John, did you find your flying field in Melaca. I was there for three years 2007, 2008 and 2009 flew regularly. Most of my stuff I either brought out from the UK or imported from Singapore - great place for a week end break. 5 Model shops in one building. Briliant. Great flying but they are not hot on safety. If you loose a model it is in the sea or in the jungle. Have fun.

RDS...Fulcrum..... used it??
Galleyman replied to Danny Fenton's topic in Building from Traditional Kits and Plans
Hi Danny, how about a bit on flaps? how do you make half flaps as you show on your video? How are they hinged? What materials do you use? What size servo's etc.? How do you hide the control mechanism for elevator and rudders? Thanks, John. -

Galleyman replied to Danny Fenton's topic in Building from Traditional Kits and Plans
Hi Danny, thanks for detailed response. Assuming the length of the torque rod is max 65mm from hinge line to top hat, would a 2mm rod be a good starting point? Just trying to get a handle on a place to start. I have a 47" wingspan F4U Corsair that I have just started to build that I will try this system on before I get committed to the same system in the Hurricane. Re cockpits, yes, yes and yes Thanks Danny, great talking to you, John @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css); -

Hi Danny, Great article for starters. Well done. Could you give me some more info on the top hats and the torque rod? On your video you indicated that the torque rod you had used was too small, so how do you gauge (no pun intended) the size of wire required? Lastly could you do an article on cockpits and how you make them look realistic? Thanks again, John @import url(http://www.modelflying.co.uk/CuteEditor_Files/Style/SyntaxHighlighter.css);@import url(/CuteEditor_Files/public_forums.css);
