RE: Top Flite Cessna 310 posted

Hi Mark,
Silly answer... No. I think the difference is in the temperature that the glue melts. As for removing glued parts just reheat and remove. The glue I used came from the crafts section in...

Bill, thanks for the kudos. I am sorry I didn't reply sooner. I am usually notified of any updqates to this thread, but this didn't happen. I wondered why nobody was using it. I decided to check...

I use the twin sync and also an onboard glow plug warmer. I wish I had bought the on board glo plug with the twin sync. I haven't tried it out yet.

Allen,
We always put on shoes in the winter and us rich people get to wear socks. It is in the summer when we go barefooted.

RE: Top Flite Cessna 310 posted

Well I checked the balance with the gear up and again with the gear down. I found that with an aircraft as heavy as the C310 it makes very little difference. So again I say mine balanced perfectly....

Bo,
It works fine. There is a slight misalignment of one door but I don't think it will be noticable in flight. I did not do the mains for various reasons. One being I did not think they would...

Bo,
I balanced mine today also and it came out perfectly with the retracts extended. I think I need to balance it with the retracts retracted because that is how they will be in flight. I removed...

I'm still here. I just didn't answer because I didn't have an answer for you. I checked <http://www3.omnimodels.com/cgi-bin/woi0001p?&I=ROBQ1623&P=7> and they won't have any until late Dec. too.

The wiring harness is not in the kit. It is already installed in the fuselage.

The C310 comes prewired for the lights. The nose and tail lights are already wired in and there are three more loose ends for the wings and battery input. Those are the only wires that come...

I haven't finished mine yet. I am at the point of attaching the wing to the fuselage. There is so much junk in there I don't know if it will fit. I cut out the front hatch and installed the...

The washout is in the wing. That is what makes the tanks look like they have negative incidence.

The negative incidence you...

RE: Top Flite Cessna 310 posted

Mark,
There seems to be a problem with the flaps not fitting snugly under the wing, but it disappears when the nacelle is bolted on.
