I got rid of all my glow and went gas except two 40 size glow planes.If I could find gas that size that I liked those would be gas too. It was the best choice I ever made with my RC planes. I thought...

You know this is one reason they are good. Not only would it be bad to fly full throttle for 30 minutes, I would probably be so tired that I would crash before the plane would! :D

One thing to consider when we have so much information on modding a plane like the Rev 70 is just how it may impact you and your style of flying. An example might be the argument of pin hinges verses...

Although I don't have my Revolver now (hit a tall tree one day),I still frequent this thread at times. I is a very helpful thread and you are right many of the mods do not have to be done. I flew my...

RE: Larger Revolver

Ok, that makes sense. If we are running 4.8V ignition with the A123s we would still need an inline voltage drop down regulator to our ignitions to provide a more accurate voltage to the ignition. I...

RE: Larger Revolver

Ahicks, I am a little cloudy as to the opti setup. Are you stating that with the mod, you would no longer need a separate switch for your ignition? I still use an ignition battery since I don't have...

RE: Larger Revolver

I know this question was not directed at me, yet I can share my limited knowledge on it. I have used the same tanks for both glow and gas, except you cannot use the lines, stoppers, etc. It is the...

RE: Larger Revolver

You are correct - basically just adding the plate over the two gear halfs strengthens the overall gear assembly and it does not change the bolt formation. The plate extends to were the gear just...

RE: Larger Revolver

Microdon, what I did was gradually change mine out as they are quite expensive. I purchased a charger that would charge four at once and then bought my batteries one or two at the time to conserve...

RE: Larger Revolver

I only put a small flat piece on mine. Drilled the four LG holes and set the plate between the bolt heads and the gear. Never had an issue at all. The plane flies and lands so well, unless you really...

RE: Larger Revolver

I am very fortunate in that I work in IT and I can get power supplies any time a server is decomissioned. Not long ago I decomissioned some Dell PowerEdge and HP servers. I brought home 4 800 watt...

RE: Larger Revolver

I switched out to A123s for all my gassers and they are simply the best for my situation. I could not believe how nice they are and how easy they are to maintain - a little pricey out the gate...

RE: Larger Revolver

Update on my Rev 70 wings:

I was wondering where my wing blanks were so I emailed GP support and they said that they found a blemish on one of them and rather than send them out they decided to...

RE: Larger Revolver

I think the problem is that some servo bays are way off. Being off a small amount and still getting the horn to fit the reinforcement block is no big deal and no one would probably care at all. My...

I am still waiting for my wings to come in. The lady called and verified the address and said she was shipping them so I will wait and see what I get.

RE: Larger Revolver

Just to echo some thoughts that folks have had. We all know we can fix the problems and most buyers probably will because they want to get the plane in the air.

More importantly is that even if...

RE: Larger Revolver

I see and understand both sides of this issue totally. I have fixed some of the worse ARFs imagineable - one was a PHP Edge 30cc (a total workmanship disaster). I spent hours upon hours fixing the...

RE: Larger Revolver

It is the pins. It looks like someone just did not get them straight when they glued them in. The hole may even be crooked. The fuse is fine and looks very nice. It did not even have many wrinkles in...
