  1. if you use them to glue on turn it over and use the back keep the front to cut on last a lot longer.
  2. has anyone any idea as to why so many of parkzone models are being cut in price
  3. does any one know if giant cod accepts payment by check card or can you only pay by nocheck????
  4. although  it is described as a brush less motor it is brushed.
  5. hi  the c of g is where the instructions in the manual say it should be ,and yes it is twitchy and tip stalling it  seems very much lacking in power i have been in touch with horizone hobbies and they come up with change the prop to a smaller one as on the mini mustang.
  6. hi all has any one managed to get the parkzone mini sohkoi to fly with any success  my one is very unstable and seems to be under powered i have moved the lipo cell back as far as it will go and the c of  g is now about where it should be but still does not want to perform... 
  7. hi you need to check the c of g you will see from the instruction manual it should be 35 to 37mm back from the leading edge of the wing but as supplied it is 27mm making it very tail heavy try a little blue tack on the rear to move the c of g back to were it should be.
  8. li po cells and how to store them for a period of time do any of the manufactures give any advice on this subject i read many articles and all say something different,
  9. does this mean although we are part of the so called common market we have to pay vat twice how can this be.?
  10. i am not talking about buying from abroad only about buying from the retailers in this country when i see a price on a site as a special offer and then check the recomended retail price from the english importer i do not expect to pay considerably more for it after all a offer price is allways reconised as being less not more.
  11. has any one else noticed that some of the so called offer prices are in fact more than the recomended prices of the importers one such site is J.PERKINS. some of there prices are in fact cheaper than the offers on many of the sites i always was under the impression that a special offer was cheaper not dearer maybe im wrong.
  12. i do not know if my last names got on to the correct part of the site so here goes again sky blazer. sky master . sky dancer.
  13. many thanks for that reply i have been puzzled over this for some time once again thank you
  14. what is the differance of sensor and sensorless brushless motors?
  15. hi i have just seen your posting and no this is not normal it looks like a faulty potentiometer this is why  the dx6i were recalled
  16. it is true what you say when it is bound but i do not think this is so while you are binding and you pick up someone else's transmission Edited By jack lackmaker on 06/05/2009 08:53:35
  17. not enuf information is given on how vunerable you are while binding  that you could bind to someone else's transmitter with disastrous results
  18. why is there no throttle kill switch on spectrum 2.4 transmitters so as to stop any chance of the motor  starting up while binding it is not always obvious that someone else near bye is binding at the same time as you with the result that you have a uncontrollable model with the obvious dangers to your self and others
  19. does any one know what cool power fet is???
  20. i had a word with horizon hobbys this morning about the dx6i  recall and asked them when we will have them back they do not have an answer as the manufacturers have not given them an answer it could be months i did suggest that they could give us the choice of up dating to the 7i and we could pay towards it needless to say that went down like a lead brick they said the responsibility was with the model shop not them not a very satisfactory result by any manner of means .
  21. please note there is a total recall for all the 6i transmitters with the listed codes they are not repairing them but are replacing them with new ones when they get them in stock
  22. please be aware if you send your dx6i back to horizon for  modifation  they will not be repairing it but will replace it with a new one unfortunately they have not any stock and do not know when they will have it seems as if the fault is more serious than they first thought.
  23. sorry should read other areas                                                     jack
  24. hi all    i requested a copy of the bye laws of waltham forest and there was no mention any where of model planes they then sent me a copy of bye laws from other are implying  if it is good enough for them then it is good enough for us they seemed to have forgot that bye laws have to be passed by the home office .one thing i found amusing was if you are not a model plane but full size in an emergency please contact the council first before you try to land.
