That's a name for the very very early days of the club!

Whilst not a permanent solution you can just disconnect the power feeds to the motor and wind them to the up position with the knob on the bottom?

Is it possible that the electrical tracks have got contaminated too? Make sure that any motors supplied come with the crank arms, there are a couple of sizes.

Thanks to those that replied, much appreciated. I've managed to sort a solution.

Guy - yes, that's exactly what I suggested he did, and that kept him happy in the meantime. '

I think Reg built his Litton in '88 or '89 and it has been in regular use since then. Converted in the 90s to Alfa V6 power. He must be close to having the award for longest ownership of a Stratos rep!


...As you can see, it's a 2:1 scale replica, and he's a 12ft giant!

Reg was building at the same time as myself! I think Vince Abbott and Phil Jordan may be longer term owners though!
