I'm having trouble getting my switched channels 13 and 14 to work with my Hanson Hobbies NERSv2 receiver switch. It works on the proportional channels, but not on either of the switched channels.

Dad upholstered the seats for the Stinson. I installed the Futaba S-bus system for the wing servos. We now have just one servo wire to each wing and control the flap, headlight and aileron servos.

RE: 07 TopFlite Stinson build

We installed the Saito 36cc. It hasn't been completed, so not sure how it will fly.

Dad created some really classy seats, and I programmed and installed the Futaba S-bus in the wings.

RE: 07 TopFlite Stinson build

The Reliant is back on the work table after a great flying season. I ran the Saito 36 on a DeCathlon as I've had a learning curve with most of the gassers. This one was no exception. I had three dead...

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

I'm flying the Funtana 125 with an SAP 180 and stock gear. The gear is aluminum, you could bend it some to gain ground clearance. I haven't had any issues with the stock gear for the past year.

RE: SYSSA 30CC GAS MADE IN USA

My tip for engine storage is put skis on the plane and fly. My preference is ice on snow, it's the most consistent surface. You do need to avoid walking on the runway, depending on the snow depth,...

RE: GAS Saito

Is anyone running a smoke setup with this engine? Can I add smoke to the stock muffler? I've got plenty of room to put a smoke tank and pump inside the Super Decathlon.

Thanks,

RE: GAS Saito

I agree, the fuel consumption is miserly. I can't imagine how much it cost to run the glow equivalent.

I'd really like to get mine running properly, it starts easily and sounds great.
