I am thinking of doing this jet in EDF, and I can install a 16lb thrust fan for an AUW of about 22.6 lbs. This is thrust/weight ratio of 0.71. That sounds like enough.

What do you folks think?

I had this problem when using it on my float plane. The step on floats are just slightly aft of the CG needing a negative number.

Wow, I was just told that it would be 4-5 months before the next round is made. No military schemes in stock, so they are all sold out. Since everybody is asking for it, maybe they will make a few...

I just did an update of my sound system. Took out the two 4" speakers and replaced with two 2" SPL and a transducer and bass transducer for the same weight. But she sounds much nicer now.

RE: Hangar-9 Sopwith Camel Build Thread

My guess is that the WWI planes don't sell as well. For instance, they have no WWI planes in their UM line either.

I read an article in an RC magazine where a guy just puts each wheel on a scale one at a time. Put a book on the opposite wheel to keep it level. Then he calculates the CG. I think my next balance...

Bob, glad to hear Snoopy is flying well. How did you make your tail lifting? Did you just change the angle of attach?

RE: NEW H9 P51 Mustang 60 ARF

There is a slight angle to the gear doors when retracted, but it is not bad. They clear the wheel well without any mod.

RE: NEW H9 P51 Mustang 60 ARF

I raked the gear forward. I think if you fly off grass, it is a must-mod. Rake the landing gear forward by adding a 1/8” spacer or shim under the back mounting bolts of the landing gear, and...

RE: NEW H9 P51 Mustang 60 ARF

IMO, Put the CG at 4.5” aft of the wing leading edge and NOT 4 7/8” per the manual.
