I really wish I could have been there.  I had a stressful day and would have much rather been flying.  Glad I could be a small part in it.  When you start planning your next one let me know.  I'll block off that week way in advance.  And give a better prize next time too!

Glad it cleared enough to go ahead with it though!

Hey Tom,

Well done organising the fun fly.
I would have loved to be there. Maybe if this becomes an annual event, I might make it over there and see you guys?
I'll try to bribe Steve to come with

Thanks Tim For your support.
My son got one of the servos and told me to thank you. He said it was the best door prize he ever had.

Look for the date soon. The club meets on the first Tuesday of every month.
Proposed date is the weekend after Memorial Day. I stole this date from My other Club that I belong to and they want it back.
But it has to be approved by the Club first.

RedwingRC

cool, so june 4th 5th 2011?

Tseres

Oh you want to have a two day event? That may be a good idea. Will See.

Tseres

I have two emails this morning to tell me that There is a half page News Paper article on the F/I.
Have to call my son to pick me up a paper.

RedwingRC

Cool!  congrats on the article

Yeah, you should do a 2 day camp out, ha!

Tseres

Camping is free at the site and two people did from Thursday on. They are actually staying till this afternoon.
I'd love to have one of those self contained campers.

Another happy customer. The JC 28cc engine runs great right from the start.

RedwingRC

Right on man!  That thing looks like the real deal in the air!  Cool plane

Tseres

Congratulations on the maiden. Let us know how that combo works out for you. I have been looking at the plane since they brought it out. It is a good looking plane.

Does anyone know if the new YD-A 64 twin will have plugs that stick straight out or angled down to fit tighter cowls?

The photo was taken by a friend of mine who is a semi pro. It was the perfect day the sky couldn't have been more blue one of the few clear day's we have had this year in the indland northwest.

Now if only that muffler pipe was not sticking out like that who would be sure it was not a full scale on a fly by.

Hi Bill,

I flew my 96" Cessna 152 for the first time yesterday. A perfect plane for the 28cc.

I had some misgivings upfront if this was going to be enough engine for a 96", 7Kg plane rated for 26-40cc but I had more than enough power.
Very smooth running and good acceleration.
This was on an 18x8 prop

Michel

Love the news about the Cessna 152 , and that was plenty of power , I,m counting on power from this engine . And from what I have already witnessed , it,s a power house .

Well ,.................... I,ve been busy . I have installed a JC-28cc in a CMPro , Zero 120 , I picked it up second hand and has never flown . It came with a RCV 120 , in almost new condition . For my own personal preference , I,m rebuilding all the servos and control hardware . ( I,m fussy , I hate sloppy mechanics ) . I kept all the rods perpendicular , as much as possible . And I also kept it snug , especially for the low end , where it counts . I don,t mind all the weight I need up front . These models always comes out tail heavy , and to a warbird , thats death .

Also . I changed my choke set-up from that spingy set-up , to an indented set-up . I did this by just drilling the indents on the shafts and added a ball and spring to the carb body . ( the spring and choke I got from an old carb , that had an indent system )

Here are some pictures

BTW ,.............. on the second from last picture you can see the up-step on the prop shaft

Hey Michel,

I love the way you have done the throttle linkage!

A mate has one of those Zero's and she flies great. I think you will really like it

IIMAC,

Awsome photo!
You wouldn't have any photos closeup of the engine installation and particularly any cowl cuts you had to make?

I'm in tough negotiations with the Minister of War and Finance for a budget for one of those. I used to have the 85.5" Taylorcraft (the original Minicraft one) and loved it.
I flew that plane on a G26 (magneto) and she was great. One of the best flying planes I have had

Michel

Hi

Wine Flowers and dinner , my dear friend , and also , doing something she has asked you to do 1000 time,s do it
