RE: LETS SAVE SIG BEFORE THEY GET SWALLOWED BY THE BIG TWO!!!

SIG kits are the best. You can trust their quality and depend on clear instructions. The Somethin' Extra is my favorite - easy build and outstanding in the air!

RE: Pre-flight and log book

Do you have a separate log book for each model? Are you using pc software to keep the log or is it handwritten? I've been wanting to do the same thing; i.e., keep a record of what I've done on the...

RE: Don Muddiman Flying Machine

Dave, I know you were looking for ideas on trim scheme. Let me recommend that there be a lot of distinction between the top and bottom of the plane. My trim scheme is too busy and the plane becomes...

RE: Don Muddiman Flying Machine

The Flying Machine  took it's maiden flight this past Friday.  The grass was a little tall on our field so a straight taxi out to the center of the field was challenging.  Under full power for the...

RE: Don Muddiman Flying Machine

I have not flown the Flying Machine yet. I still need to finish the servo linkage for the throttle and install the battery. I'm using an OS 46 AX with a 10x6 prop. I also changed the aileron to...

RE: Don Muddiman Flying Machine

Hi Dave,

I was looking for an "old school" sport plane for a first-time scratch build and I ran across Don's thread. I didn't see this thread or I might have waited for the ARF version. As it...

RE: Flying Machine Video

Dave, the prototype looks great. Is your wing built up balsa or sheeted foam? What do you think the weight of the ARF will be?

RE: JR radio problem, Horizon's 'help'

Pete, thanks for the great advice. I tried my JR cyrstal in an Airtronics RX for a plane I purchased on EBAY, and you're right, it won't pass a range check. I thought I had a bad RX - lucky for me...

RE: GMS Engine Tuning Problem

I agree with Turk1. Any slop in the carb barrel, no matter how slight, causes irratic behavior for the GMS 47. The set screw design does not allow a close enough fit to prevent the carb barrel from...

RE: GMS Engine Tuning Problem

JDW: I've found that the idle setting is, as you say, very sensitive. But for my engine, getting the settings right was not possible. Prior to drilling out the fuel intake in the carb body, I had...
