RE: Where the heck is Creek Hobbies?

Creek Hobbies web site is still up and running; seems kinda costly for someone who has "gone out of business".

RE: RC Kit Reviews - Worthless!

I consider RC mag reviews to be just like political statements; you can take them at face value if you like, but you really need to read between the lines, paying attention to what is said, and what...

RE: Cub Engine Selection Please

Patriot: I agree that the Saito 182 twin would be superlative, but the OS 160 twin is cheaper (from Chief Aircraft).

RE: Cub Engine Selection Please

I beg to differ; gasoline is more volatile than methanol, and easier to ignite with a spark. The 100" wing on the Cub is just going to fly slower than my 88" Clipped-wing Cub. The gas engine will...

RE: Cub Engine Selection Please

RAY44: I have stayed away from gas because of the handling and storage risk. Gas engines only really come into their own above 80" wingspan on an aerobatic plane, IMHO. I just don't think that...

8411 vs 8611 digital servos

Danny, what is the difference? I get the impression from RCU posts that the 8411s developed gear train slop too easily and that the 8611 corrects this; is my understanding correct? Additionally,...

RE: Alternate Way for Wing Retention on Sig SE??

I use two heavy rubber bands on my SE, and have had no problems. If it ain't broke, why fix it? SVF

RE: Super Stunts 60 setup

RE: Stinger 120 Wing Lightening/Strengthening

Thanks for the reply, Dave. I am still exploring options, as I have a fair number of planes in the repair que, but I am looking towards a Stinger 120 or a 72" Edge for the future. Perhaps I should...

RE: Stinger 120 Wing Lightening/Strengthening

1. Did you build the wing at 80", or at 72"? (I assume you are doing a kit, not "bashing" an ARF).

2. What size glow engine would you recommend (I'm not yet ready to...

RE: deadband

I thought that one of the things you could do with a digital servo was to adjust the width of the dead band?

RE: Frequency change, TX

I think that you can probably switch to ch 25, but ch 15 would be too much of a reach.
For good and sound reasons, Danny may well recommend that you have the radio tuned to whichever channel you...
