Any word on the gear fit and function? I could probably afford a set of these pretty quickly, and get busy on my 310!

Bryan you will have to wait a bit they are currently on back order, go to the Hoby King site and do the "e-mail me when they
are available" request so you can jump on them quickly when they get them back in again.

Working on an old hit and miss engine.
Going to make a electric generator with it for a over sized field box.

Na, this is flying season. My 310 is on display at the local mall, I"ll get back to it in the fall.

The last thing I was working on was the air cylinders for the front gear doors, they worked out well.



Happy flying, Terry.

OK, I'm bummed out! I went out today to run some errands with the family, then took the boy to the park for some fun and when we got home I heard a pair of WW2 Radials in the distance. Now I know there is a WW2 Weekend at a local airport usually the second week of June, but thought I would check the website to see. Well it turns out the airshow is this weekend and the thing that bummed me out is the B-29 FiFi is there this year and I have to work Sunday, so I won't be able to see this rare Multi-Engine Beauty!! CRAP!!!!!!!
http://www.maam.org/

Here's another rare aircraft they have on display during the Airshow which is being restored to flying condition. I saw a documentary on the recovery of this plane and also saw the crates it was stored in several years ago at the Museum. Enjoy...and thanks for listening.

Well it finally happened, I maidened the 310 tonight.
We have our annual Open House this Sat and any demo flights, the Plane must have flown
previous. So out I went tonight What a sight and Sound it was fantastic.
Required 2 clicks of up trim nothing else. What a relief it is done.
I know it has taken a while since I posted it was ready, but had some family
matters to deal with and had been stressed out. So doing a maiden
was not a good idea at the time. Sorry did not get video on this one, but will have some on Sat.
and will post it. Anyway the one thing it needs is retracts. Next on the priority List.
Thanks to all for the Help here on the Nosen 310 Club.
Cliff

Yes she does look sweet! I can't wait to see some video, Just might give me some more motivation.
I'm just about finished with my Morrisey Bravo and all that's left to do is mount the canopy, check final fit of everything, check the C/G and run a couple tanks of fuel through it befroe maiden.
I was not going to go with retracts on the 310, but I think by the time I get back to work on it, I'll probably change my mind again. I have'nt sheeted the wing center section yet so it's not too late.

Nice!

The video guy actually did a pretty good job. I've seen worse on YouTube.

Your 310 looked tail heavy in the air after take off. Being a 310 builder I know you had the CG right so what was happing in the air?

Landing looked good.

Are the fuel tanks centered on the CG or aft of it?

Actually it was very Hot and humid, So motors were not pulling full rpm's
I had to pull it up to avoid the tree line, but looking at the video I had more room
then I though. I might up the motor to G38"s for more power. This weigh's in at 32Lbs
Fuel tanks are foward of the CG right behind the motors. And yes the Cg is close a
tad nose down when balanced. Cliff

I've been doing alot of flying myself trying to enjoy the fruits of my labor. Unfortunately I had a crash last Friday so I've been doing some repairs to the damaged aircraft when I'm NOT flying.
I can't wait to get back to my 310, I just don't want to be tied down in the shop with all this nice weather going on outside. Flew my twin on Fathers Day and WOW she was running good!

Yep not much going on in the shop's at this time of year, to nice to stay indoors
while the sun is shinning and the winds are soft and light. Glad to see your efforts
rewarded with a great maiden.


Now for some more serious stuff, it is with great regret that I am selling my G & L
NIB fiberglass fuselage with the tip tanks and engine nacelles. With the economy in
a downward spiral I am finding it harder to spend what I have been spending from the
monthly budget on my modelling activities. So if any one in the club is interested
send me an e-mail and we will do some haggling to get it to a new home.


This isn't saying that I am totally abandoning building another Nosen Cessna 310, it's
just not practical at this time to continue gathering materials and accessories for an
airplane that might just not happen. The club will continue as it has in the past and I
will make every effort to make it to continue to grow in the future. It was and is my love
for this aircraft that keeps the passion going.


Bill D.

gentlemen:::

I have been reserching engines for this 310. there are alot of choices as we know. the problem I see on this one is I will have to make a firewall mod. to acommadate any engine. This is built to planes and there doesen't seem to alot of clearance from firewall to cowling. I sure don't want the prop hub sticking out 1 1/2 to 2 in. infront of the cowl, so the firewall will have to be setback. I know this bird needs something is the 30cc range. i have been looking at the dle 30 and the mvvs 35 gas and also the moki (mark)g180 gas. the last two could be mounted sideways to fit inside the cowl. I can make the exhaust fit inside the cowl also. So it would be a clean install. I know it's flying time and yes I am flying alot, but I can't help thinking about the 310 and brain storming the whats and hows and the when and the fun of putting it together and flying it. All my other biids are flying great and it's time to start this project. any help would be great.

thanks guys

Marty
