  3. It was one of the American mags early 1981. E S has linked to the article.
  4. Hi. If you still need help with your dynamix carb ,there's an article written in one of the mags about 1981 ,"webra dynamix carburetor beast or beauty? By Robert H Munn. I think it can still be found on line,but if you have any probs pm me & I will gladly send you a copy by post. Kenb
  5. Hi SW. Thanks for the reply. Will look into that. Cheers. Kenb
  6. Recently brought a DSM Excelsior 150 out of storage .Kit has been unopened for 20 odd years. Alas the veneers have parted company from the foam. Amongst the plethora of modern adhesives, is there one that will perform better than the age old copydex that we used to use over 40years ago? Ken
  7. Does anybody know the origins of these engines?or if spares are available. I am after a recoil spring for the pull start. The engine is a small marine glow of 0.21 capacity. I have searched online but can find nothing about them. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
  8. Hi Terry. I connected a separate 3v cell then managed to wrangle the old one out. Then fitted the remote cell on about 4inch lead on to the solder pads. If ever you need to change it again you don't need to strip it down. Fasten the cell down with some servo tape. Then remove support batery..Hope that makes sense. Ken b

    XHT module

    Just fitted one of these to a jr652 .very good. Easy to do & works well.
  10. Terry. I was in the same boat as you. Bought mine in 2008 never used just stored. I fitted a Frsky 2.4gig module, everything ok then found out about the 5 year battery. The cell is a cr2032 coin cell and is situated on the motherboard. To get to it, you have to remove the RF board , then remove 4 screws that hold the motherboard,lift the board and you can see the cell, it will probably have a yellow insulation round it. Mine still read 3.28volts but after 12 years on a 5year cell thought best to change it as it is powering the memory chip whenever the tx switched off. Without it all memory would be lost, including l believe the basic function of the set. There may be members of this forum who could explain in more detail. Unfortunately getting access to remove the cell is a bit of a pain, you have to remove the daughter board, or as I did, the switches at the top. Don't know how long it is before memory is gone so I proped it up with a remote cell while I removed and replaced it. Hope all this is of help. Best of luck. Ken
  11. Thanks John, sounds reassuring. Will have a go at mine now.
