Hey Guy's

I wonder if they are going to offer the plane in an ARC version like they did the Jug? It certainly would save allot of us quite a bit of time stripping the covering off the ARF. Here is my choice for the new scheme.

That prop reminds of the typical rubber prop

There is a pic on the previous page. Should be a perfect engine. just a matter of if you can live with the caps slightly exposed out of the cowl. This being a warbird and not a scale model, I bet it is a perfect option. Especially if it will be a throw around, everyday warbird ARF for events and such.

Tfarmer96,

What FW190 is that you're building? Also, what do you need from me in order to make that hood emblem and an address to send the money. Thanks

Status: online 		I just received my electric retracts back and they work perfectly. The only thing I would add is be very careful that the wheel is perfectly aligned with the wing opening so that it doesn't touch or bind when the gear retract. I would suggest mounting and trying them without the wheel attached to be sure that the alignment is correctbefore trying them with the wheel in place.

Status: offline 		Well, the wing is just about finished. Got the gear mounts installed yesterday, all sheeting reparired. Used some lightweight spackling to fix the dings. Tomorrow sanding and monocote. I got my gear parts from Robart in about 3 days. So far I have spent less than $100 in the repairs. Once i get it flying again I will order a new cowl, decals and gear doors. Will be good as new. I need to find out why the motor quit running before I fly it again.

Sorry about your trouble...
If you are running a DLE motor I have found the high speed needle is set too lean on the club members around here.
They will start and run great.....till they get fifty foot in the air.
Don't be afried to play with the HS needle....the low speed is perfect.
Jim
PS...I haven started on mine yet as I have to finsih up another bird first.
