IGEJS Elektro-Jet Meet in Müswangen

It's pouring rain here in Sattel! According to the weather radar, it should clear up soon. So we head out toward Müswangen. Wow, the roads are already dry in Rotkreuz, and by the time we arrive in Müswangen, the sun is already shining. Markus Frey from MG Müswangen welcomes about a dozen fans of the “cold jet.”

Briefing at 10 a.m.: From now on, we’ll be flying as long as the batteries hold out. The e-jets whiz through the air almost nonstop. Okay, once—for about 20–30 minutes—the weather gods bless us with a few raindrops, but that doesn’t dampen the good mood at all.

Never let bad weather forecasts deter you from your plans.

Foam models are now of amazing quality and fly really well. Still, building your own e-jet remains the ultimate goal for every model builder—and that’s unlikely to ever change.
