RE: Sewn Hinges on HOB mustang.

I just slapped it together, I didn't want to get too fancy, as the entire tail is such rough shape.

Ideally, should I be threading the string through 6 sets of holes set very close together?

RE: Maybe Fast Scat Cat/Jett

I'm not a pylon racer, and I may be too late, but if you are having troubles with the nose being heavy, I'd avoid adding the 6.7oz cloth. It doesn't add up to much, but a little means alot on the...

Sewn Hinges on HOB mustang.

Greetings once again.

Since I had such a blast once I got the engine running, I figured I'd better figure out why I lost the tail in my 1/12th scale HOB Mustang.

RE: AP wasp 061.

Thanks guys.

So far I've swapped the fuel lines, gone over the engine again, and I'm heading out right now to go get a tap to try to build a turbo head for it. The plug blew on me, probably...

AP wasp 061.

I'm having issues with my little engine.

I have built a HOB Mustang, and installed an 061 in it. I can get the little bugger to run fine on the ground. As soon as I pick it up though, it sags...

RE: Cheap Vaccum Forming machine Maybe?

Vaccum bagging question.

I just acquired a vaccum pump from a buddy, and I know it's good enough for bagging, but I'm almost thinking it's too much.

RE: Glassing a GWS Formosa?

RE: Glassing a GWS Formosa?

I did it with my Stryker. The things flys like it's on a laser now, and comes in smoking hot! I think I'm pushing 100MPH on the flat.

I used 3/4 ounce cloth, and gooped on some West Sytems...

RE: Is it Possible?

With the 6102, make sure the "expo graph" goes starts shallow, then gets steeper. YOu are looking for a positive #. I recalled from memory, and just checked my radio. I have a 6102.

RE: Need help with Mold design

I'm sorry, but I need to ask.

These multi part cowls are laid up in the mold with all the pieces bolted together? (seems obvious, I just need clarification for my brain)

RE: hitting a lazybee!?!?!?!, has anyone ever done this.

The little bipe, is it a kit, or did you bash something?

These airframes look so wrong. I may have to put one together. I have an Enya 19 looking for a home.
