RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

I hope everyone is doing well!

I am getting along with the upper wing. I am getting close to joining the upper wing panels.

I am at the point of hinging the ailerons. First of all, are...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

o.k., I feel a little bit better. I found Bruno Stachel's build thread where he describes the exact same thing I am seeing. Unfortunately he mentions he got past the issue but I did not see what...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

I looked a bit closer at what I had going on this morning. The rib that is sticking up above the aileron spar is the W-7 rib that has been discovered to be slightly oversized anyway. Another thing I...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

Thanks for the input on the wood. I picked out the straightest pieces and actually began building [X(]. Things seemed to be going reasonably with the upper wing until I layed the aileron spar in...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

I sure hope your definition of problematically warped is different from what I am seeing. I would have to say at least %50 of the balsa strips have a slight amount of curve to them. Like I said, with...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

This past week I finally was able to dig into that big box of wood and start sorting through it. I went through the and labeled the the upper wing ribs and everything else that was identified in the...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

Jtisch,

Thanks for the advice. I will have to see how well the rest of the build goes getting to that point. Hopefully I will feel good enough about my skills to go that route. I have been...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

Thanks for all of the info! You guys are great!

Prop Nut....Do you have part numbers or info for the pushrods you are using? BUSA's site says you will need 'gold n rods' and 'gold n cable'. I...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

Sweet picture bhole!

I have a while to decide on which tank I put in. I actually have a dubro 16oz tank as well. I am not sure about the stopper though. Are you saying the 'GAS' stoppers are...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

Anybody have recommendations on servos for this plane if I am going the pushrod route? I would like to stay in the $40.00 range if possible. I believe Spektrum's site says their DX7 will work with...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

Thanks VG. I guess I have a while before having to decide on method for controling the tail surfaces.

I do want to get the servos on the way as it looks like I need some aileron servos at hand...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

O.k., you convinced me, the G26 went back to the LHS and I have the G38 and a Spektrum DX7 on the way. All I have to do is pay the shipping of the G26 back to Horizon. Having flown a lot of...

Well, the G26 is sitting here and what I have to work with. I have my entire Christmas (gift wise) tied up in this plane, motor, and soon to be radio. Unfortunately selling the brand new engine for...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

That comforts me a bit, thanks prop nut!

Another question, will I be able to use the stock muffler on the G26 or will I need to purchase something else?

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

Thanks for all of the input so far guys. I am very excited about trying this build. A good number of years ago I built an Aerostar .40 trainer where I had to build the kit (wing and all) and cover it...

RE: BUSA Fokker DVII

Hello all!

I recently purchased the BUSA DVII kit as I have always been a big fan of the DVII. I have been flying RC for about two years now and can fly aileron warbirds pretty well. I have put...
