I knew it wouldnt be long before you popped up on here. I think I am going on sat afternoon now to pick it up as long as this guy picks the solo up. I should be back by about 3-4ish if you can spare 10mins off from your family day.

..... Who worked out how to make it go in light winds...


Can't believe you'd prefer brown nosing the deck of a Contender everytime
you tacked to the free and easy blasting in a Blaze..

Put wires on it and a kite.

No more Contender issues.

The contender has much more pedigree then the blaze Grumpf.  Trouble is with blasting in the blaze is its just not a 300!
