@charliepossenriede Hi Charlie, it doesn't have to be expensive, some cheap radio gear and a foamie will last a loooong time. Not many hills down your way though, but as seem in this film, you don't need much if you've got smooth sea air

@SpeedsterDEN

Yes, you're confirming everything we thought on the day, Steve's model was a lot better suited as it was heavier than mine, I kept getting spat out round the back and found it very difficult to get any consistent circuits in.

@miniphase One more thing, put on a lot of ballast.

Heavy is good when Dsing, it will track better and be faster over the top.

@SpeedsterDEN

yup, we'll hunt down a biiger site and let you knwo how it goes

all the best
