What are you doing this weekend

[Mark Grant]

A 1/6 scale 44" span 1cc diesel powered free flight Flying Flea and possibly a nine foot span free flight Mick Smith Mercury. I have access to a laser cutter so I want to remove the drudgery of hand cutting out the ribs and formers if I can.

Mercury Flying Flea

I would think the flea may be a git to trim, and as for a 9' free flight.... Respect!

Riding up The Snake and then Winnats Pass Sat AM, then family time with the kids for the rest of the day. National trust trip on Sunday probably Little Moreton or Lyme Park.

Didn't the Flea have a reputation for falling unexpectedly out of the sky due to the airflow from the upper wing interfering with that of the lower one?

Something like that.

The model is a bit easier to fly.
