Hi I'm just about finished my seagull edge 540 and I'm using a super tiger g20 23cc glow engine, what prop size would suit this engine best?

Hi im looking for info on cog on fly fly bae hawk@import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

I got 2 planes for the missus, a little foamy PINK Sukhoi brand new £20. and a Irvine Tutor 40 complete with 4 brand new s3003 servo's, OS 46 la engine, futaba receiver, eneloop battery pack, battery checker for £30

Yes it is quite dark, how do i over come overheating, sorry for all the questions i am new to this hobby.   @import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

The head and the exhaust stick out from the cowl quite a bit so the air flow over the engine is quite good.@import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css); im unsure of age of engine as I bought second hand but was assured it had low run time. fuel tank position is level with carb. engine is mounted on its side. it is sitting behind a cowl but does get good air flow, i am using model technics 10% fuel there seems to be a bit of discoloring around top of engine ie black.

Hi all I have a Black horse Renegade with an Irvine 53 up front, the problem I am having is during flight I seem to be losing alot of power after about 5 mins of flying (no extra power from half stick to full stick). What could be causing this? @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

I have been using foam ear plugs as exhaust bungs to stop the used oil dripping out after flying, it works a treat. they expand to fill the hole perfect. Also helps that I work in a factory where you can get as many as you like free. @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

Yes as the plane sits on a level workbench the right horizontal stabilizer sits approx 15 mm lower than the opposite side. @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

Hi thanks for your reply. the fin and tailplane are at 90' and the structure of the fuselage is mainly solid. Im tempted to take it back to the shop as it is only a week old. I could probably live with it but its just annoying as you like new models to look perfect. @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

@import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css); Hi all. I recently built My Blackhorse Renegade and maidened it today. Whilst taxing back up the runway I noticed the tail plane was slightly lower on one side (approx 1 1/2 cm), which was not like this when I built it. I measured all surfaces and they are spot on so I can only put it down to a slight twist in the fuss. is there any way of overcoming this problem. and will it effect flight perfomance at all.?   The plane was sat in my car for a good few hours whilst the sun was out yesterday. could this of shrank the film causing it to twist?  @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);Edited By M1TCH on 04/06/2011 22:26:00

It is worth getting yourself a simulator such as phoenix to help you learn. I found it helped me quite a bit especially with orientation and landings. Good luck,

I think its more of an optical illusion. The camera is just one of the cheap mini dv jobbies from ebay £12 i think. Soon as you start the engine the vibrations make the picture appear wobley. That is the most stable video out of 4 the other 3 are alot worse. I need some sort of anti vibration material unerneath camera.@import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);

I cant rate it high enough. It is a fantastic second plane very responsive and very forgiving. I have just upgraded the engine from irvine 46 to a 53 with a 12 x 6 prop which has livened it up.   Buy this plane you wont be dissapointed. love mine ..
