The Micron telephone line will close for the Christmas / New Year break at 4pm on Tuesday 20th December. We will continue to process and dispatch orders over the holiday, but the turn-round time will be longer than usual. We wish all of our customers a happy christmas and a successful 2012.

Micron R/C is now focussing on micro and indoor models. The web site pages will soon change to reflect this and make it easier to compare kits and R/C components. We are having a sale of all products which do not fit within the new product range and these are available, while stocks last, at discounted prices.

Flight Line Plans Whisp

The Whisp design was inspired by the rubber powered Wakefield models from earlier years and brought up to date with a brushless motor and LiPo power.

The construction is strong, yet light for the size and therefore offers the possibility of a fast rate of climb and extended duration flights from limited motor runs. If you haven't tried this method of building a fuselage previously, you'll find it both challenging and rewarding.

Why the name?
'Whisp' is an acronym for Warren Hill Salisbury Plain - one of the flying sites licensed to the Test Valley Flying Club - where Paul and Gordon can be regularly seen flying one or more of their designs.
