I am West Rand based and would really like to see the flight when it happens.. Krugersdorp ??

Hopefully by the end of the Year she should be ready for Final painting and all that. Yes it will be at Krugersdorp.

I was doing a promo for the EAA at the Randridge mall, there was alot of work still to be done but i have progressed alot since then. Getting there one day at a time but i will get there.

Czech Microlight Flyer

Postby Martin » Tue Sep 20, 2005 9:13 am

I am flying this lightweight trike manufactured by Czech microlight company - TL Ultralight (www.tl-ultralight.cz). It is a two seater, empty weight 150kg, Rotax 447. I must say that it is quite economical (some 10l per hour) and still climbing 2,5m/s with two people onboard. I purchased this trike in May 2005, it was not new but "as new" with only 17hours on the counter.
