ORIGINAL: Kane C140

how many washers would it need
depends on how thick the washers are

ive added some washers to my C50, a bit more right thrust, and a bit of up, hopefully that will cure the loads of elevator in the harrier problem as dave said.........

but im saying this in the wrong forum[:-]

I put a degree of up thrust in two or three weeks ago, but have not flown yet to try it. Should fly tomorrow, will see how it goes.

So Kane, what do you know about Norman? Is he the chap you use to build your models?

But he is great he takes his time and makes a job worth while.He is cheap aswell and he can also service engines including YS engine , he has serviced to YS engines one is currently waiting on parts delivered here and the other is in my Capiche 140ex and its great.

Luke was stunning once again, I really lliked the rolling elevator into harrier (tail about six inches from the strip) then up into a torque roll, about 10 feet up.

The other manouver I like is a low inverted pass, inverted wall, then over the top into a harrier. Looks fantastic.

Oh, flew mine twice, starting to get used to the plane. The upthrust did seem to improve things a bit, but the main provlem is my ability. Hopefully the 140 will be here for next weekend .

Awesome stuff Luke.. perfect it, then fly the whole display a little lower, then you'll have 'em beat!! (you already fly at 0 mistakes high, so losing a few more feet won't matter!!)

I just managed to do rolling circles of 4 point rolls...now to get it a little more precise....

Keep going Luke.. stunning stuff.....

Regards,

Steve

Got three from Phil Williams at Probuild. Don't know how much it worked out as im afraid. Phone and ask him but there's quite a big waiting list. Web site is down below.

Hopefully try it out this weekend.

Will do. Meant to be much smoother than 140DZ plus more torque so you can swing a bigger prop.

Other two are for my bros.
