RE: couple of newbee questions....
Hey guys thanks for the help.
I don't need to ajust the idle because the engine is dead when landing. I'm starting to think the tower hobbies "fuel proof" coating they put on the metal axles to prevent rust, is acutally acting as a lubricant. when the plane rolls it's like it has ball bearings, it just rolls, and rolls, and rolls. even when the engine is dead.
I have some backround in electric parkflyers, so I know how to land, (both of the first landings were perfect, no boucing or banging just very smooth.
Also, thanks for the prop advice. I will stock up on some plastic/nylon ones.
Just to re-cap on the first two landings (with broken props) I came in slow at idle then kill the engine just before touchdown and smoothly land. My problem lies when the plane is rolling forever I eventually ran out of runway and ran into a snow bank.
I heard about putting fuel tubing in-between the wheel collar/washer to slow down rolling, I'll try this.
