RE: Minnflyer (AKA Mike Buzzeo) has unexpectedly passed away

What a loss to the community. I mostly lurk here these days, but I've chatted with Mike via PM several times over the years, and he was truly a class act. I've been in this hobby off and on since...

RE: Piperjet Project!!!!

That would be an interesting subject. I've been following the progress as part of my job. I don't know that I'd exactly call it a "beauty", but it certainly has a unique configuration. Your second...

RE: Throttle Arm for FS-91 Surpass II?

Thanks Don! Looking at the Tower page (http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXCW25&P=OW), it's listed as an "O.S. Throttle Lever 120Surpass". It wasn't clear that it would fit the...

Throttle Arm for FS-91 Surpass II?

Hi,

I need a throttle arm for my FS-91 Surpass II, and I can't find a part number for it in the owners manual. This is literally the arm that the throttle pushrod attaches to. It screws onto...

OS FS-91 CAD Drawing?

Does anyone know where I might find a CAD drawing of this engine? I can draw one up myself, but it would save LOTS of time if someone else has one!

RE: windshield needed for rcm 1/3 aeronca champ

ScaleRCpilot,

I'll look forward to that construction article. The next best thing to building one yourself is watching someone else do it! I'm getting ready to order the electric Champ kit...

I found that second photo after discovering this thread the other day. That is one beautiful model. The detail, especially the oleo, is fantastic. I'd love to see that in...

RE: windshield needed for rcm 1/3 aeronca champ

You're welcome ScaleRCpilot. I really doubt many people would even recognize the difference in windshields. I also think a scale version with a scale oleo is MUCH more of a challenge and could...

Dare Wright Flyer Power Recommendations?

RE: Power Recommendations for Dare Wright Flyer?

I'll look into the Pico Stick motors. I have a little experience with Li-Po's - I have one in my E-Flite Blade CX. But I need a whole course in how to wire up two motors, an ESC, and a battery. ...

RE: Power Recommendations for Dare Wright Flyer?

I searched all of the forums, and I couldn't find much. Most posts were prior to 2003, so I'm hoping to find someone that recently completed one. Here's the information from Dare's website:

RE: CX2 Vibration and TBE After Crash

Thanks Jim. I hope that helps some others. Using scotch tape to balance the blades worked like a charm.

Replacing the shafts was easier than I thought. The assembly manual in Neall's post...

Here's what I did based on Jim's description:

Remove the blades from the helicopter, and reassemble them with the screws. Now you have a single rotor assembly with the balls at the center. I...

RE: CX2 Vibration and TBE After Crash

RE: CX2 Vibration and TBE After Crash

CX2 Vibration and TBE After Crash

I smacked my CX2 pretty good today - hit the concrete wall in my basement and fell about 5 feet. Broke both lower blades, one upper blade, and mangled the flybar. I've replaced all the blades and...
