RE: FLIGHT FIELD BOX QUESTION

When I first started in this hobby, I crashed a lot, and generally ended the day with all my planes damaged in some manner. I eventually worked my way up to three planes, and could stay at the field...

RE: Is an "un"-hedral elevator on a trainer a problem?

You might want to consider dual wires. If you just use one, it may "war" the wing, change the incidence, or cause a lifing surface.

As for the Chuckles, just tell them your next plane is going...

RE: Mythbusters Tonight 9pm!

That is an interesting show, but who is to say what is a Myth, and what is not? Just because they can't find a one-armed man that lost his hook down at lover's lane, doesn't mean it didn't happen! ...

RE: Stuka siren noise

Dr. Pepper,

I hope the boys at AMA didn't hear you say that :-).

Unfortunately, I think what you are looking for wouldn't really work, due to the scale factor. The sirens and the horns...

Nope! The "Air Mail" boxes are mounted considerably higher :-). Seriously, a guy in town has one, and it is about 6 ft higher than the normal postman's box. I can't help...

RE: RC flying will last forever

That's probably true, there is also a possibility that without AMA, it may have been illegal by now. There would probably be at least some RC Fliers at some level. But I don't believe the pilots,...

RE: RC flying will last forever

IN the case of the AMA, they made so much money (i.e., profit) that they had to spend millions on the field in Muncie in order to retain their "non-profit" status. That doesn't justify an increase...

RE: <span class=

I have the Squadron/Signals P-51 book. It has an artist conception to the "Doll" on the front--in color--and another in the book (pg. 42) that is B&W. The nose on this one appears to be divided in...

Since the oil film is a little thicker than 1/2 thousands, I think change in size, due to heat, is much more than a millionth of an inch. I don't have my inside micrometers, so it is a little hard...

RE: 4*60 engine mounting question

I spaced mine so the prop was about a 1/4 to a 1/2" clearance in front of the fuse. If you plan to use the engine location to balance your plane, be sure your radio is installed FIRST! It is best...
