Super sixty
Peter Wood replied to edwards flyboy's topic in Building from Traditional Kits and Plans
There are some snakes I didn't know existed, but I haven't found any small round tanks. I have sent quite a few queries through distributors, forums, model shops and friend. I would like help if someone knows the answer. Peter -
Super sixty
Peter Wood replied to edwards flyboy's topic in Building from Traditional Kits and Plans
Hi Steve I bought the kit but had trouble withe the pushrods cating on the fuz and not sure how to make them so they are not to floppy and don't catch. I bought the kit but it did not have the tank, as it is a round one. I tried the slightly larger square one, which was too large. Perhaps you can make me an offer. I live in Milton Keynes Peter -
It has arrived and been built. ALthough advised how to finish, I have been waiting for my copy to arrive in the post( I notice the digital edition is on line), perhaps I should test fly it Pete

Just received Poly c, It looks good. It suggests covering with tissue, do I apply the tissue with poly c as if it were dope. Peter

I haven't tried an epoxy finish, is there some guidance. I remember making a polyester canoeand was able to add colour to the resin can I do that with epoxy. How do I do an epoxy finish?. What is a poly - c finish. Thanks about PSSA, but there was going to be a PSS day on Sunday at Ivinghoe, but forecast is max 6mph. PSSA events are much longer journey. Peter

I think easter eggs are now wrapped in cardboard rather than plastic packing. I have thought of covering the front completely with lightply and painting the center black. To make up the weight I intend using 2000 NiMH. I have been a bit concerned that a PSS model is a bit fast so as this is supposed to fly slowly, it should be alright. Peter

Thank you for that. I think I will use hs 55s. I have started the read and wonder what happens with the fan, as I am not fitting one, do i just leave a space or what. Pete

I have just ordered the green air mystere kit and wish to use it as a pss model. Am wondering what servos to use, and any other advice. I was very impressed at the fly electric article, which finally convinced me to buy. Peter

Posted by Timbo - Administrator on 04/04/2010 21:19:11: I did say the M60 would be the best bet, some posts back. However the OP chose the WT and then started asking questions about it...I merely answered the questions. Can't find the M60, who makes it and who sells it -
It has just arrived today. It seems ages since I last read one. Thanks Peter

I enjoy the mag but am upset that people can buy it at smiths before my copy arrives. Yet again I haven't received my April issue yet. Has it been posted Peter

Have you worked out how much depron to buy. My wife goes away for a few days soon and I would blike all bthe depron cut so I can put it together on the Kitchen table and work surfaces. I have a bell motor siting unused so I would like to use it. Hope it is right size, anyhow the author say it flies on 1/2 throttle. Peter
-
Sorryb no help but any idea how much 6mm depron is needed, as If I buy 5 sheets and need one more I would probably have to by another 5. Pete
