RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build

I just spent the day putting old Vortac bomb drop mechanisms into my wing and getting the Lado Tech gear in the wings. This is a tedious part of the build to get right. Thanks Rotccapt for all the...

RE: TRex 500 or TRex 600?

I've been flying the 500 for about a week now. It's a great upgrade for me. My prior heli was a Blade CP. What a treat to fly this machine. I'm only doing basic stuff like hovers and basic...

RE: How are you going 2.4?

I put my money into Xtremelink. I like the technology the best. I bought both JR and Futaba modules, since I'm converting a 9303 and a pair of 7UAFS systems. So far the Xtremelinks have been...

9303 Availability without Module

I'm interested in getting a 9303 very soon ( as soon as next week if I could) but I'd like to get it without a module since I want to go 2.4 GHz.

When will the 9303 Air TX be available? Can...

RE: Great Planes Super Aeromaster conversion to electric

Will,

Any update on the Aeromaster conversion? I just won the same kit at my RC Club raffle.

I think it's an excellent candidate for conversion. At 7 lbs unbuilt, you are looking at...

RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build

Hi Gents.

Yes it was a Top Flite .60 kit. It's the same version available now. Top Flite used to offer the Drop Tanks. They are scale. I had added working bomb mechanisms to the plane. ...

RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build

Ok. Since I've been lurking here, I thought I would share my P-51 (before the crash). This was build and flown in the 1995 time frame. It had a ST-90 (the source of the crash) and CJM retracts. I...

RE: 1/7 P-51 tailwheels - CJM or Robart?

The CJM are solid retracts. The main issue with them is that they are a bit heavier and more modifications are required to get them to fit. Overall, I see them as the better retract.

Nice job so far. I remember fitting in mine long ago. I spent a lot of time on this step and had to remove an alarming amount of material like you!

RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build

I've taken a good look at the RCV motors too. They are high torque and very good for a warbird. The one thing I know is that they tend to be light and you need to reinforce the firewall. If you go...

RE: Top Flite 1/7 P-51 Build

(1) My CJM retracts were very solid. My major complaint with them were that they were too stiff causing too much stress to be transferred to the wings. I did have a machinist friend of mine do a...

RE: Rear bearing won't come off Crackshaft

If I have any problem above and beyond the actual engine, I would guess it's the centerline alignment. The plane is a Great Planes Super Sportster 40 that I built back in 1993 or 1994. It always...

RE: Fliton Extra 330 Freestyle Who's Got One?
