QQ 69" - is it good to go now?

I'm very interested in this plane and read through some of the posts. There were some issues with the control horns, and also with the landing gear. I would like to buy this plane but would...

New 86" DA standoff question

Rezagh, I noticed on your web site where you describe the changes for the new 86" Yak that it lists a longer engine box which will require only 1 and 1/4" standoffs for the DA 50. I assume then that...

RE: why do rings stick with Amsoil 64:1?

Thanks everyone for your replies. Sounds like that while 64:1 Amsoil is unnecessary in our RC applications, it probably does no harm. Interesting that DA is adamant about not using a ratio lower than...

RE: 180 oz-in servos for 85" Yak?

I have been flying my 85" for about 6 months now and I have 5945's on aileron and elevator, and a 5955 on the rudder. I have had no problems at all with these servos. I do mainly 3D so they get a...

Are there any plans for a heli tail servo?

I love Hitec servos and use them on everything except the tail on my helicopters. I know that some heli guys have used 6965 or 5925 servos on the tail, but my experience is that they burn out easily...

RE: Lawn Boy Ashless

Interesting question. I think it would be difficult to measure unburned oil in such a way as to apply to all conditions. 32:1 is the recommended ratio for lawnboy ashless and I'm sure includes some...

RE: Lawn Boy Ashless

Geistware: I was wondering the same thing, i.e. if continued use of lawnboy ashless at 32:1 would be a problem. I decided to try it. After 2 seasons of lawnboy at 32:1 on 3 different DA 50's I see no...

Hey Tom, the Yak 54 sounds great, do you have any pictures of the prototype? If not can you post a sketch of the color scheme?

What is the wing area?

Thanks

RE: HITEC 8 CHAN DUAL CONV (SUPER SLIM)

Hey Mike, I just found out the same thing as the original poster, the super slim appears to be discontinued. It is no longer listed on their sige. Can you verify? That would be a shame, the size and...

RE: Nylon Landing Gear Bolts???

RE: DA50-Won't get rich enough at full throttle

RE: Oil Test Summary by rc bugman

FWIW my Son sent in his DA 100 for a year end checkup and they found stuck rings. He was using Amsoil at 100:1 as per their recommendation, after breaking in with Lawnboy. He is mainly a 3D flier,...

RE: High oil content - carbon formation - results from test 1-3

Looks like the Pennzoil air cooled did pretty well overall. Maybe there is too much emphasis on synthetic oils and the petroleum based oils are almost as good. Since many of us break in with...

RE: 35% 1x8611 on rudder - Who's Happy??? Not???

OK, I'm not an engineer but seems like one concept is being overlooked, leverage. The further the control horn is from the surface, the more the force is being multiplied at the rudder surface. So...

RE: Sneek peek at new round fuse plane

I like it Tom, a very clean look.

Will the bottom of the wing be a checker board pattern like the rudder?

What engine are you planning to use for the prototype?

I am definitely...

RE: Sneek peek at new round fuse plane

I really like it, should be another winner from Wild Hare.

What is the wing area? Probably too early but any idea on AUW with a 50cc engine, like the DA?

Personally I'm happy that you are...

Hi guys, thanks for the replies. Let me try to answer those points.

RE: Hitec 5955 problems

Michael: one more followup - before I sent them in I measured the amount of resistance it took to cause jitter. I found that around 80 ozs was the point at which the servo would jitter, and this...
