Registered for F3F Open Wasserkuppe

By chance I found the Wasserkuppe  F3F Open  website.
There was no need to think about if I should register or not ;-).
Competition will be held on 25+26 September at Wasserkuppe, Germany.

Now I need an international FAI Sporting License AND a F3F plane!

Elixir

Yesterday, I bought an Elixir from Topmodelz.cz.
Not a F3F plane, but I need something robust for our vacation in the Swiss Alpes in early August.
I only fly my thermal ships on slopes with very good landing zones and when air traffic is not too high.
So you never will see me at Wasserkuppe with a real thermal ship ;-).

Carrera Sagitta - new canopy arrived

Yesterday I received a real new canopy for my Sagitta ;-).
A guy from rc-network.de sold it to me.

Now I can start to do some small enhancements to have a bit more state-of-the-art model.

Elevator and ailerons have to much tolerance and I decided to remove the 30 year old servos (that were still in the plane) against new ones.

Do not want to loose this dream due to a servo outage!

I will take the Sagitta to the Swiss Alps in early August...

one dream of my youth came true: Sagitta Carrera

By chance I found a very nice, ~30 year old  Sagitta in very good conditions today.
I got it for real good price as it is from a club mate who gave it to an other guy 130km away to sell it for him.
That's real luck!

The only thing, I need a new canopy. A common issue for this old Carrera plans...
