This was the first of two Sheik's Freedom 45's that I made. This picture was at VSC XX shortly before its demise in a trimming flight. The second built for VSC XXI still exists and flies better, but is still a handfull.

Here is the other one, flying in the rare clear blue Oregon sky.

How close is Pat's Bearcat in this photo to the Brodak version?

Mark Scarborough · « **Reply #56 on:** March 09, 2012, 08:58:27 PM »

Randy Powell may be more sure, But I think this bearcat is a Rabe bearcat. So not much like Brodaks,

well aside from it being a bearcat shaped stuntship,,

wwwarbird · « **Reply #57 on:** March 09, 2012, 09:43:13 PM »

Duh, I didn't think of it Mark but that makes sense, it looks much better than the Brodak outline.

Here are a few shots of my XF-11 in action. Powered by
two Saito 40s, which sounds great when they're in sync.
Of all the planes I've built over the years this may be the
one that is the most just plain old FUN to fly.

I've always liked this shot.

Not my plane! I usually hold the camera not the control handle. Wonderful Naccarato Big Job (I think) flying at Whittier Narrows last year.

K&B 40, pretty much the same thing.

Real question is, what was Les charging for wearing the logo. Didn't do it for free, did you?

Everytime I see one of Elwyns' in flight shots I get that warm, fuzzy feeling that is sort of like----well you know.

Hey, thanks Brett! I hadn't seen that pic before. Saved it! It even shows oil droplets flowing down the fuse.

Here's a couple of my SV-11, flown off "Little Lake", a dry lake just off Hwy. 395 in eastern California, just west of Death Valley by maybe 100 miles. Steve

I nthink this is the SV11 you bought from Jim Holmack-Correct?

So that is a vid mounted on the airplane pointing at you? Is the video avaialble for viewing???

BTW what was the outcome with said angry bird?

John Hammonds · « **Reply #86 on:** March 19, 2012, 04:19:08 PM »

Hi Dennis,
Yes it's one the of cheap "808" Keychain cameras (Weigh about 1oz) which can be bought for a few $ on Ebay. It works far better than it has any right to considering the price.

Don't want to hijack this thread but yes I do have the video somewhere, let me find it and I'll upload it and place the link in the electric Forum. The bird made a few passes but only the one visible from inside the circle. It seemed to lose interest after that.

Rather an ignominious end to the video though I'm afraid, I stuffed it in at the bottom of the Vertical 8 but the camera shrugged it all off and still works. I'm sure I could hear the bird laughing in the distance.

TTFN
John.
