I'm looking for a litre or so of something with a decent nitro content, my one and only model shop only has it in gallons, which would last me so long that it would have gone off before I used it! Besides the fact that it's about £35!
Most model shops won't post fuel, Indra and I had a discussion about this a while ago, and to be honest, I don't know the legality of posting inflammable substances!

I can't brag too much, I did scratch build it from parts, but it still is my favorite to fly.

Ivanhoe, the Golden Bee is being held on by one screw. I just put it on there for pictures and wasn't thinking. Good catch.

I would probably wait and build this as your second or third 'big' airplane. Use a .46 unless you can really build light, light meaning replacing the majority of the balsa with contest grade.

Newest plane - Li'l Satan

Old favorite - Stuntman23 (AKA Green Death) Speed built, one week before vacation
A beach flyer, actually been swimming in the ocean

Same Stuntman23 after I turned it into a Wild Weasel.(Got tired of breaking the fuse)
It suddenly became the funnest flier in the fleet!

Li'l Jumpin Bean She gets a regular workout, very fun to fly
She's destined to be a chopper like the Stuntman for the same reason

Stuntman doesn't like the looks of this.
Plane old jealousy?

A '90s version of the Walt Musciano Little Devil

The dining room table
My wife loves me anyway

Li'l Jumpin Bean short video:
More are on the table waiting for the shop to warm up!

Very nice model, and an excellent video, that Cub flies more like a fighter than a sedate Cub, it is, as they say, a bit quick!!

Go on pull that out
OK, Indra, you asked for it!....
Peacemaker, built from Aeromodeller plan, 1959 I believe, stunt/combat model for 2.5cc, the ones I built back then always had Oliver Tigers, this one staggers around on a Chinese Silver Swallow, (no actually it flies it pretty well considering!)
