hey guess who dropped me an email today!!

"Thanks for staying in touch and yes you are right you will want to stay on me about this.


I have not had much time for anything but work lately. So far I have one wing done. I will get to the second wing and then drill for the motor. I would be lucky to have any time until this weekend. But I am pretty sure it will fit just fine, we will see.


Enjoy!!"

soo.. I will wait it out and see what mike comes up with.

I'm trying to find a set of the Williams Brothers 14500 wheels as shown in this thred. It seems no one has them anywhere. Any suggestions? I'm assembling one for a customer that I just glassed and detailing now. He will be using the Hacker Q80 for power.

Have you tried a google or Amazon search?

if you still can't find them after all that, if you've already done it, I would get the Sierra wheels.

I think I'm about to pull the trigger on one of these. Any pointers with the build? Thanks!

On a Warbird, I'd think you'd be much happier with a twin over a single cylinder, for the higher torque....

For cooling, I cut a couple small slots in the bottom of the cowl - which I really didn't need. I have been running this same setup on a P-40 for over a year with no airflow over the motor and quite a bit on the ESC. The motor never gets over 100 degrees and the ESC stays at about 85. My first flight on the FW190, the motor came down at 87 degrees and the ESC was 80 - the outside temp was 75.

Hi, everybody! Here and me the pilot came. Figure very simple. By the size I approached for 100 percent! I wait, I won't wait until to us the spring comes. Very much already there is a wish to lift the plane in the sky!

If you're putting in a full cockpit it's tough to beat the Best Pilots Gunther Rall. You can even get your own face put on the Gunther body if you so desire.

"Spring"..?

We're looking at Summer Pt2 coming up in the next week or so - temps soaring into the 30's+.

Aircond will probably get a workout. Hopefully no bloody bushfires but... (fingers crossed)
