Does anyone know of a supplier of this type of kit in Europe ? Something similar to the Sudokoi or Top Cap. I would love one of the Morris Hobbies kits but they don't have a distributor over here.

Thanks,

Dominic

I love the Morris Hobby planes and currently have a Balsa Nova. I would recomend contacting Morris Hobbies and see if they can ship one to you. Their web site doesn't mention any problems with shipping overseas so you might be in luck.

Good luck,
Mitch

Look at the control line models available in your area. Usually the .15 and larger size profile "stunt" models can be converted to R/C Fun-Fly operation with just the addition of the R/C equipment. (and spltting the "flaps" into the ailerons.)

Usually, REDUCE engine size when going from CL to R/C... No line drag. A plane I had, which was intended for .19 power CL, was overpowered with a weak, old .15 as an R/C 3 ch plane (Rudder, aileron, throttle). About a .10 would have been right.

I have the Morris Hobbies Topcap, and by the looks of it, if you can just get the plans you could build it off of them... The instructions are poor and are about 10 pages long. I think Morris could ship it overseas, give them a call or email
