Gloster Meteor F Mk 4 van PHiB schaal 1:5

Mhhh, all went well, till just after the touch and go.
The elevator throws were way to big but could be handled well, until I set full flaps, then things went off scale.
100% my own stupid fault, but he is on the building table again.

Also have a lot ideas for when I want to prepare the 2nd fuselage and wings.

But here the video with a less nicely end.

I have converted the Meteor to 2x Kingtech K70 G2.
The empty weight is now just under the 21kg, with 4ltr of fuel the flying weight will be around 24kg, 3kg lighter then with the P80.

If I install Electron Retract ER-50`s I will lose another 750gr., when I make a new model I think I can bring it down to 19kg empty weight and +/- 22kg flying weight.
