RE: Hangar 9 Twist 3D Part II - Thread Continuation

I agree, color would have not been my first choice. Liked the origional colors better. The price was right though, down to $119 at Horizon. Dirt cheep if you ask me. Well I'm going to put it...

RE: Programing Aleirons as Flaps

Not sure I understand what you want to do. Sounds like you currently have a plane with flaps and ailerons, and you are trying to get the flaps to act as ailerons with the flaps retracted? If this is...

RE: Air Bubbles between High needle and carb.

Thanks Jan; After some more reading on this forum, I understand the operation of these things. What made me think otherwise is an old tank from a Twist. The line from the tank to the clunk was very...

RE: Air Bubbles between High needle and carb.

I agree with all that......however my small tank does not have enough room for the clunk to reverse itself and go where gravity wants. If I could find a more flexible fuel tubing to allow this it...

RE: GP performance series Extra 300sp Flutter
