RE: Are Unlimited Reno Racers Warbirds?

I think my post is being misunderstood. My stand is that a racer is not a warbird. Just wanted to clear that up, I agree P-51B.

First picture you have a highly modified "P-51 Racer"

Next 2...

RE: Are Unlimited Reno Racers Warbirds?

Is a P-51 a P-51? Of course, I don’t think anyone here is arguing that. I think “Warbird” has to do with the role that an aircraft is engaged in(some of you need to re-read the question) , or a...

RE: Move over boyz!

I'll just buy them for the uniforms, can't tell if any will pass as a marine uniform in that first picture, but I definitely see some items I can use.

RE: Are Unlimited Reno Racers Warbirds?

I personally don't care how models are built, modified, painted etc., but I do not like what they do to the full size "warbirds" in order to race them a lot of the time. I'm not an activist, it's...

RE: Brian Taylor Corsair - Going for it!

Great jog so far, keep it going!

Now for the question: Everyone has a different way of doing things, so this is how I do it. When I glass I always glass the wing first, then I check the fit to...

RE: Death of a SM F-15

That is precisely when she went into a roll, you then had one flap at full down and the other at half. Swept wing aircraft react more to asymmetrical configurations than straight wing aircraft. I had...

RE: Death of a SM F-15

It looked like a pull up on the elevator after it went inverted. It is hard to see with the sun orientation like he said and that could have been a contributing factor. I was just curious as to when...

RE: Death of a SM F-15

Sorry about your loss, that sucks! At what time did you raise the flaps completely, or did you? Having a servo on each flap can cause a roll if you either raise or lower them and one fails. Just...

RE: do arfs belong in scale forum?

I voted yes. In my opinion though, RCU's topic headings are way to general. Scale what? For what? How scale? It's laughable really; all of the forums are full of all types of models. I prefer and...

RE: split this forum!

I don't know why this was moved out of the RC Warbirds and Warplanes section, this is a good way to silence it though. In my opinion the RC Airplane forums need to be reorganized into a much more...

RE: split this forum!

Something definitely needs to be done, but the whole site needs to be reevaluated to make it more efficient. Most people don't like change no matter what, so it won't happen, but we can talk about...

RE: Ultrascale corsair tailwheel

I belive that if you used Elmers glue to glue a brass tube in a piece of PC board that you would have a really hard time pulling it out, besides the tail wheel does not rely on one joint. It's a...

RE: Ultrascale corsair tailwheel

Yea, like I said, the original tail wheel was designed for a 1/6 scale plane. On the top arm I would definitely use two pieces of PC board instead of the one. Also for the Ziroli size of plane a...

RE: Ultrascale corsair tailwheel

I tried to show in my pictures that the tail wheel is designed in such a way that it does not rely on the strength of the solder to hold it together. The solder is used more like a stopper. If you...

RE: Ultrascale corsair tailwheel

The tail wheels as made out of PC board were used on 2 Top Gun Ziroli Corsairs that I know of. Earl Aune used it on his 1/6 scale Corsair that is 9 years old or so, he recently auctioned it away. ...

RE: Do Polls like the "ARF" one divide us?

I didn't vote because there isn't a good choice. Personally I don't care what people fly but I would like to see separate forums for warbird ARFs and ARCs, Sport and Aerobatic ARFs, Warbird Kit...

RE: Ultrascale corsair tailwheel

The way the Earl Aune tail wheel was designed, you don’t have force pulling against a single sided soldered joint. So the PC board tail wheels are extremely strong and lightweight, less than 2...

Pull the blue plastic off and use the template sheet with the stick and other things. It's at the bottom, it says "Template for Gunsight glass. Cut from thin clear plastic sheet."

RE: Simple tips for bidding on e-bay & warbirds

One BIG problem with bidding at the last minute is forgetting bid at all. Unless you use a sniper bidding program you will most likely forget to bid on many auctions using that method. The real...

RE: Simple tips for bidding on e-bay & warbirds

As a seller though I think you should bid early, high and bid often! Bidding wars are more likely to start when you do this, and that's a good thing. Also, when you bid first and early, you get the...
