Who ever wants a set you can email jackiesacks.com Ask Jacqui to use the template that she used for RONS A10. she has the template I sent her.. I just had bags for my wings made. Gonzalo sent a template for the vertical stabs so she has the template for those as well.
They are available in different colors and she offers embroidery on them if you desire.

What about plane covers...... I need a couple for my jets



http://www.planewrappers.com/Gallery only do it for aerobatic planes

Maybe Anton should offer that as an option..... it would be great for us that like to keep our jets away from the sun and dust.

the Likai's LG (3kg) with main wheel 150mm too strong for EDF , bcause the weight 23 kg and no fuel, so never changed the weight , i think change to small LG with 100mm whels will can reduce the 1.5kg weight more,

I congratulate Skymaster for replacing my A10 FOC as promised, I also congratulate them on their revised packing method resulting in zero damage, (they pack polythene bags around the components and then pump them up with expanding foam) well done.

More to follow as the recommissioning progresses.

Video of the A10 maiden, acknowledgements to Colin for the
camera work on a bitterly cold day.

To Mark for his LMA airframe scrutiny and flight certification.

Also kudos to Skymaster jets for doing what they said they would do
in replacing the model after the unfortunate incident with the tail plane.

Thanks also to Morne of M&N Models for seeing through the process.

Great Maiden flight!
What is your retract set-up?
I like how slow they operate.

Thanks for the video!

Happy New Year!

Appreciate the compliments guys, happy new year to you as well.

Joe, the landing gear is my own hydraulic conversion of the Likai OE gear. I have been using this system for some time now on numerous of my recent models, I have reached the point where it is both realistic and reliable.

The conversion is based on the UMS (India) hydraulic landing gears system. The pump gears have been replaced, both brass originally, to driving gear steel and driven gear brass, this has less wear potential.
The other mod is the ECU is discarded and an accumulator is introduced, this takes the form of an old retract cylinder with a spring fitted to the air side, the rod operates a micro switch to switch the pump on and off. The value of the spring determines the operating pressure……..simple.
