Tony knows his stuff. He probably has the largest RC radio repair shop outside of Hobby Services.

RE: crystal question

A jump to/from 24-46 is out of spec according to the mfg. There's a reason for that, I'm sure, and it's not just to make more money in the service center.. (That's not a profit center for them) I...

RE: how to secure rx and batteries pack in the plane.

Something similar works very well for me also. I'll take tiny eye bolts from Home depot (8 pack of about .25" ID for $.79 or so), and open them up to J hooks. Then screw these into stringers or...

RE: Flaperons on an Avistar - DONT

Flaperons are a bad idea on most RC airplanes.

When you deploy flaperons, you are increasing the angle of attack on the outboard portion of the wing relative to the inboard portion. This means...

RE: Need help tuning my OS 61RF-P

I don't think pipe tuning is going to fix it if it has problems idling. If you want to eliminiate pipe tuning issues, run it on the header only to tune initially. Won't make the neighbors happy,...

RE: OS 1.60's

RE: OS 1.60's

Eric, Aircraft grade bolts are 28 thread. You are looking for an AN 4 (1/4" bolt). Many many bolt patterns and sizes to choose from.

You could also weld shut a glow plug and make a true plug...

140 Sport Issues

Bought a 140 sport about a year ago. The engine never would run right, was slobbering rich on the bottom end. It would even do this with the regulator all the way in and low speed all the way out. ...

RE: 2 meter length, where is that measured from?

Imagine a box that measures exactly 2M on each end. Your plane must fit inside of this box with no part sticking out, wingspan parallel to one side of the box.

RE: First Attempt at CA hinges??

Syringes are probably overkill. Go to your LHS and get some of the CA tip extenders. They're about 1 1/2 inches long and give you good control. For the hinge, cut the covering and make a little...

RE: Which Incidence Meter should I Buy?

I'll throw in a vote for the GP level. I had used the Robart for years. Eventually the needle got stiff and wouldn't give a good reading. I have the GP now. The scale is bigger, the laser rides...

RE: Fixed landing gear for Tai-Ji 60

Bolly .60 size f3a swept. Will drop in right in front of the wing. You'll have to cut the belly pan a bit and reinforce the fuse floor a little. I had a Tai Ji and bought the gear to convert. ...

RE: Venus 40 empennage controls?

The setup isn't sexy, but it works. Put a slight z bend in one of the pushrods to get the 2 next to each other so they move without binding, and you'll be fine. Put a little locktite on the set...

Barrel roll is a non-axial roll. If the axis of a roll is the center of the "barrel," the rolling action of the plane follows the perimeter of the barrel.

RE: Patternship wing Root LE vs Tip LE

If the LE's at the root and tip are different, what may be going on is that the original design has blended airfoils. If both of your ARFs are like this, I don't know that I'd call it a construction...
