Did you want to have the cookup on the SFA site or this Guillow site? Also, you might want to explain what a cookup is. You and I know, but others may not.

Good idea Supercruiser.........what is a cook-up????

by **Madman Stephan** » Thu Aug 31, 2006 7:59 am

Cook-up? Never heard of it. Is that like a BBQ? I'll bring chicken wings!

I to do not know what a cookup is.

I do know it something to do with a web site that you do stuff on.

But that is a very vague description. If I knew, I would (most likely) post an ok.

Hey guys,

I think a 'cookup' in this sense, is when a number of people start to build the same model at the same time. I guess that can then lead to a competition with the model with the longest flight time winning.

I've never done a free-flight guillows... I could be persuaded! I'll have to see if my LHS has a 150 for sale.

Well james,you are in for a treat!there is nothing like watching your creation take flight,Flew freeflight for years before the r/c bug hit me and i have just recently returned to freeflight,It will tack your patiance at times but the enjoyment you get building and flying make it worh while!I always get chills up and down my spine every time i release a model,

by **jamesgood72** » Tue Sep 19, 2006 9:53 am

Sounds great, Freefall.

What sort of flight times should be expected from the 150? I wonder if there is enough room in my park. What's the life expectancy of one?! I love my r/c Guillows Fairchild 24, but it all seems very different letting it go with no control at all!

Well James i am not sure of flight times bu i beleive times of 2-3 minutes are not out of reach,lettin go is not hard just be sure to balance the model balance will make it or break it,and build light,
