RE: New Great Planes Revolver

I have a spare. But would not be doing you a favor if I sent it to you. Suggest you replace both sides with an all purpose Dubro single gear. Much more durable. Before installing, double reinforce...

RE: New Great Planes Revolver

I guess I am one of the very lucky with genetics. Just had my annual eye exam. Perfect both eyes. No glasses even for reading. Seems I am waiting but the vision is still good. Hope to fly till 90.

RE: New Great Planes Revolver

Jet..When I was younger, speed was all I thought of. Now at 78(today) speed no longer is a priority. Unless it is to go to the bathroom.

Good luck speedsters!

RE: New Great Planes Revolver

150 mph???? I had a bird which was 110mph clocked by radar. Holy crap! Had to run half speed. 150mph sounds insane!

Good luck!

RE: New Great Planes Revolver

The 11x7 is probably the best for that .46. But a .46 is not enough power for that bird in my opinion. Yikes! Some are using 1.20fs & more! Go back & read some of the power being used in the quest...

Thanks for the offer. 3-4 hr drive for a 78 year old man is not on my radar these days.

Suggest you replace the fuse for $65 if all the other parts are in good shape. Did mine..flys great! Addicted now!

Yes, the new fuse IS that great! The gear attachment is...

RE: New Great Planes Revolver

For sure, the small Revolver is not for beginners. I have a .60 in mine & even after 20 years of flying, it can be a handful. I ripped the gear attachment out so many times on landing. After many...

Like I said, had about 15 landings. Some very rough due to pilot error, cross wind & 20 mph wind. No problems..yet!

Will keep you posted!

Very difficult to see what was done. A very close inspection showed several hardwood (1/2") supports epoxied to some 1/8" fuse supports. Nicely done. Basically what they did was to use...

RE: New Great Planes Revolver

Got about 15 flights in with the new fuse from GP.

Wow! What a nice job they did on the fuse to reinforce the area of landing gear attachment. No failures yet & that is with some rugged cross...

RE: New Great Planes Revolver

Are you talking about the 59" Revolver or the 70"? YS 1.40 in the 59" is insane. OK for the 70". I know you are not a nut case. Kidding of course.

Happy landings!

RE: New Great Planes Revolver

Great! Please take some pics BEFORE the first flight. Landing sure sounds interesting with that setup.

Has anyone tried flaperons with this bird? Sounds like a good way to slow her down.

With all that weight up front, what did you do for CG? Battery location? Add weight? Great flyer!
