Jerry's Big Boy Plans

I got my plan set from a modeler either on RCU or RC Groups (can't remember). He sent a file to me that I copied onto a thumb drive then had my local printer make a working copy. I have just moved,...

Horizon Hobbies

I don't know where to post this, but. . . . I visited my LHS today and found out that he is being shut out from ordering from Horizon Hobbies. It seems that he hadn't ordered their minimum of $2500...

RE: Jerry's Little Boy info

OzMo, I have been flying my Little Boy for two years or more now. I have a Saito .72 up front and it is a dream to fly. When you initially set up the CG, you might think it a little too far to the...

RE: R/C Airplanes are not toys...

Last week my wife and I were sitting at dinner with another couple and the woman asked me about my "toy" airplanes. I started counting down from ten, then when I could speak I told her what goes...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Having a little trouble here. I have a new Saito .72 that I'm having trouble breaking in. I've run around 40 ounces of fuel through it, mounted on a stand, but it still won't hold an idle. I've...

RE: GAS Saito

w8ye, as a Moderator, I would hope that you would have had a less flippant reply to my question. Perhaps you didn't read my post that said "I am building . . ."; note it didn't say I was thinking of...

RE: GAS Saito

I'm building a 1/12th Wingspan B17 and am looking for engines. I would rather go with gasoline for the better usage of fuel, since I'm limited to 10 ounce fuel tanks. I have been thinking of Saito...

RE: Upgrading Transmitter...looking for feedback

Rich, you bring up an excellent point, that of having one (or more) channels that are not necessarily proportional. I really appreciate all of the inputs here, and cannot without a major drive go to...

RE: Upgrading Transmitter...looking for feedback

Thanks for your reply. I think you pretty much answered what I thought the 8FG does: it has 8 separate TX controls, but no more. So if I need a channel 9 and/or channel 10 function separately...

RE: Upgrading Transmitter...looking for feedback

I too am looking to upgrade this fall/winter. I like the Futaba 8 with its ability to upgrade to 14 channels, but with only 8 channels on the transmitter, how would that help me? My large scale gas...

RE: Proctor Mini Anti-Bipe (with mods) Build Thread

Steve, superb video, sound track, and of course, superb flying. Nothing like a Jenny in the air. Thanks for a great build and congratulations on a winner. Lee

RE: Antique R/C

Floyd, good to hear about some of the "old times" with Bob Dunham. When I was in High School (Huntington Park High) in the 50's, I would go to Bob's hobby shop on Atlantic (I think?) and enjoyed...

RE: Futaba 8FG goes to 14 Channels!!

I'll be looking for a new system this year, and I like what Futaba has to offer re the "frequency agile" concept that they call FASST. Although I need quite a few extra channels for scale features,...

RE: Futaba 8FG goes to 14 Channels!!

Doug and Howard, thanks for the quick responses. Clearly, from what you have both said, the 12Z is a better solution for me. One of this year's projects is to build a Don Smith Me110, so the...

RE: Futaba 8FG goes to 14 Channels!!

This all sounds good, but in my search to buy a new system this year, it seems like the 10, 12FG, and 12Z are looking more and more alike. Because I enjoy scale, I want the additional capabilities...

RE: 96 inch Brian Taylor Bf 110

Great flight on the 110. No question about the quality of the OS engines, and those two synch'd 4-strokes sound just right. I can't see going with electric because it just wouldn't sound right to...

I have a PCK kit of this one, and retracts. I was thinking of Saito 1.10s, and three fuel tanks. The primary tank located on the cg in the fuselage, feeding two smaller tanks, one in each nacelle. ...

Hi pacorro. I built one a few years back and it turned out to be a beautiful aircraft. As usual, I used spruce spars for the wing and aircraft ply instead of lite ply, and covered it in pre-colored...
