RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Glad to hear Anthony. On the subject of plug's. When you say stock if you mean the one that came with it, don't fly with it. Those are junk. Have taken many apart and the internal's are so degraded...

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

I agree on the stock plug's. Was assuming it was already replaced with an NGK.

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Some may offer a different opinion, but this is what I have done for thirty year's with gas engine's. First you need a tach, or really good ears. I would also recommend to check the timing. How to...

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Excellent work there. Love the idea of latex. And I see I'm not the only one who don't tape up the control horn. Never remember to do that till it's too late.

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Sanding an open structure is a pain. Thought maybe you discovered something new as fast as you got thru it. That is also one of the biggest reason's I like stits.No sanding required. But will be...

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Hey Anthony, 
How close to Koverall would you say that material is in application. On a scale of 1-10, 1 being no similarities what so ever.

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Looking good Anthony. When I use stits fabric I found 150 was good for attatching and 200 was good for the final shrink. 175 for everything inbetween.
But that's me. Keep it up.

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Anthony maybe this can be of some help. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_10407772/tm.htmI personally would go 0 on the wing's and 2 or 3 on the stab.
Good Luck.

RE: Balsa USA Fokker DR1 1/4 scale

Do you really have to ask? Of course we would like more pics.
And I checked out thatAircraft Spruce site, which bring's up a question. What do you think of the Dacron?
