I've got a Top Flite B-25 that's ready to run. Unfortunately I just don't have the time to fly it and it's a shame to just let it sit when someone could be enjoying it. I'll attach some pictures...

I don't want to invite anymore negativity from Mr. Fine but I will say that Chris' brother was NOT the problem. Gentlemen turned Conman is truly the best way to describe it.

He was very helpful in the beginning, which is why I purchased 2 boats and LOTS of spare parts. But when I...

Lots of people have. I have one with an OS 160fx nitro engine and one with a DLE-30. The DLE-30 has less power but it's still plenty of power for this plane. If I did it again, I would even think...

Thanks for the tip. I purchased the plane for my Saito 180, but decided to install the DLE-30 after reading the last 20 pages or so on this thread. Now I'm just waiting on the big brown airplane...

I have a saito 180 converted to gas power. The saito 180 is 0.7pounds (260g) more than the saito 125. The ignition module is probably 0.2-0.3 pounds if I use an IBEC. That should put me at about...

I noticed my 33gx had less power than a DLE-30. I was suppose to be spinning an 18x8 - 18x10 at around 8.5k minimum. I was actually getting closer to 6-7k if I remember correctly. In a three blade...

Does anyone have any rpm numbers to share for their 33gx? My engine is running reliably, but I'm taching 6050rpms with a 17x10x3 biela and 7400 rpm with an 18x8 Xoar. These numbers are from the...

RE: Top Flite B-25 ARF (Tecnical, tips, suggestions)

Do you have a switch that turns the Gyro on and off or do you just leave it on all the time? I read several posts from 2007 when people were really into using Gyro's but the consensus later changed...

RE: Top Flite B-25 ARF (Tecnical, tips, suggestions)

Does anyone know of a good fuel proof paint for the two different colors on the B-25? I picked up Model Master Olive Drab (FS34087) and it's way to green. I need to touch up a few spots.

RE: Top Flite B-25 ARF (Tecnical, tips, suggestions)

Just curious, but why dle-20s? If you want gas, why not go saito 91 gas or something similar? The plane was designed for an os 70fs and a dle is 1.20...that's a big jump! I think os 70 engines...

Hitech servos are pretty much the only servos I use... and I have never used an amplifier. As long as you're using quality connectors you will be fine... but avoid ever using an amplifier with those...

I did not use soldering paste or flux which is probably my problem. The solder I used had flux built into the solder itself, but I usually prefer to use extra flux when making...

Great explanation and fairly accurate when dealing with nickel metal hydride and nickel cadmium. Unfortunately, it does not take the connectors into consideration. A typical JR connector is good...

Anyone know if a flex pipe is available for the OS 95v engine? I really don't want to cut the cowl in order to fit the stock muffler and a flex pipe seems like the perfect option.

It's actually a sea master, not a sea neptune. Following the footsteps of B-Squared, I used an OS 55 AX engine for power.
