RE: Belt drive or drive shaft?

The RS4 belt design always sucked up small rocks in between the rear belt and the shock tower when driving on parking lots. This is much less of an issue on carpet.

RE: Zenoah 22.5 from RedMax Recipacator

How did this conversion end up? I have one of these engines that was given to me that came with a single needle barrel type carb (WY?). Is this engine worth flying / The redmax case says G2K.

RE: Review for Zenoah G-26 in FlyRc

I guess it sounds like 3D prop hanging would be out for me with a G26. I would be ok with old school aerobatics I guess as I have that covered with my Funtana. Is there anything out there in the sub...

RE: Review for Zenoah G-26 in FlyRc

I picked up a Midwest cap 232 recently which i'm told should weigh around 15 lbs ready to fly. Would a G26 fly this plane?

Lexan canopys?

I don't think you can vacuform a fully rounded canopy. you could do a 2piece what the pilot would have to peice it together. Sounds like more pain than it's worth, eh?

I need help!! OS50SX-H trouble.

Don't change the muffler, it works great with the OS50. The OS50 has a tough break-in period that you have to work through. I would start by changing the glo plug if there is any white fuzz on the...

Sims...

I have run G2 on a 433 celeron before I built my new system so I would guess the AMD 500 should cover it. G2 likes a decent video card so I would guess that would be the problem area. Of course a...

Quick 15

I would be the fist guy with a big block engine in that Quick 15 when I drop in one of my Norvel 25 engines. The norvel weighs the same as most 15's and has the power of an OS32.

Carbon Fiber Tail Rotors

nope you missed my point. I'm talking about using a 60 size fin and putting it on a 30 or 50 size heli to protect the 60 size (95mm) tail blades. I'm sure the stock size would have bolted up fine. ;)

the bright contrasting colors do help a lot, but the biggest visual improvement on a raptor is to put a single stripe of black electical tape at the bottom of the mold line
