RE: Spadet trainer

I knew that the local sign makers had to be buying CORO from someone locally, so I went and asked one of them and they told me. I went there and bought a couple sheets of 4x8 4mill. I think I paid...

I have a couple of these that were basically new when I put them up, but I haven't charged them in two years. How long should I charged them for the first time after this length of time?

RE: Debonair Landing Gear

I just used aluminum stock from Home Depot and some music wire. The music wire helps it keep its shape and affords it a little spring. I use small bolts for the axles.

RE: Debonair wing

One good thing about a SPAD is that you really have to work hard at screwing one up. You mentioned a tail-wheel linkage, well here's how I did mine. It may not be pretty but it works and works well....

RE: Coro cutter information

The coro-cutter is a nice tool. It would be nicer still, if they had a tool that would cut across the flutes as easily as this tool cuts down the flutes.

RE: About the Sig Kadet LT 40 ARF

Thanks. The Sig website and Tower Hobbies didn't mention how many servos were required. I thought it may only have throttle, elevator and rudder controls.

RE: Hobbico Top Fueler III

Good, I wasn't sure if gravity played a role in the pump's ability to perform correctly. The pump will fit better at the spot I want to install it if I can mount it upside down.

Hobbico Top Fueler III

Would there be a problem mounting the Hobbico Top Fueler MKIII upside down, as pictured below? Or does the fuel hose connectors need to be pointed down to allow fuel to drain out of the pump?
