Default West 50

Thanks for the replies. Seems I'm not the only one with this problem. I'll compress the seal under the carby and re-tighten and see how that goes. The nut that tightens the carby should really be on the other side of the housing, no room to fit a spanner due to the fuel inlet. Also you can get it with out taking the engine out.

Oh by the way didn't fly it today, maybe next weekend.

I must admit I was a little disappointed with the Magnum. I guess you get what you pay for !!!.
Those elevator control rods are just crap !!!!!!, I replaced them with 4-40 rods and ball links, one on each side of the servo arm.

I hope my disappointment turns to a big when it finally takes to the sky. I know the Eurosport and P160 will when it arrives tomorrow. The Magnum might sit around for a bit longer.
Anyone want to buy a Magnum !!!!!!!!!!

Cheers
Ossie
