Hoping to start mine next week, plans printed and new No11 blade fitted to scalpel.

Hi Gordon.
Not sure about a pod yet. I’ll see how she goes first.

Just started the build. I’ve built the center section of the wing. Seems to be going together quite nicely.

I recommend a small length of thin piano wire around 80mm in length adding to the trailing edge in the center section to stop the rubber bands cutting into it. After sanding the T/E it’s quite thin at the back.

Its been awfully quiet here of late. Does that mean nobody other than Ron is building a Goblin? :lol:

My kit turned up tother day (thanks Neil ;) ), but I thought that I'd give those of you in the mother country a head start :P

That's my excuse, what about the rest of you then???
Cheers,

Cheeky bugger....
Afraid to say some of that real life stuff has rather messed up the next couple of weeks as far as building goes <sigh>
OTOH I was gifted a Skyleader Tx so I now know what my next 2.4 conversion is going to be. So not all bad.

I have one to build, and it's moved up the queue since finishing the Starstream.

"Thank you for waiting. You are number 17 in the queue" :lol: :lol: :lol:
