Duchess

Well I remember reading an article in Aeromodeller about control line biplane stunters and one of those was (the) Duchess. Well I managed to buy one and here it is. I have removed the engine to see if I could fit a larger one but it would require too much modification so I will stick with the ASP 25.

Control line flying in Wellington, New Zealand

Well I made a self launcher and as I had got my Peacemaker ready for flight, I went down to test run the OS 20 on the model. Turns out the muffler came lose but I did manage to get one flight in. These days control line is generally only flown by a few keen modellers. One great thing about it is you don't need a large area to fly in. As long as you have a quiet model and are away from the general public, you can have some fun.
