Default RE: "Nosen Cessna 310 Club"

ME TOO.....an update on the mains. use 5.5" mains for scale size. Dubro pt # 550TL. About $40.00 a pair. Here's an old pic of my 310. I plan on upgrading to the post 1975 long nose 310R version maybe next winter. I glued my wing panals into a one piece wing. If yours is already built with the alum wing tubes,,,your stuck with the flapping action because they fit too loose. Thats why I glued mine solid. Aleiron response went way up !! If your building, then go ahead and use carbon fiber wing tubes if you like, but stay away from the alum tubes that come with the kit. Space them out to fit 5.5" mains with some clearance for the wheel well walls. Other Bud Nosen threads ( By VMEEK) detail my nacelle roof to retract rail bridge support. Highly recomended modification.....Rick Simmons...... Gas engine beta tester for the Twin Sync.
