RE: radios and servos and kadets .. oh my...
I guess the buying part never ends in this hobby. I've got the ARF and the radio/servos on the way. Now, on to the motor. I've ordered the O.S. .61 FX with muffler. Ok, from what I am reading I still need motor mounts, spinner, etc. It's the etc. part that's killing me. Can someone list the exact parts needed to install this engine on the Sig Kadet Senior ARF? I'm talking mounts, screws, nuts, bolts, fuel line and filter, prop, spinner and anything else you can think of. Everything needed to make it fly. Clunk? What is a clunk....... ummmm.. ok, so that is a clunk. Do I really need a clunk? My first car was a clunker, does that count?
Thanks Jim. I was out there today for a little while. It was a bit too windy, but a couple of brave souls went up anyway. Two guys took a hike over to the deadly tree line and retrieved the wing from someones Sig that was left a while back. Seems they already had the rest of the plane, and just needed a longer stick to get the wing down. The problem I have at the field is I need a recorder to get all the information I'm receiving there. I go on sensory overload with all the input. I'll be out of town all next week, so this week I'll be at the field every day after work, gleaning info from the wise old timers.
This hobby reminds me of something I heard way back when I was farming. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of parts"
