Align Trex 600 with a zenoah 20cc petrol engine fitted. The conversion is all home made so it’s not something you can purchase off the shelf. Definately the first 50 sized gasser I’ve personally seen.

It’s not just the flying that’s hot out here. To be fair though it’s a very dry heat (unlike the very humid heat we get in the UK) so it’s not uncomfortable at all, it just burns you to a crisp unless you have a very high factor suncream on. Sounds like the weather is on the turn for the weekend with 30-40 mph winds forecast for Saturday & thunderstorms & 59 degrees only for Sunday. It looks like you may have a better flying weekend back home!

There is also a short video of clips from the day which we will add to the videos page once it has uploaded and processed on youtube.

We walked along the side of the Canyon and peered over the edge a lot. Some of us (not me!) a lot closer to the edge than others
I’m carrying a war wound too.. dammit. I fell down the Canyon, but luckily I bounced
