RE: Carl Goldberg Foam MIG 27got 2 of them

Well, it's been a while and I can't find any reference in my books and such. I've got an Evolution 46....what's the best prop size? I was once told that the higher the pitch, the faster it'll go. ...

RE: dual tank setup

I must admit, however, my plane looks somewhat ghetto with a 16oz tank velcro strapped to the top of the wing. Oh well...it's only temporary for the endurance flight.

RE: dual tank setup

Yes, it pushed the fuel uphill along a course of about 10" of line. The engine pulled fuel from the top tank. Bottom tank emptied first as it continued to keep the top tank full.

RE: dual tank setup

Well, I tried both ways. It definitely would not work drawing fuel from the bottom existing tank...fuel just gushed out of the carb, hydrostatic locking the engine and all. I reversed it to draw...

RE: dual tank setup

RE: AkroMaster CL-20

Okay, this may come as an ignorant question....I've got one of these kits, and the instructions provided have twice told me to reference the included plans. The fact is, there were no plans in this...

RE: Fox problem

RE: Mounting tuned pipe. On Little Toni ??????

RE: sticky epoxy
