I am giving up my (almost) life long hobby of building and flying model aircraft. From an early age of balsa cement, razor blades, tissue covering and winding rubber motors, through the dawn of proportional radio control and up to turbine powered jets. Then a period of skills decline as age and infirmity took its toll. I finally took the hint after a series of crashes nearly all of which were caused by me trying, but unable, to emulate my skills of old. After my last (expensive) crash I sold my remaining models and my stocks of building materials and covering, but that leaves a myriad of modelling tools and accessories that I have now catalogued and can offer for sale.
I am offering modelling tools, airframe and radio accessories, electric flight motors and ESC's, FrSky receivers and telemetry modules and much more. These are items that I have acquired over the years, and which I no longer need. Much of what remains is quite rare nowadays and not easy, or even possible, to find elsewhere. "Balsa Bashers" will find much of interest here.
It's sad that I have to finally give up my lifetime (on and off) hobby, but being now, having just made it to 80, I've decided that it's time to lower the curtain and exit.
