RE: Composite-Arf 33% Gee Bee R2 - First Flight - Pics - Videos - L@@K

Hannes,

Is there any chance that you will offer the corrected cowls for sale? Even if you do not sand and paint them I would like to buy one.

Thanks,

Thanks for the post, I will be using a 3W 157 CS in mine too. What brand are the mufflers you are using? I see your Mulligan in your picture, what size motor are you using?

Thanks,

Mike

You are both right. I used to fly UAVs that were powered by modified 3W-28cc engines. Our engines were rear mounted in a pusher config. We used a velocity stack and the intake was concealed inside...

Thanks Rich, I am just trying to understand what you used as a datum point for Zero, the center of the leading edge at the wing root? Also on your video I heard someone say that you have made some...

Wow! Downwind and Deadstick! Amazing recovery!! When you mention the 6.5 degrees of dihedral what is the zero ref. point? Most modelers seem to use inches under the wingtip. I want to get this right...

RE: NEW Top Flight P-40??? 1/5 scale

Taygher,

I am going to get the Spitfire kit next I hope it is better than the Mustang. Where are you located in Sweden? I was a member of the club in Lulea for 2 years while I lived in Finland.
