RCM&E's new June 2013 issue goes on sale 3rd May and will be with subscribers very soon.
You'll find not one, but two, free plans between the pages this month and, as usual, it's a packed 132-page issue full of good reading.
ON THE COVER
Hangar 9 has just done something we wish a few more ARTF manufacturers would do. Bucking the Edge / Extra trend, they’ve produced a good ‘ol traditional low-wing sportster that packs plenty of character. Meridian suits glow, electric and petrol although we’ve harnessed it to Evo’s 10cc petrol two-stroke.
