Re: DART 17r QUARTER SCALE
Thank you, Paul... The maiden flight went without a hitch, and for the first time, nothing needed post-flight adjustment. This could be due to accumulated experience, or just sheer luck! (You're right: definitely the latter) It's a lovely model to fly, even if I would say that, wouldn't I?
Hopefully, next month we will be able get some more action pics and video...

Re: DART 17r QUARTER SCALE
Not a fully annotated plan, Andrew, more of a working drawing, but all the info you need will be there, plus, if you want to cut out your own parts, PDF's in A4 format. c_williams30@sky.com
