About Barrie Lever

I am a committed competition modeller, flying RC pylon since 1978 and additionally control line since 2017, although I had held a latent interest in CL speed for decades. I like to make as much of my competition models myself as is possible, this often involves teaming up with other like minded competitors to share the workload.

3D printed handle cheeks

Normally a control line speed handle has nicely carved wooden cheek grips either side of an aluminium frame that the lines attach to. These 3D print files go to make a pair of handle cheeks which are then screwed and bonded to the aluminium frame.
