Hey Wattsup
Dave Lockhart, won the 2011 Nat's using a Neu F3A motor and not a Hacker Q-60, Dave has been using the Neu motor for the last few years.
In fact , I dont know of anyone that used the Q-60 at the 2011 Nat's, there were some Q-80 used. I own to Q-60, an I'm not happy with that motor so I went back to using my Himax 6330-210
Ac Glenn flew at the Nats with Q-60 I build the 2 Visa he flew at the NATS

Hallo Frederic,

So all the kits basic and classic you have to drill the holes yourself in the foam for the wings and stabs?.

Do the kits come with adjustable wing and stabs adjusters?.

Thanks.

Hello,

I don't know if the hole is drilled, mine is not drilled but I've a pre-serie kit, with the commercial kit actually you must contact Pascal Nowik at Aerocompet, I'm just a friend and I don't work with or for Aerocompet.....contact him at http://www.aerocompet.fr/mag/fr/contact.php for more answers.

Hi,

I use Secraft control horns with M3 Kato ball bearing for ailerons and elevator and M2 Kato for rudder and I use Marquet carbon spinner, size of fuselage is 82 mm but I try to use a 75 mm size for air cooling around the spinner like Matt "Citrin".
Fuse isn't painting also no more pics........I hope mid march later and end of march for the first flying test !!!
