    This morning has been the first chance I got to do some work on the 2nd genesis. Added a layer of carbon fibre in the tunnel, sponsons and up the sides of the hull then put a layer in the hatch to strenghten it up.

        Way to go ozzie. I wish a lot of other guys took the time to prepare their RTR hulls properly.

                      Wish I could buy some. Tho iam starting to get a collection of trophies for rc car racing.
                      I remeber I once brought into a self help program, they send you out a package each month to do from home.
                      First box was "dealing with disappointment" When I opened the box it was empty ;-)

                        Paddy, a box has been sent to Tassy divulging all my driving skills....it was sent strapped onto the back of Dolly but she has become a nymphomaniac and may lose her directions due to other interests. She was told if this happens to open the box and read my pearls of wisdom on driving in order for her to home in on your address.....If she does not show up she probably hit a rock or turned turtle and drowned.....my driving skills are probably as good as your flying skiils....I remember the tree that you landed in and a very pissed off farmer!

                            I have not crashed a plane since then Douggie but there is a pile of broken carbon fiber on a stretch of road near Launceston airport where my SAW car has crashed several times.
                            It will be good to see Dolly here. If she gets here by Christmas I will share her with Doc Wayne when he arrives. She will keep him warm at night.
