  1. Be careful of making your extensions too long if they are solid'I have found that they crackuse only the flexi pipe for extensions or silicone tubing even the steel flexi can crack that I found, make sure that you clamp it on the firewall someware hope this helps  
  2. I have found the best clunks are sintered bronzewith that you don't have to cut your line to theengine which leads to other problems like sucking air
  3. All os engine thread sizes are odd, I tried to get a tap and die in australia and had the same problem cost a arm and leg  I just went and bought a new header pipe and cut it to suite the model
  4. Hi Doug the thread size is 11x.75 mm
  5. Thanks Bert  a great help thanks once again        John

  12. Hi all do we have a thread on electric to glow conversions? I have done a few my self and it is good fun let me know what you all think on this subject
  13. talking to a guy in the civil aviation safety authority and he just laughed about it  take a look at the size of the aircraft, it is a long way away from the model ,ok the model may not have been 5 kilometers away from the a/c but it sure was a long way if that model had hit or near missed the jet there would be very little left of it if anything and yet it was filmed on the ground all points a side I think it was very foolish flying a model so close to a international airport in the first place ,in australia you must be 3 nautical miles away from a aerodrome to fly model aircraft and a bit of common sence to go with it, been flying full size commercially most of my life belive it or not you do come across some strange things at times
  14. G'day I live just south of Perth in west australia  the video is a load of bull , a bit like the edge that  lost a wing
