RE: Bvm Bob Cat Build thread!
ORIGINAL: BIGBARPER Nice lasse, what did you put on the card prior to the BVM heat shield? Have you done your flap clearance yet? Phil. I painted the protect cover with epoxy and fiberglass (163g) strips, before I used the Bvm heat sheilds. I have not come so far yet! (saving the problem for this month!!) Lasse P |

Sorry! I have not had the time with my build thread!(have too much to do in my business!!)[&o] Regards Lasse Palm |

ORIGINAL: Ali Great work as always Lasse. Good luck with the maiden, and if you ever get any spare time I have a new Ultra Bandit coming my way that could use a great builders skills like yours ;) Regards Al I am Really looking forward to try my new Bob Cat, may I ask where you have your CG on your BC? If it flies well! So the size would be good for me to take to Florida jets next year and get fly with the really big guys over there!;) As you know, it's just a pricing issue.[;) Personally, I really liked your first UB with the Airshow scheme White,Orange,Blue. It was after I saw your UB with this color scheme at RC universe, that I decided to buy my own custom painted Ultra Bandit. Regards Lasse Palm |

ORIGINAL: Couch Potato I'll be interested how you adjust the clearance, maybe I can copy your technique. I'm just too scared to go mad with a permagit block and screw it up. This was my solution! I sanded with Scuff Board/sanding block and painted with blue touch up paint from Bvm. Lasse P |

I sit here and enjoy with a glass DRUMGUISH (Scotch whiskey) after a successful maiden![sm=spinnyeyes.gif]
I am using Futaba 2.4 GHz for the first time! And it works for me perfectly, so far!! The model has had two flights with Jet Cat P-70, and I must only acknowledge that it would be great with 2kg more thrust in my BC!![sm=tongue_smile.gif] Pictures! http://www.viddler.com/explore/spectre/videos/2/ The maiden video is ready in a few days! Regards Lasse Palm |

RE: Bvm Bob Cat Build thread!
Excellent maiden!! And great work on the knife edge. I'm still trying to dial mine in. Did you program that in a mix, or is it all thumb work?
