Thanks for the reply Roger. That's great news I'll look how best to modify the model and get an order off to you. I did follow the link in your post and saw the igniter but not the L2L's (Unless I'm doing something silly)

Roger comments: I've replied with details etc by email, Chris. :kiss:

Following requests for a more powerful motor Piotr has been testing his new TSP L-5 which he opines, "Will be big enough for any model you can build, or even a trip to the moon":



These are of course likely to be quite expensive and storage and transport too are a challenge. I think I'll stick to the L-1 and L-2 type variants! :lol:

Having now seen the motors in the flesh, they look very good. They seem fairly easy to ignite, give a yellowish smoke with a different and not so fruity smell. Thrust seems well centred by the nozzle and consistant throughout the duration which looked to me around the 20 second mark. Looks good.

Andy.

As Andy says (and he's not an easy guy to impress) the new TSP motors - both L-1 and L-2 looked good on the flying field and we have good stocks of a variety of L-2L motors to suit models which need a low, medium and high thrust.



I shall be testing the motors again over the coming weeks and hope to confirm Piotr Tendera's assurances that his motors have a 'shelf life of four years'.

But, meanwhile, we can plan our winter building program with the confidence we will have the motors to fly them! :cheer:

Lighting motors is a knack, of course, but we will be looking at a bespoke igniter that will glow even in a breeze and last a day's flying.

A little video I made of Sunday's flying session. I was assisted by a friend, his wife and his young daughter who can be heard enthusing in the background.
