kyosho gee bee arf
just got it yesterday. WOW what a great arf. first class quality. i have one question for anyone who has put this thing together. on page six in the manual, it states to "remove wheel pants guide before flying". what exactly does this refer to. what is the "wheel pants guide". anyone looking for a gee bee ought to look at this one.

RE: kyosho gee bee arf
I think the wheel pants guide is the landing gear rear fairing. You might want to check out this link: [link]http://www.kyosho.com/reviews/kyoa1058-man.html[/link]
The author speaks about the rear fairing. |
RE: kyosho gee bee arf
I leave all the fairing in place for flight with zero problems. I wonder if this is a translation problem. There are several other places in the manual were the english is not clear.

RE: kyosho gee bee arf
thanks for the replys. the wheel pants guide is the rear fairing. i was thinking of using a o.s. 61 on this, what do you all think. i fly off of asphalt.

RE: kyosho gee bee arf
I got mine 2 years ago when they first came out. I have still yet to put it together but I may get around to it this spring. I agree, it's a beauty even in the box. Top notch quality all the way.
good luck with yours, Jeff |
RE: kyosho gee bee arf
That should be a good combo. I run a Saito .72 in mine. Ashphalt or other hard surface is the only place to fly these things. There is a weak point on these it's the landing gear wire. It's to soft and flexible. To fast of a landing and it will flex enough for the pants to dig in.

RE: kyosho gee bee arf
Iv'e read that the landing gear block ,come loose ,you can beef them up by by going threw the top of the wing,the fuse will cover the spot you expose....I had a OS70FS in mine ,it flew ok ,Mine bit the dust, on landing I had a tip stall that I didn't have have the speed or time to recover[:o]...I would balance it VERY carefully....Good Luck ....JW

RE: kyosho gee bee arf
The blocks arn't the problem on mine. The wire is just to flexable.
