  1. my DX7 binds to a new receiver and works all chanels except throttal it also refuses to connect to any Rx it has already bound to.Help anyone???????????.
  2. Hi Andy, Thanks for that, Will contact him tomorrow.
  3. I am useing a 650watt motor 60amp esc and 4s lipo and need an extra 8"/200mm of wire to reach the hatch and cg on a pusher . where would i join it and what size wire.
  4. a dolly off a mountain !!!!!!!!!!!! DO'NT PANIC....working on it.
  5. Hi Denis,The undercarriage is not going to happen, I fly off of a very remote hills/mountain covered in gorse and long grass etc so hand launch is a must. belly landings are the norm with all leading edges spars strongly reinforced with carbon rods. thanks very much for your input & remarks. will try to work out how to get pics on this thing as the DRAGON evolves.
  6. Yes ground clearance is my main concern. it will be a jetish type rear wing 2 fin/ rudders NO UNDERCART so may have to fit some type of rear skids for prop protection. max prop size would be 10ins.
  7. mad winter project self design/build canard pusher static thrust is what i'm after as a starting point.
  8. Hi All, Can anyone tell me what sort of thrust i will get from a 9x8 prop on a Irvine 53 Mk 2.
  9. not sure what channel it was origanly used on and cant get it to rebind .may be easier to buy a new Rx.
  10. can i change the channel of a used Rx with my DX7 as i cant remember the channel it was origenaly set up to.
  11. thanks Nigel R. I will check the Weston link. ps you have got the wrong plane the TORTUGA -KR84 is on the microbirds.com and type in TORTUGA
  12. hope so as for the props, had a fight with a 20x8 a few years back-guess who won.
  13. hi guys the remote adjusting needle valve will be no prop, what has got me foxed at the moment is the exhaust to prop clearance.
  14. hi Nigel R. thanks for your reply, i went electric a few yrs ago so lost touch with the i.c. world, the engine (brand new) has been sitting in my shed all of this time. Not making exactly a flying wing but a star wars type twin fin long nose job. Will be making it up as i go along but loosly based on the KR84 TORTUGA Robodrone.
