RE: Turnigy 26CC

Hello. I just bought this engine from Hobby King. I thought it was a 26 cc displacement engine, but on the box it's labled as "Turnigy 26HP-S with a 32 cc. displacement. Is this just a typo? Does...

RE: JR 9503 issues

I agree with BuschBarber, and the setup he has suggested is what has worked for me; and, this is how the tech from Horizon set it up for me. I don't really see the need to select FLAPERON wing type,...

RE: JR 9503 issues

The 9303 Manual is almost verbatim what is in the new 9503 Manual. Here is the crux of my problem, both manuals state the same thing about Wing Type. They say to use FLAPERON if you are using 2...

RE: JR 9503 issues

Thanks for your help, everyone. Today I caved in, after having the 9503 since April, and called Horizon Support. The tech walked me through a set-up in a bout 10 minutes. The manual says to use...

RE: JR 9503 issues

Thanks, guys. I'll try both of your suggestions. Using the dual/mate function seems logical, and I thought I had tried it, but maybe I missed something.

RE: JR 9503 issues

I know this thread is 6 or 7 months old, but I think you guys could help me since you've touched on one issue that is similar to mine. I got a new JR 9503 in April. I've read the "manual" at least...

RE: Great Planes 25% Pitts M-12s 3D

Yes, couldn't agree with you more, Joe. On my smaller models (1.20 to 1.60 size glow engines) I've always used metal geared servos w. 125 oz torque. I have these on a Funtana 100 X and a Funtana 90,...

RE: Great Planes 25% Pitts M-12s 3D

I can't be as kind as bliksem. The hobby shop that recommended 80 oz servos for a 50 cc 19 lb. gas is just plain incompetent, and borders on negligence. One thing I learned early on.............if...

RE: Great Planes 25% Pitts M-12s 3D

Nice photos of the Pitts. Does it come with wheel pants, or did you just decide to leave them off for now?

RE: Great Planes 25% Pitts M-12s 3D

Yes, those non-aluminum landing gear are a pain. That's right where some of mine have cracked or delaminated; at the angle between horizontal and long limb of the gear. Maybe Great planes should...

RE: Great Planes 25% Pitts M-12s 3D

I've had cracks and structural failures of carbon fiber LG on other smaller planes in the past. I land very smoothly almost every landing; but one set of gear failed on a Hangar-9 Funtana X-100 when...

RE: Great Planes 25% Pitts M-12s 3D

I really like the Pitts M-12s compared to an Ultimate. But everyone says the Ultimate is the best biplane out there. I've seen the Aeroworks 50 cc Ultimate and it's really sweet, but it comes in at...

RE: OS 120 4 Stroke Surpass Pumped

I have an old O.S. Surpass 1.20 w. pump too; it's in the box new, and has never been run. I am looking for a good plane for it. Any suggestions out there? I'd prefer a cowled-in set-up rather than...

Hi, w5kfg.

What did you attach the Dave Brown engine mount to? Did you double-up or reinforce the inside of the firewall? There's not much left to attach the mount to after you cut out the...
