Thanks, Mark...Jim had the Demisolle he campaigned for a couple of years, right? If so, then I am not surprised at how good the Wright Flyer came out...

Guys,
Thanks for the kind comments about my airplanes. I have really enjoyed watching the interest in the scale competition grow at E-FEST. I learn lots each year and I thank each of you for sharing your techniques. I was disappointed my 1909 Wright Flyer didn't get to fly the whole routine because of motor problems that caused yaw problems and ultimately motor failure. The good news was no damage. I hope to bring back the 1909 Demoiselle and the 1909 Antoinette next year along with the Wright Flyer, not for competition just to fly. The Demoiselle and Antoinette are at the EAA Museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin as a part of the model airplane exhibit. Now I'm looking at other airplanes from this era for E-FEST 2012. Mark thanks for taking these exceptional pictures and for sharing them with us on this forum. Jim |

Thank you for the info. Insight into how pro's do it is always very handy. I understand that equipment doesn't do the job without a little help , but it's all good stuff to know. Regards Dereck Who, despite all that, may be updating his birthday/christmas wishlist! |

See, I said it, low and behold, both of Jim's models that he flew at E-Fest in years past are in a Museum. Most of the models this year could be there also. The Wright Flyer was exquisite in my opinion.
Grim's heli was excellent also. Oh my such great work for just a few minutes of flying in front of bunch of people. Conehead Orrin Eldred |

RE: Gallery few E-Fest pictures
Hello,
I truly agree with you lesodell. The spark was definitely missing this time in Efest. Everything was there but I just could not figure out why was there so less crowd. The enthusiasm was also missing among the youngsters this time. Hopefully it goes well the next time. And ya great pics Mark. __________________________________________________ ______ Check this out: Children's Outdoor Toys and Outdoor Toys |
