Tim's new 'Phase 6' complete with landing flaps

Another Tim Hampshire built model and as usual this one has been built to a high standard but has the addition of landing flaps. This video demonstrates the advantage of having the control and stability of landing flaps a the speed and control of the Phase 6. Video taken during our flying at Ditchling Beacon this morning.


Also, Paul and Rob spent about an hour tutoring Jim and Ian L with their Spectres and Jim's Middle Phase. Both Jim and Ian did extremely well this morning despite the NE gales and driving rain at times. Well done both of you..

  1. Nicely handled Paul. Excellent demo.
    My new Sierra glider kit will be crow-brake equipped. If I can land it at my feet it'll be a first for me!
