Does Nick have hard figures of how many paying attendees their were over the last 5 sessions?. Divide £1500 by that number and you will have a good idea of the likely cost per person for the season.

Agree a number of people and the cost for them as individuals and if they put the money up front call them the venue sponsors. Then agree a session cost for any other people that want to use the venue, at the end of the season 2 choices come to mind.

Use the money accrued to offset the sponsors following years upfront payment or divi it out and start again for the following year.
As for juniors. Some would think they should pay and some wouldn't. Perhaps those related to "sponsors" could be free and "turn up on the day juniors" could have a small fee levied on them.

A replacement receiver will certainly solve it. Pity that it leaves you with a TX that you cannot use with the main stream receivers, bin it I guess...

I guess it would be too easy to expect it to have a hidden internal switch to flixk it from positive to negative shift [;)]

Considering they are trying to measure CO2 levels I too think electric would be a better solution.

As Tony put it "cough-cough-splut..." and splat, hmm lots of CO2 volcano may erupt soon... Maybe its part of the detection instruments [:)]

The type and weight of aircraft will make a big difference. Have a look at this post I made about one of my models:-
http://www.rctalk.co.uk/forum/topic...OPIC_ID=4592
This is a lightly loaded vintage type model. It is 60 inches span (a bit more than 1.5m) but only weighs 4 pounds (just under 2kg) and has a high lift undercambered wing. Maximum flight duration with the setup as posted is over 30 minutes.

Dave]]> Solaris 3D Heli for sale CHEAP MustangP51 http://www.rctalk.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4829 For Sale Mon, 17 Nov 2008 21:25:27 +0200 http://www.rctalk.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4829 i have an rtf solaris/falcon 3d heli for sale. I have found that i am more interested in fixed wing hence the reason for sale. Heli has been used once in which a very very minor crash occured which has slightly bent one of the paddles (3 quid for spares). this does not affect flight performance but thought i should mention it. Heli comes in box with all original accesories, i will also be prepared to throw in a partly built gws estarter if decided, again in box. The price is £100 (was £160) new and is in perfect working condition. I will listen to offers but think this is a pretty fare price for a once used BL lipo heli.

No pictures as am not currently at home until december, therefore shipping can only be carried out in about two or three weeks. Just trying to gauge interest, i will not take your money whilst i cannot immediatly send the heli.

Further notes: Shipping extra (£10)
