Vulcan

This is the  build of Green Air Designs www.greenairdesigns.com Vulcan B2 36" wingspan with two brushless pusher motors.

Its going to be finished as the Vulcan that bombed the runway at Port Stanley in the Falklands  - XM607 Which is on display at  the RAF base Waddington in Lincolnshire.  Highly recommended the book Vulcan 607 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Vulcan-607-Rowland-White/dp/0593053915.  The operation was know as Black Buck and wouldn't have been possible without the Handley Page Victor tankers, about a dozen were required.  XM607 was actually the backup as XM598 had a problem with a window seal had had to turn back.

The raid at the time was the longest bombing raid ever - 8,000 miles.

The model is made from Depron and now completed hoping to get he madien fight on the 17th or 18th Oct 2009 .  If you click on the first image a slide show will start. 

Maident flight was on the 18th October.  Complete success and flies really well.  Just a few things to tweak such as throws abd a bit way to grip the model when launching.

Have a very small piece of video, my camera man forgot to press record on the launch.  Will get a better video asap 

 Thanks for looking
