Seagull Models Nemesis for sale
A friend from another club has asked me to list his Seagull Models Nemesis for sale, as he needs the space in is hanger. It has only had a few flights and so far shows no hanger rash.
He is offering it as either a bare airframe or as airframe and engine (MLD 35). you will need to supply your own radio gear
He’s asking $300 for the airframe or $ 500 if you want the engine included, which is not a bad idea considering the cowl has been mounted to fit.

For Sale – E-Flite Conscendo Evolution Electric Glider
Asking $250 for this E-Flite Conscendo 1.5m electric glider, BNF Basic. It’s an unwanted gift and only flown once – without crashing I should add.
I added stickers to the bottom side of the main wings for visibility. Also added clear and light servo arm covers. Otherwise, it’s pretty much “as new”.
The Modelflight website includes that this glider “has evolved with a 3S and 4S compatible power system along with a stiffer and stronger airframe. This RC glider can easily handle fun flying to 3D aerobatics and everything in-between”.
Please call or text me on 0412 293 353 if interested. Cheers, James
For Sale – The Kracken
I am letting some of my birds go to new homes. The first is “The Kracken”. This FliteTest designed depron aircraft is a lot of fun to fly. It takes off very easily, handles well, no stall issues (no power, full up elevator and it just settles towards the ground). It can also hoot along at a good pace with the twin motors at full power.
It has been built to accept a wide range of 3S LiPos in a dedicated velcro strap underbelly mount. I have used 3S batteries from twin 2200s to 8000.
The “wow” factor in this bird is its night flying ability. Forget looking for dots in the night sky. The entire body of the aircraft is the light source which can be changed in flight using your 7 channel TX.
The removable bomb hardpoints are included.

Models for sale
Im cleaning a couple of items from the shed and have 2 surplus airframes..
1 x Curare 40.. Hano Pretners anthedral tailed pattern ship. Airframe is solid and will require recover and fitting of your gear. Used to run a 46 with pipe on 10×10 apc. very slick..
1 x executive twin.. twin os26fs powered, operating strobes and still contains all the gear (might want to ditch the 36mhz rx!). Engines have sat for a very long time and will need a good clean and bearings. Bit of hangar rash, but not a difficult project to get back in the air. Very nice flying model with that great twin doppler. It will fly asymmetric but I recommend landing fast…
