Editor Kevin Crozier talks us through what the expect in the new January edition of RCM&E.
Let’s take a quick look at some of the main articles in this month’s magazine.
Alex Maxfield is first off the blocks with his review of the Encanto, a 2M span electric powered glider aimed at pilots interested in FxRES, F3L and F5L soaring events.
Our vintage and retro correspondent Shaun Garrity (Retro Ramblings) turns his attention to a brace of classic Veron slope soarers before Danny Fenton (Make It Scale) sends his final report from the 2024 Scale World Championships finishing off with models flown in the top F4C class.
David Ashby (Just For Fun) lends a helping hand at the Bring-n-Buy stall at the Southern Model Show and comes away with a Krick Chicco to refurbish.
If the smell of glow fuel puts a big smile on your face then Neil Hall’s ‘Golden Glow’ article will be right up your street as he brings a much-appreciated spot of IC engine coverage back to the magazine.
Roy Thompson returns with the second part of his short series on restoring a Bowmans Miles Magister before Lorenz Müller looks to a previous biplane design as inspiration for his 48-inch span stand-off Hawker Fury which is this month’s pull-out Pro-Plan.
Graham Ashby (Kick The Tyres) dedicates his next column to a stylish but often overlooked early sports design by Chris Foss, the Wot-Knot. Then it’s over to Dave Goodenough as he tours the flightline at last July’s ModelAir meeting at Old Warden.
