The radio control Arrow looks great , but would you take it as a trade in when the real mcoy comes in?

I suspect the Arrow Copter AC10 should have a V added. AC10V... For 'Virgin" - only ever hear about them but have never actually seen one!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Joking of course... Can't wait for the arrival.

A quote from the factory re-flight tests: "Currently on a hold because of weather.

There were, in the meantime, two machines sold to Australia and South Africa, as experimentals. They are out the door, and their respective owners should be flying them pretty soon and also getting experience and test data.

-- Chris."

Ashley, hope to see them in the air soon (^^) (^^)

Ok , let me be the snitch .
Got to Springs yesterday , and saw the " Stig " test flying the Arrow . ( some say he lives near Parys )
I still need to make up my mind , whether she looks better on the ground or in the air. ( the prettiest flying machine of all ,without a doubt)
The 914 seems to have a deep growl and it sounds like she is running on a much lower rpm. Not sure why, but she is very quiet.(might be the massive VP prop)
I had a quick chat to the " Stig " after the first couple of circuits , and he seemed quite impressed.

Ashley, you have put in a huge effort , and have been very patient since you started planning this venture.
You deserve to succeed with the Arrow copter.
You have my best wishes (^^)
