Hi Andy, I'm in North Warwickshire.

[F/W R/C Flying Training]

I have my A cert and want to be able to take my B. I am self taught but now would like to get some "expert" tuition to improve (and rectify??) my flying skills. I live in the Midlands and so I'm looking for someone who is, say, no more than a one hour (or so) drive away. I would be happy to pay for the right level of tuition.

I have trawled various forums etc and all I could find was mention of, and I quote, "Colin Chapman, who runs Midlands Flight Training, has two sites available for tuition, both in Northamptonshire. Tuition is normally charged at £25 per hour and you can use your own model or one of Colin's models. You can get in touch with Colin on 07711 963939." I have tried to contact him but the number rings out but is never answered! If anyone knows whether Colin is still around please let me know.

Are there any other similar R/C Flying Training Services available in the "Midlands" area?

Last year I bought a second hand Jiant Jabberwock which I plan to get airbourne this season.

 

I have been trying to find out more about it but google doesn't gome up with much.  Is the model based on a full size plane?  If so I would like to find out more, and more about the heritage of the model.

 

Can you help please?

 

Regards

Hi Flanker,

 Great news, thanks.  I was concerned since RCV state that the fuel MUST have some castor in it - I already have some Coolpower Fuel which is 10% and fully synthetic oil.  Based on what you say I shall now confidently try that.

 Thanks for taking the time to reply

regards

 Geoff

Hi Flanker,

 I have a new 58CD which I have put in a Hype 3d which I am close to completing.  What fuel do you use with your 58DC?

Thanks Timbo, I'll leave well alone for now me thinks.

[FPS131s servos]

Hi Timbo,

Many thanks for prompt reply.  I have done as you suggest, except for taking the tops off. 

Pleased to report that I was able to say for each - "the force is strong with this one".

Would you still recommend a visual inspection of the insides?

Regards

[FPS131s servos]

Hello,

I have recently bought second hand a 1/4 scale cub which appears not to have been flown for some time.

It is fitted with Futaba FPS131s servos - can anyone give me any information on these servos please?

I have tried the Futaba web site but nothing on there.

Thanks

Geoff.

Apparently it is definately off - too water logged.

Hi David,

Checked there but nothing.

PS - just got your/ex WOT4 on charge ready to go up to the field soon. It flies like a dream, many thanks again.

Hi

I have heard a rumour that the LMA show at Catton Hall planned for 18 and 19 August has been cancelled.

Can anyone confirm / deny - the latter would be great news.
