Congratulations to Simon Simms of Swindon who is our competition winner for the selection of Silverlit X-Twin DIY Aero System models generously donated by Flying Toys. All the lucky winners of the many prizes in our mammoth competition to celebrate our 300th issue will be published in the March issue. Hi Tony, In November RCMW you asked for models built from plans. Here is my version of Rupert's Dad (plan no. MW3149, RCMW June '05) designed by Roger Groves. I built it over the winter of 2005/6 and it is still going strong today. The few changes I made are as follows: Roger admitted a quirk in the design, which was a step down from the TE to the aileron. I faired in the step. I inverted the engine. Big mistake. I still suffer from the occasional dead stick that I just can't cure.
