Donovan's spotted electric pusher, made mostly of paper covered foam. The airframe cost R30 to make.

Malcolm Stiles sent me these photos of my Junior 60.

Thanks Malcolm, let's have more.

He also took this photo of an Sbach 342, and the one below of Alex.

Alex' electric Sandown. Originally a free flight  PAAload design.

Norman's electric DC3

Darren's Beaver had its first flight today.

(Darren is a visitor to the club)

Malcolm uses a special tool to hold up the wings of his jet while he rigs the servos.

I love the technology of aeromodelling, it's simple and elegant.

Lars's electric Stick Boss.

Grant and Tim were at the field this morning practicing with their electric aerobatic biplanes.

Duncan's electric Meerkat. 

Izak's new Mustang.

Marco's electric plane had its first flight today.

The Large and the Small.

Howard's 6 m glider on aero tow behind Adrian's tug, and...

...Michael's  electric bipe complete with on board three axis gyro.

Christo's electric Apprentice had its first flight today.

Francois' electric had its first flight today.

Powered by an externally mounted ducted fan.

Colin's many Yaks.

Adriaan's electric aircraft, simple, effective and great fun.

A little windy but a good turnout of pilots and aircraft.

Including Andre's electric delta.

Peter's electric Miss Wind S.

Today there were encounters with Mother Earth.

Malcolm's delta suffered a wrinkled nose.

The damage to Christo's Eratix was more serious when an aileron came off in flight.

Shawn's Stik with Magnum 91 power and fuselage covered in carbon cloth and epoxy.

Francois' electric Addiction.

Flemming's electric glider now has an on-board variometer. Well, more than just a variometer. It's combined with a GPS device. It measures, records and transmits not only the rise and fall of the aircraft but also speed, height, location -- the Full Monty.
The feedback to the pilot is by a rising and falling tone punctuated every now and then by a businesslike female voice giving height above ground.
The tube attached to the fin is a Total Energy Sensor. This allows the device to integrate the kinetic and potential energy of the aircraft. In theory, if the aircraft loops, exchanging speed with height around the loop, the device will give out a constant tone. And so it does. I've seen it with my own eyes, and heard it with my own ears.
Remarkable.

A couple more shots of Alex and his electric Four Square.

Basil's new Ava E. It drew many admiring glances. And when it flew all were impressed.

Here's a clip of its first launch, Francois doing the honours.

Model helicopters are works of miniature engineering art.

Here's Gerald's Cabrinha, now with a four cell battery.
