Seems like if I look around I could find one or two more around here, plus there's the box of stripped engines waiting to be converted, tons of hobby supplies, etc.

And I SOLD 4 or 5 airplanes in the last year!

Yep, I need to make that call.... anyone got the number??

Oh yeah, I forgot the Balsa USA .90 size Taube that I've got one of those cool RCV sleeve valve engines for....

No, forget about doing away with me prematurely for the estate sale guys... My wife knows what it's all worth!!

I have too many projects for my budget at the moment, and currently the only plane I'm solo'd on sucks badly... (its' a Nexstar I screwed up a bit putting a supertigre .40 on and a couple other things, it doesnt' fly as well as it used to, stole those for my second plane), second plane is a .40 size sukhoi SU 31 I got off of ebay, fun plane but I don't have a good radio (skysport) so I can't tone it down very well, and it's having some snap roll problems even after moving the CG up pretty far, we're getting closer...

third plane is the one you guys would care about, the 85" KMP Extra 330 that I'm putting the Mac 32cc engine on, my current budget hasn't let me get all of the radio equipment yet, looking for a good deal on a 6+ channel computer radio (Futaba or Hitec preferabally), already have a Futaba R127 reciever for it, just need to gather servo's (and need to figure out what size of servo's I need, it has room for one standard size on each wing, one 1/4 scale servo hole for the rudder and two standard size holes in the tail for the elevator, any advice in this area would be greatly appreciated...). test started this engine the other day, quite exciting, I want to get it done, it should be my best flying plane, not the best power to weight ratio by far (sukhoi has a .46 FX and only weighs about 5.5 pounds) but it should fly good and be fun (not to mention basically only having a radio into it...)

I have a few engines on the bench too, a homie 25, a craftsman 32 and a lawnboy 25 (70's or 80's stihl knockoff), need to get my recently acquired metal lathe up and running, I guess I just need to realign the motor and get some bits...

NO I won't post a comment to your #2 post. No I won't. Forget the estate sale! ...................[sm=71_71.gif]

Check out the JR "Sport" line of servos. Good specs and fair price. Some of the Hitec servos are pretty fairly priced for the performance also. Better to wait and get the servos it needs than lose that nice plane....

Good luck,

I don't have the manual for the plane, so I don't even know what specs I'm looking for, I'm thinking 120ish oz/in for the aileron's and elevator, that sound about right? I'm also looking at the Bluebird servo's since they're really cheap...

Yeah, it would probably be alright with 120 or so, but more on the rudder; like 180+. Read the comments on those Bluebirds though. They have some problems not working with certain brand receivers. You want metal geared servos as well.

I do have experience with the bluebird servo's, haven't tried them on any aircraft stuff, but I liked it for the other things I've used them for, that being said, I ordered 4 of them a couple days ago and they'll soon be in the plane...

also acquired another engine, homie 30 for $3, this one might end up on a car or something, I'll have some fun with it...

I really like the Homey 30cc that I have. I ported it and did all the "tweaks", and it turns an APC 16 x 8 at over 9400 rpms!
