It was a little daunting this afternoon, arriving with my Scanner to maiden and seeing Gbar's #2 Scanner laying in the back of his ute, in kit form, again. Well done on the super-swift rebuild though Gbar. Record time!
Mine performed well. No surprises with mine. Everything was super predictable on low rates (11mm of travel) and even on high rates, it almost refused to stall power off and during power-on full-pull turns. It eventually tried to roll out of the turn, but only when the speed bled off. It could also have been torque induced, I'm not sure. It appears that glow engines go out of tune a little when one of the two carby retaining screws falls out during flight. It seems the big gaping hole left behind leans out the mixture somewhat...
I hope the forecast for rain on the Gold Coast holds off. Can't wait to hear how our local talent fares at the Scanner racing there this weekend.

Everyone knows that REAL ENGINES are used by REAL men. Eklectic motors are best left for use in toothbrushes and other unnecessary things.
