any combat flyin n the west ?

[luke]

hi folks , havent been here n a bit , showed a friend of mine the joys of slope flying  . Having just flown powered , he was very impressd , that was grand until the inevitable happend ( had a mid air) before we knew it were tryin to knock eachother out of the sky (harder than it looks) but very entertaining ! But we were equipped with the wrong planes for the job in question (both ended up with a little bit of damage ) but both repairable . The question is , we are both fans of warbirds , so where would a fella pick up an epp pss warbird or a reasonably priced combat wing ?
Thanks in advance

Hi Luke,

Sorry, missed your post here.
You can find PSS for combat here : http://miniplumes.eleotech.fr/crbst_5.html

Contact is Luc Chavand.
We used to have the full range in the shop, but not anymore due to the lack of interrest over here
Cheap models, but fly very well (My P51 you can see on the forum comes from him   )

There are certainly others, but I don't really know  :?:

thanks for that fred , ì'll look into it

we dont use rules as such (as in the proper tournament)just one, no head-ons since its just the two of us , we just keep flying , knocking the crap out of eachother  :evil: and keeping score of how many knockdowns we have each when we finish flying

Zagai's are the staple diet here in Cork. I would definately suggest them. J Perkins in the UK supply them. Otherwise the hobbyknig Ridge ryder (very cheap and not so durable)https://hobbyking.com/en_us/hobbykingtm-ridge-ryder-slope-wing-epo-913mm-pnf.html sometimes on sale for 25 euros with servos but oos at them moment

Flyable slopes range from southerly all the way
round to northwesterly. I have to friends that
come up from clonmel every now n then.
west cork would b quite a trek for a days sloping.
we were talking bout meetin up agin in the next
few weeks (aerobatic n heli comps have us hunted away
from the club) 
give me a bell if your interested
