Nice videos of how we used to do it in the old days

Unread post by JohnOSullivan » Sat Oct 18, 2014 6:20 pm

This is a series of three well presented videos of building a rubber powered Hawker Fury from a Veron Kit (one of the very few scale models I ever built- not mine of course)
It will show you the length and efforts we went to in producing these 20" scale models which rarely flew for a minute or so.
It gives us some realization of what limited models were available to us back then and the contrast with what we have available to us today and the convenience we have in putting a totally controllable model in the air.
While giving a very good record of the construction of the model, the animation really shines.
