Retro Day this weekend

Hey folks
I haven't had much time lately, but I've read a lot in the forum.
Now I've finished my exams and have more time for other things.

This weekend we have the so-called Retro Day in our model flight group in Switzerland.

Everyone is once again taking their old models out of the basement and bringing them out into the fresh air. RC Plane

I'll take a few small Cox and other methanol models with me.

I take photos for our club website, if interested I can share photos here as well. Maybe I'll make a little video.

It was just a bottle, we wanted to test the ejection function. Wink

Here it is.
The engine was set a little too rich to not climb away directly.
With a well-adjusted engine, the model climbs very quickly.
