I've got the CAA policy that I'm looking through at the moment and I can see that they would say that this is for financial gains rather than personal fun. I will look into this in more depth and go from there.

Evening Gents, 1) BEB I look forward to reading the article and rests from your testing. I have looked at the vulcan systems and they are a very nice piece of equipment that is on my radar for possibilities. I won't be doing this for payment this is more personal fun. 2) after doing a little more research I think the "optimistic" 5-10Kg is a bit much after watching the X9 lift 33KG. I think a more reasonable amount weight will be 1KG. The payload will be a mixture of paintballs and plastic pellets. Thank you all for your input so far

The best option would be sling mounted, if I'm honest Chris. Load wise I'm a part shareholder in an Airsoft site that is based in kent we have a 70 Acre site, with some very tall trees that this would have to clear. hopefully now i've explained MI6 won't be knocking. As for materials I can get Carbon Fibre and Aircraft grade Aluminium and Fibre Glass. I have been looking at design Ideas and with what I want it would be best to go with a X design as this would give me the clearance I need below. Edited By Tim Riddoch on 18/08/2014 19:41:01

Afternoon All, I am looking at traveling down the Multi-Rotor route and have a need for a Multi-Rotor that will need to cope with 1)5-10KG of weight for a 5 or so minute flight. 2)Be able to climb to around 30meters. These are my brief as of yet I havent looked at motors rotors or any electrics yet. I come from a Nitro fixed wing background so this is a whole new world for me and any Information and advice would be great. I look forward to hearing your replies Tim

The fuel has been in the tank for 2 weeks. I'm going to take the engine tank and fuel lines out today and and give them a good clean and see how i get on from there. Thanks for the help Steve Martin Eck I will give you an update later on today. all the best.

After a little investigation it looks as thought the fuel isnt going through. I have the engine in situ at the moment would it be easier to remove and then have a look? The fuel was in there for about 2 weeks. I think i might have to re work where the tank is and see how i get on. thanks for your help Gents i will give an update.

Have had the rocker cover off the Valves are moving freely tried a new Plug, drained the fuel out and have put new fuel in and still no life.

I can feel compression although i might take the rocker cover off and see if anything looks un-towards. tim

I have checked the fuel lines to make sure there are no kinks and have also replaced the Glow plug. the Glow starter is charged and glow plug works. I have primed the engine and nothing. If anyone has any Ideas I would appricate it. TIm
