Default Interesting Find - HAL 2100 Autopilot


Here an interesting find I forgot about, when digging through my old r/c stuff . . . a HAL 2100 Autopilot, with Ripmax channel control, from when I lived in England.

Pal of mine had one of those some years ago. We could never get it to work so we disconnected everything and flew the model normally.

Given how well the HAL 9000 worked, I guess that's not too surprising!

was it working? what do you want for it? do you have paypal?
anyone else have one?

i've turfed my F-86 several times and the last time it sucked up a piece of clay dirt and shot a plume of dust 10 feet in the air!
gutted the turbine and pooched the motor too. punched in the mouth so bad i trimmed it off and have modified a large yogurt
container to make a new nose to distribute the shock across more of the front end a'la crash bumper. gonna place a piece of
custom-fit black plastic canvas (5 pitch per inch) as an air duct guard to keep out the big stuff and the wheat stubble.
looks a little more like a SUPER SABRE now.
and i got an EDF cause i thought i'd just break props off the corsair!
too windy where i live, not many good flying days, when i get a slight gust i usually loose control.
i'm ordering a couple gyros, and bidding on a hal2100 now, but i'm getting a GWS ME-262 and really dont want to ground it.
the ME-262 is the only thing more cool than the F-86 in my opinion, and the thing that gets me is i actually have more money in the f-86!
since they dont make an avro arrow.
im happy with the F-86 as a trainer/ rough weather flyer. i use a keychain spycam and have great shots of the ground jumping up to hit me!
anyone try to modify a ww2 f4-u4 corsair, gut(hollow) the fuselauge, open the ass end and mount an edf in the nose cowl instead of a prop? something i might do.
