RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

My first stuka had engine problems from the get go and this one started with similar problems. It just would not idle. I had my suspicions, the tank was to high and flooding it out when I reduced the...

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

Rangerman did you notice that it losses speed quickly in turns when the engine stops?

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

Ranger, I mounted mine 45 degrees below horizontal like the plans call for. That put the swinge muffler out the back of the scoop. You can also see the onboard glow, it was there for breakin. You can...

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

Bob,
The 100 will be plenty of power but will require you to modify the Engine mount (EM) to make it fit. The .60 will provide adequate power, I had a 90 on mine and the speed delta from 60% and...

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

Joe, if you took the gear out of it on a landing please read this thread from the beginning. I feel that the dihedral brace was damaged when I took the gear out of mine. It passed all the stress...

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

Bob, Its an excellent flyer. I had a .90 in mine but a .60 is more than enough. Mine flew takeoff at full throttle and that was it. I never needed the rest of the power. I feel that the main spar...

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

Oh yah, that little connection between flaps. Well I installed mine by over drilling the holes in the flaps ends. Putting a littleVaseline on the rods to keep the epoxy from sticking to it, then in...

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka

Daw, I understand how that could be gleaned form my writeup but if you weight all the evidence I think you will agree that it was not too slow. The plane was crabbing / requiring allot more rudder...

RE: Flew Great Planes Stuka
