Hi All, with no joy 
I'm putting my three gliders up for sale. Too busy with work and too many children. Rather they were enjoyed and used as opposed to just been stored years on end. I will post more info later on each one and will gladly send more detailed images to interested parties. All repairs carried out on the models were professionally carried out. I cant remember the exact servos which are in each model but they are all definitely Hitec and the F3L has digital ones. I will check this evening and also exact wing spans. Both Lesky models were built by Tony Fu in the UK. All models come with 2.4ghz Hitec receivers. Obviously these can be removed. The Pace F3L comes with recessed servo arms (sorry cant remember the name of this kind of set up but makes the wings very slippery and see image attached!) Ballast, wing and tail bags all come included. All the models have very good low and high wind flight characteristics.
Thanks Ed
Vikos F3F (Carbon layup on wings) 2910mm €475
Lesky Composites F3L total carbon 3200mm €700
Lesky Composites VXH total carbon 2500mm €550

For Sale / Blaster 3 DLG SOLD
« on: September 22, 2014, 20:04:28 PM »
Hi Guys,
Happy New Year! My Vladimir Models Blaster 3 is still for sale. It has a carbon fuz, kevlar 2.4 friendly nose cone and carbon reinforcements in the wing layup. It comes with an integrated 60g ballast system. In the cockpit there are (x4) Ripmax SD150 a Rhino 2s 360mAh lipo and a Hitec Optima 6 lite (with telemetry). I can sell receiver ready or not. The glider has had some use and the photos will hopefully show the ware with is present on the wing and rudder. Ideally a new rudder should be bought so I will take the price of a new one into account. I have had two Blaster 3's and loved them. Pretty easy to fly and a great way to get into the sport. Reason for selling? well I just don't have the time to fly anything at the moment! Im in Dublin regularly so could meet there if that helps as Ive moved to East Cork!
Cost me the guts of €694 new
Selling €390 receiver ready
€355 without
Thanks,
Ed

Slope Soaring / So Who is traveling this Weekend?
« on: March 16, 2011, 11:09:15 AM »
Hi there Richard, good to hear from you. I ended up going for a Blaster 3 which I'm pretty excited about but was originally going to go with a PCM Mini Fireworks Q with ailerons but my 2.4 radio gear just wouldnt get in so just ended up going for a full size instead. I would have prefured a 1 meter to train myself to start off on till I got my confidence but hopefully it will be ok . Funny you should mention Canvey Island because i met the guy who compiled Slope Hunter a few weeks ago and that is one of the slopes he's mapped on his site. I havent been there yet but your right it's not that far. These are some of the other slopes i checked out which are a bit of a treck but doable . Walton on the Naze are small sandy cliffs near to me with a very nasty rotor, Thurnham Castle Hill in Kent which works pretty well considering it's not a big slope and always a good bunch there and then there are the South Downs which are in the Irish League but not quite :lol: And Ivinghoe Beacon which is the completely other side of London Near Oxford which was the first slope I few at. Depressing to say the least, everybody was so enthusiastic about the slope but I couldn't believe how small it was! I had just come from Ireland with mega uncrowded hills to this!!. 2 years with possibly no slopes close by!!! All sorted now as I have scouted a few bumps closer to me that could serve as micro slopes and a chance to learn alot I guess about a different kind of soaring with dlging. Silly I never bought one at home though I was close to it, shame as I would have learnt alot from you and the Lads. How are you getting on with your DS Bird? any dsing,any video? Looks like alot of fun that ship, still very tempted! Hows the Vector? I see Hammond is starting up his own operation now, very exciting!

« on: March 15, 2011, 23:44:16 PM »
Hi all,
just thought id take peek between college work to see how you are all getting on over there and looks like im missing out! Plenty of cold but happy faces I see and lots of models too! Successful weekend then, though im sure Fred was happy I wasnt there and trying to go through one of his big scalies
I will never forget those piloting skills Fred! Hope she's flying well again mate, sorry about that. Great to see some images of Mt.L and all the usual faces, I really do miss the craic on the slopes at home, don't know when i will be back but hopefully over the summer sometime though work looks pretty non existent right now! The course is going really well though I ended picking probably the worst County to go sloping in! Essex is as flat as a pancake so i have resorted to buying a dlg to get get some kind of regular fix! It's in the post so should get it pretty soon fingers x'ed. I am getting some gliding in though it requires alot of driving to not really the best of flying sites which are crowed. Wow I'm missing those Slopes at home, you guy's really are so lucky.
Any ways I do hope you are all well and if any of you need a place to stay this side of the pond your always welcome and it would be pleasure to put you up and show you the Essex night life!!, we are only 20 minutes from Liverpool Street by train and the same from Stansted Airport in a bus.
Thanks,

Well what a day at Mt.L! Between my slicing Fred`s wing off his 4 meter ship in a mid-air collision(really sorry that that happened buddy, really shame 
) and Keith's miraculous escape from loosing both wings during flight! and sorry i nearly forgot the best part of the story for those not there, Fred actually managed to recover from the impact then land with 1.5 wings and with only one aileron :clap: :clap: :clap: Had to be there to see the piloting skills! Thanks Lads for the great day out, looks like i wont make tomorrow so have a good one, and hope the heads weren't to sore in the morning :lol: So Hope Sunday is slightly less uneventful, good to see and fly with you all in such a special spot.
See you maybe around xmas

Hi Fred and Keith,
Thanks Guy's for the tips about the slope. Nice to be tipped off about the Moo Cows, could be a bit of a pain for the old landings! So the Farmer is cool about people walking through his field, thats great. Hey Fred i get what you mean regarding the V's.
Keith are you around Sunday?

Hey Fred,
I have been wanting to go to this slope for sometime now and looks like Sunday will be good, nice and windy One question, to get a SE facing slope do you have to walk far or do you just fly with a sightly cross wind?
Thanks
