RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

I guess you gota point there. How do you think would be the best way to attach some kind of tube to the muffler itself?

RE: Hangar 9 40 Size Piper Pawnee!!!

RE: gyros?

I have read alot of post about the GY401 and it would be a good choice for a better heli down the road. I also did some looking and found the CSM-200 heading lock gyro for around $97. Any thoughts or...

RE: RE: RE: RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540

I have found for knife edge on mine, I had to sub trim the ailerons to get the roll coupling out. Mine wanted to tuck one way and pull on the other side. I am using the futaba t6xa so I guess I could...

RE: RE: RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540

As I said, I have already made the plane nose heavy with no results. It still wants to baloon up and down. I have went from 5.5 inches up to 4 inches and it does the same thing. It's funny though,...

RE: RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540

RE: RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540

It would seem that way, but I moved the balance up to 4 inches and the plane still wants to porpose up and down. It dos'ent seem to matter if I trim the plane to climb a little or dive a little, it...

RE: RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540

RE: RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540

Maybe the differance is in your magnum 52 and the type sevos. Maybe who ever grabbed the wood out of the bin for mine was a little lighter. I really don't know the answer. I had a magnum 52 on a...

RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540

No, I did not know that there was that much difference in the fuse between the xtreme 540 and the 330. I have only seen the 330 fly 1 time at a fun fly back when they first came on the market. I...

RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540

I forgot to say that after messing with the aileron sub trims, the knife edge is much, much better. I have been able to do knife edge at 0 airspeed with the help of a little head wind. I think with...

RE: New CG Ex-Treme 540
