@PuppyZwolle Hehe, as with most of his inventions they were just ideas on paper :)

Birdie num num? :)

@BasicModelling birdy/batty/bugy whichever you think it most resembles. I snapped the wing stupidly yesterday and I even had better flights on camera - but the blackberry will only record '3GP' files not MPEG so a long and painful conversion process is required for any kind of compilation, ah well.

Going back to my Piper grasshopper build!
