RE: New 81" P-47 ARF coming from Hangar 9
Guys
In regard to the set screw / clamping of the undercarriage leg, I drilled right through the block & leg. then tapped the far side of the block from the side from which the screw is fitted. The head of the screw is recessed into the block with a larger drill. This screw runs from front to back of the unit (hence the need to recess the screw to not foul retract action ). For my leg to rotate the 6-32 screw would have to break!!!!
I set it with just a little toe-in, measured just by eye. Operating off grass this does not pose any problems.
Logged another 3 flights on Sunday bringing total to 8. Now doing some really nice scale take-offs using just over 1/2 throttle on the Moki 1.8, cruising at about 1/3 throttle, only feeding in more power for loops, cuban 8's etc.
Cheers
