Now i am going to be organising a indoor flying event at my school for electric indoor models ;D I was just wondering if anybody would be keen in on coming and having a go ;D I have got a plane that i am re-doing up for the indoor There will be a $10 flying fee and a gold coin entry fee and there will be activities and stuff like that for the littlies and adults alike...There will be a sausage sizzler i am hoping the school will let me use there BBQ for that But if you know of anybody that has a Trex 450 of any type of indoor model and would like to pass on the word would be great ;D I still have to show the principle and stuff like that but i have talked to her and by the way she reacted by it looks very promising I have made up a flyer and a slide show for the night, so if you would like to have a look at that just pm me your email address and i can send it to you ;)I haven't organised a date yet but it will most likely be on a Saturday night from 7pm-11pm Regards, Chris

Excellant to hear, i currently know of the 'Thunderbirds' holding Indoor at the Brendale Sports centre and the BFFS hold their indoor at the Brisbane State High School. Also Toowoomba hold indoor as well. I guess there are others elsewhere that conduct Indoor. If anyone else knows of such maybe they would like to let us all know
Good to see another venue appearing.

300 usd? Seems like a lot of dollars for a chunk of foam…..reckon with a free plan (or own design) and a scratch build something similar good be well made under the hundred dollar mark –shudder to think about crashing that much money into a wall lol. Could do a bit of research to find a design and maybe find the time to help you build it something suitable chris?

So is anybody interested in coming and having a fly ;D
Yer well Felix they are world class competion models and the $300 gets you all the best rc gear for what you need and all you need to do is add transmitter...but yer you could have a look around but i have some actual plans of some planes that would be really good to try out ;D

The E-Flite Extra 260 3D Profile Foamie looks really promising and there is a foamy kit from hstore for $50 and looks nice aswell ;D But that page with all the planes is really good.....i really love the way the Katana looks and i have allways have tho so i will be building that one.....Does anyone know where i can get some 6mm EPP sheets that would be good for the plane....i want to make it out of EPP just so that it is abit more durible...Wat were you thinking of doing Felix
