engine thrust angle / adverse yaw

I have my first true giant scale plane, a 1/3 scale Citabria. 131" WS, 38 lbs. Bought used. Installed a friends G-62 with Pro Zinger 22-10 to see if that would be enough engine. In general, plane...

RE: Engine thrust angle / adverse yaw

Trimmed for straight and level hands off, it has a little down elevator, and very little left aileron. I tried trimming out the ailerons with rudder, but if the rudder is off center at all, the tail...

RE: Saito FA270T valve part no

Saw that manual, but can't be sure the valves are the same for the twin carb,
twin plug version. Probably, but I'm looking for confirmation. Truth be known,
I really didn't want to order a...

Saito FA270T valve part no

Looking for someone who might have a Saito twin manual old enough to show the part no for the valves (intake and exhaust) on the FA270T. I believe they are the same valves as the 120 (SAI120S46) but...

RE: Perry Pump with OS 1.08

Have you already flown your Funtana/1.08? I have this combination, and it flies great for the most part. I have a 16 oz tank mounted just forward of the wing tube. Where I have a problem is in low...

RE: P-3 Orion

Just wondering how your plans are coming. I have just recently been thinking about the possibility of a P-3, which is why I searched here. I was looking at about 100" since it could be done in 1/12...

Seeker II - single conversion?

Just received my Seeker II. Works just as advertised on the bench.

There is nothing noted about "dual conversion" (just narrow band). Is this a single conversion receiver? If so, is this a cause...

Just received my Polk Seeker II. Works as advertised on the bench, and I haven't read anything bad about them, so I'm going to give it a try.

Saw in the literature from Polk that this is a "narrow...

super tiger questions

I have an S3000K. I'm confused on the carb sleeves. I have heard of both a sleeve that fits around the outside of the bottom of the carb bore on the "small" carb to fit the case, and a smaller sleeve...

GWS servo arms

Anyone know if GWS servos use a brand name arm (spline)? Or where to get GWS arms? I want to try a S15CL, but it only came with single sided servo arms, although they look stronger than standard. I...

310 control surface throws

The instructions that come with the kit are pretty sparse, but here's what it says:

"Set aileron and rudder throws to max. Elevator travel should be 1 1/4 up and 1 1/4 down. Throttle response on...

310 retracts

I ordered a set of Century Jet retracts for mine, and I don't think I can make the mains fit. How are you guys getting the retracts and wheels to fit in the wing?

The plans call for 3 3/4" wheels,...

st3000 rpm

No HP number here either, but mine swings a 20X8 zinger pro @7400 - 7600 RPM, will pull a 16lb big bingo unlimited vertical.

I'm using the stock carb with a semi custom fuel blend, and end up...

ace big bingo

Back to the original question - I think it's easiest to talk about prop and rpm. Mine weighs 16lbs dry, and although I use a ST3000 (which I think is about perfect for this plane), it has unlimited...

st3000 / big bingo

I have a Big Bingo with a ST3000. Perfect engine for this plane. I use a Pro Zinger 20X8, the engine turns about 7400 RPM on the ground, and the plane has basically unlimited vertical. I think this...

engine performance - ZDZ vs 3W: Help me build this database.

Good idea, love real information. I'm looking at using 2 RCS 140's on a new plane, and although I did not think they would be *the* highest power, you show a 3W-24 swinging an 18x8 MAS 800 rpm...

Harold, I also have the plans for the 72" version. They call 4 in back from the leading edge "sport" and 4 1/2 back "expert".

twin engine tank setup

Hey Jim,

A 32 oz fuel tank would be just about what I need. Have you ever tried to put 4 lines in the cap? I am building a twin gas engine Cessna 310, and would like to run one fuel tank in the...

Nosen 310 kit, anyone built it?

Got my kit, planning it out. I'm looking at going with RCS 140 gas engines. Little less power than YS120's, but close, and I want gas. I'm thinking the plane can handle the extra weight.

As far as...

plane for engine break-in

I'm building (well, still collecting parts) a Bud Nosen Cessna 310. Plan to use RCS 140 engines. I would like to get some time on the engines (one at a time) in a plane that won't cost too much, but...
