Capiche 50
#101
On your cub are you using the foam wings or the built up ones?
Also are you using Ailerons or wing warping?
I noticed that PRO 3D seems very reluctant to give out any important information on his Junior 60 such as the covering material he is using.I wandered if it was tissue and epoxy or a more modern material like nylon.
Also on the throttle pipes where does the Bowden cable connect to?

PS. Test flight of the Artist was a disater, those dayglo Ripmax tanks are S!**
the nipples fall off (OHHHHHHH MATRON!!!) :spinnyeye

Archie, I know what you need. How about a competition for all us guys to get a free Capiche? If you say yes, PM me your address for your perfectly legit Brown envelope.

Forgot to say....There was a good competition where you (Archie) pics a no. between 0-5000, and people have to post their guesses. (only one guess). The mods then look for the matching no, and whoever gets it, wins.

doesnt really promote the capiche tho does it
just one lucky bugger gets a plane.
i think a Sandown raffle would be fair enough, also every newsletter subscriber would have a chance to buy a ticket too.
it's not to send Capiches Robert, its so he knows where the cheeky buggers are and not to post there lol

Darn....If its publicity you want, I think a competition at RCM&E/RCMW would be the best, and maybe a raffle at sandowne, cause that would bring in alot of money.

can you email to me please, not PM - dont like that system... I manage my data by email in one place. Else I will loose it
thanks
PS - Re your spinner suggestion. I could organise it but first you need a turned aluminium spinner - like the tru turn.
I can get these for you if needs be but they aint cheap.
The one on the front of Malcs Capiche is a tru turn I got for him and it was then annodised red, and he polished it up... well sexy...

If you make alot of money from a raffle, maybe you could use some of it for a competition in the mags, then you would get tons of publicity. Remember how much publicity the Xtra Wot got from the comps?

Archie,
What are the dimensions to this plane. I see all kinds of info about engines, weight, servos, etc. But not a simple wingspan or length on the website. Could you please inform?
Thanks,
Matt
