Sorry to correct you but that is not Murray Howell. Murray flys an electric model. The pilot shown is Australian Mark Ellins. He is an ex F2C World Champion with pilot Robert Fitzgerald, but this his his first entry into F2B at World Championship level.
I love my Kit built Strega.. I’ve got a.61 in it, all from Brodac. Built solid but much lighter. Got a Sig Magnum with a.61 58 oz, iron on covering on the wings. Painted fues. Love the sound and smell of Nitro in the morning. Terry&ThePirates South Florida
Mine was an aries ... but I never got good enough that the idea of a smoking hole in the ground didn't give me nightmares but I built and flew many other kits when I was in the navy back in the sixties .. while my best work hung in a safe place ..!
I built 2-noblers as a kid the first one came to a horrible end when the up. Line wore out the bellcrank and detached.The carnage undescribabble.I then built a Bob Palmer design Thunderbird.A great model too all using Fox 35 a really sweet choice on 60 ft lines.
Beautiful flying! I loved this plane when I was a kid! First on an 0.49 skyray, then the ringmaster, and finally the Nobler! A friend of my dads actually scratch built a larger size nobler for a os max 46 or a super tiger 60. I still have the plane!
Thank you for the compliment. I also love Noblers. You should find a club near you that flies control line and get your plane in the air again. Watch stunt hanger video hangouts on the stunt hanger RU-vid channel Monday and Friday evenings at 6:45 p.m. Pacific standard Time.
A pilot must narrow his focus to the airplane and only view the airplane. If a pilot looks at the trees and the blades of grass and everything else it will cause dizziness. Great question by the way. Mr Weiss please come and watch Stunt Hanger Video Hangouts every Monday and Friday night I host the show starting at 6:45 pm PST. The show is on the Stunthangar RU-vid channel .
Très beau gieske Nobler...' Vol agréable figures armoneusesi mais 45° trop haut et figures trop grandes Attention aux bases à plat ......!! Mais bon le vent était bien present et tournant . Bravo
It might be difficult to find a narrow enough clunk tank to fit. Building from scratch you could widen the fuselage sides spacing to accommodate a clunk tank possibly. Because I used a super tiger 46 I had to custom make a 5 and 1/4 oz fuel tank to fit in that narrow compartment.
Che meraviglia vedere un super classico del volo vincolato, mito di quando eravamo ragazzi e vedere una bellissuma pista in asfalto. Da noi non ne esistono piu'
Beautiful! Reminds me of College days, MVMAC and Bill Melton, Jim Young, and the Alberson brothers in Las Cruces, NM, USA. They tried like hell to teach me to fly stunt. They deigned the "Road Runner" loosely based on the Nobler,. Although I had the Nobler, I was a lousy builder and it never did fly right...
