Hi Tim.
An SRN 1 ....never managed to get mine to work correctly...hovered great but couldn,t get the thrust.
probalby due to the single duct and bleeding off for thrust.

yes its the one from Ebay got it for £15 i have been told that tha model did work well and hovered about 1 inch off the ground

Hi Tim.
Yep mine hovered about the same height, was way back in the 70,s when I built it, powered dy a3.5cc glow engine on its back, never managed to get it to move right though. Battery and motor technology has come along way now so you should be able to sort it. Will it be at Haydock.?.
Regards.
