Super Mario,

No, I don't have those but I could possible get them for you when my new one comes in.

I had an ASM C-130 - a piece of junk it was; paper thin plastic; just a pile of junk. Is that what you have? If not, who makes that one?

Saul,

I checked out the fiberglass place, their 130 is a kit; I hate kits...but thank you, Sir.

Super Mario,

Wow, that's one sweet mother; has its own room in the da house - too funny.

Mr. DJ

The problem is there aren't any manufactures out there currently making a large scale C-130 that is an ARF other than ASM.

Sounds like a it could be new project for Tommy..........

I just make my wing bags from a double reflective foil insulation from lowes , I cover 2 wing , elevator , rudder, and wing strus , I pay $40.00 us dollar for the insulation and $3.00 for duck tape total $43.00 us and I am very happy with the final result because I save houndres of dollar , if I decide to order from a wing bag company it going to cost me a fortune just because the side of my wing plus the fin and elevator , now I have everything cover including the wing strus , total time 2 hours of course with my wife help, the insolation that i used was 4"x 25"

It looks like they will laugh at anything, Super Mario

Those wing bags look great and easy to build; I will do the same.

My, I mean, your bird is lookin' mighty fine; mighty fine.

Your are so right, Super Mario,

Since you bought my baby, I've made 15 separate orders with Tower Hobbies to the tune of over $5K (eleven 2.4 7 chn receivers, 25 servos, engines, planes, etc), another $650 with Robart for my DC 3 retracts, another $200 for the 3-bladed DC 3 props and hubs.

I just decided that I'm buying 6 more turbines and calling it quits:

F-86
T-33
F-9F
A-10
Draken
SR-71

Those will go with my current:

F-4
F-14 ($18K invested)(you can figer out the rest on your own)
F-15
F-16
F-18

And my future props of:

Cessna 182 Turbo Prop (actually a turbine so it should be listed above)
DC3
C-130 (from Tommy, he will build anything for anybody if you supply him the specs, photos, etc)

Those three props and I'm calling it quits and they go with my current props of:

Sonic
Shrike
Stick
Sportster
Gee Bee Y
Extra 330
Stearman Bi-Plane

I wish I had never gotten into this freakin' hobby while I was stationed in Japan in 1985. I'm so freakin sick of it, but I love it

Hey DJ.

Yes, now I understand why you wait so long for your Mercedes Sprinter.
They have not made anyone who is big enough for you yet. What about a truck ..........................
Yes, Tommy makes what you want.
I would like a Cessna 421 27% with Turbo Prop.
An Airbus 330-300 with two turbines. We'll see.

Regards. Johnny.

Johnny,

This will help: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_46...tm.htm#4702522

http://buzzkillingsworth.webs.com/ce...5turboprop.htm

http://www.hostetlersplans.com/

http://www.hostetlersplans.com/cessna421c.html

My suggestion would be to buy the plans & send them to Tommy so he can build you a composite version.

Good Luck. :-)

Hi Mario, Saul and Mr DJ,

Looking forward to seeing your first flight Mario. Just be sure you have the Centre of Gravity as per the instruction manual as previously posted by Saul aka "Slevin".

I too have wing bags for my big Cessna although I hate to admit I had these sewn professionally by a personal friend of mine. The material is very hard wearing and is blue in color. I will take some photos so you can all see.

I have HD video footage of my cessna only thing is youtube don't like the format.

Wishing you well for your maiden flight Mario!

Cheers
Steve

Hey Johnny, Steve

Super Mario, if she's a bit nose heavy, she will fly like the bird she is - just land her with flaps. But you know all this; your's a master flyer.

I like the pin stripe you put on the wheel pants and you covered or painted the wing tips red - you da Man.

Steve, I place all my video on Veimo or Viemo - something like that. I have an account with them @ $59 a year which allows uploads of 5 Gigs a week. The free account isn't nearly as much. The only thing about V verses Youtube is everybody and their brother searches YT, so if you want the world to see your whatever, YT is the way, but if that don't matter, then go with V.
