RE: Hobby King 70mm F-86 and Banana Hobby Mig15
OK, I ordered the Hobby King F-86 on the 1st and it has not shipped yet, I did however get my Mig15 from Banana Hobby after a week went by and I got on the on-line chat and asked about my order, they shipped it out next day. Not sure if you have to remind them or what, seemed kind of weird.
Anyway, I have some questions about the Mig15, so if anyone has one please help me out, I want to fly it this weekend.
CG, where is it? The instructions are not very clear and I want this thing right on the money!
I had problems with the retracts, at first they all worked but were going up and down when I hit the retract switch and would not stop until I hit the switch to lower them. At that time the left main gear disintegrated internally and stopped working. Banana Hobby said they will ship out another retract in 7 days, we will see. After playing with them for a while, all of the sudden the remaining 2 started working right.
What electric gear are a good replacement for these? Hobby King has a few sets of electric retracts, not sure if I have the room for air operated.
I touched up the paint and shot it with some Model Masters flat clear, not a great job but I think it looks great from about 10 feet away!
