This was a fun build and it is a great flying plane. Even managed to catch a thermal in 20 degree weather.

RE: Spad Voodoo

I made it out of 1/4" x 1" aluminum at first and that failed horribly. I found some 1/2" X 1 1/2" at Southerlands and that has worked really well.

Problem with Corona RP6D1 Synthesized RX

I am using it with a Futaba 6XAs
I had some issues getting it to even lock to my transmitter. Then when it did lock, it had lots of glitches. Found that if I pegged channels 5 and 6 all the way...

RE: RAF SE5 Maiden Flight

Yeah, my 12V starter doesn't have enough grunt to spin it and my cordless drill dosn't spin fast enough to get the magneto to spark. Besides, using a pull cord has the advantage of keeping me behind...

RAF SE5 Maiden Flight

Once I got the speed up and the plane trimmed out she flew pretty well. My scratch built wheels didn't hold up though. No damage, just have to get something stronger for my spokes.

RE: offical rc10 Aluminum tub chassis thread

I just dropped a Trinity Cobalt 2 9 turn double in my RC10T. I had to change the pinion from 18 teeth to 15 teeth to slow it down and give it a little more torque. But she is still pretty fast. Here...

I had a chance to get into a larger open space than my living room and got the belt into a full hover rather than just barely off the ground. It read a peak of...

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........

I have a watt meter. I can measure exactly what my draw is. My question was to find out what is "normal" to make sure I don't have anything too tight that is causing an extra load. Is 8.6A normal?

RE: ........."BELT-CP THREAD"........
