Curare 40


I purchased this in an auction and it was built by one of the better builders in the club. I've powered it with a Magnum XL 40 engine (twin ball race) (a .46 wouldn't fit). I've fitted an OS carb off a OS 32 helicopter engine. Test flew it today and it flys well. Impressed with the engine, given that its either a Chinese or Taiwanese in origin.

Have had a couple more flights. She lands faster than I would like (I don't want to stall it at the vital moment).
