RCM&E Magazine May-20 Back Issue

Join us for the May issue of RCM&E as we celebrate the 60th birthday of Radio Control Models & Electronics magazine. We take a look back at the very first issue, published with a cover date of May 1960, noting some of the modelling products that were popular at the start of the Swinging Sixties, before bringing everything bang up to date! Inside we look at two super scale models of an atmospheric Blackburn Monoplane and a gorgeous Tiger Moth, plus we offer several model building projects in the form of a Yak-9 air combat warplane, Simples Max - a one metre wingspan control line style flying wing, and a recreation of Sigma, an easy to build micro glider which was a centre-spread plan way back in 1972.All this, plus several of our regular columnists return with features on some of the most popular kinds of model flying - Just For Fun for sports models, Bench Blog for model builders, Make It Scale for scale model enthusiasts, Weekenders to show how to survive an extended stay in the workshop during the lockdown and On Silent Wings to tempt us with calm weather summer soaring trips to come - fingers crossed!
