RE: World Models 42% Ultimate Biplane

Wow!
Find me one of these for 360 amps at the same price and I'd be mighty tempted to buy and try one, unless the shipping turns out to be sky high. :D

Good Luck Saul,
It took me a while to figure out how to post the picks. I even gave up. Then I went back to my previous post and did an edit. Gave up again; but, some how the pics magically...

RE: World Models 42% Ultimate Biplane

Hi Greg,
Or, for around $30 + shipping you could go with only a double servo arm and single servo arm and use the servo cutouts already provided in the plane. Also, you'll save a dab of weight. ...

RE: World Models 42% Ultimate Biplane

Paul,
How about you building one of those canopy hatches in one of the familyroom walls? You can probably make some really big servo arms for latches! Of coarse that's only if Saul's hovering...

Hi Greg,
On my Python I have servo extensions that run from the receiver, with one running part of the way up each cabane and each held in place with it's own zip tie. These extension are never...

RE: World Models 42% Ultimate Biplane

Hey Greg,
That arming switch and push-button look pretty cool where/how you've located them.
I like the added touch of the "Danger" sign.
It's all the details toward the end of a build that...

Hi Greg,
Thanks for repeating. I found many answers and more information in post 92. I should have looked back.

1) What gauge are your battery wires?
2) What size are the bullet connectors for the battery wires?
3) Did all three battery gauge wires fit...

RE: World Models 42% Ultimate Biplane

What part did the 4 holes in the front of the cowl play?
I'm guessing Paul used them to be able to accurately mark the motor mount while the plane was standing in his stairway.:eek:

Cool procedure Saul!
I pretty much do the same thing.
I suppose what I was describing above in the earlier post was more about cause and effect and how things work out, than how to pic a motor.

RE: World Models 42% Ultimate Biplane

Saul,
So then it can probably swing 34 x 12 at 15S.
Or, maybe a 32 x 12 at 15S
Or, maybe a 30 x 14 at 15S.

We just can't exceed the power rating.
But,...
