Argos or Screwfix catalogue, mix epoxy throw page away

it sounds o.k Paul all I can suggest is set main needle first, then adjust slow running needle 1/8 at a time if revs drop at tickover when you remove glow, it means slow running is rich (turn needle in) also is your fuel o.k.? is possible to buy a bad gallon I've never had to use an onboard glow yet is your tank vibrating a lot, if so dampen it with foam

after a gallon of fuel it should be o.k. I use 5 or 10 bekra but yours should be fine O.S f plugs are what I use is your tank above carb level (centre of tank inline with carb)

what w/span and weight Jeff like colour scheme, stands out in any sky

dry n calm in Doncaster, nights drawing out. I can live with the cold it's dark nights that depress me test flew a seagull Yak that had been rebuilt. all he had was wings and tailplane. he built a new fuzz, after taking measurements from a pile of confetti. took 1 click of aileron to trim it.

pilot always bails out Lee, did it on all the 54's at our club absolutely agree with you cracking models, virtually impossible to stall flew mine on 120 4 stroke, lands like a trainer

thanks lads i'll give it a go on a 8x6 see how it go's only way to learn is get stuck in, at the price it's not worth returning. at worst i'll have a motor for sumat else. shall be yellow with black bands underneath, with state of our field of late a few lecky's is a good move. Ken a man's got to do what a man's got to do. ok pilgrim John Wayne... Pilgrim dept.

i'll kiss the mother in law and hope for the best

thanks fella's shall give it a try, I still think it's witchcraft though

I did Colin it was 1100kv from Ken just don't know what the extra 100kv means, only cheap so is no big problem. I fly them noisy messy things usually

nice day in Doncaster sunny and quite warm 4 members have bought Rare bears, go like the clappers only 1 left at home time, motors kept falling out

thanks Colin I asked for 1100kv as advised but 1000 turned up not sure if to return it, or if it will do

hello all bit of advice please, I;ve bought turnigy d2830/11 1000kv motor, 30 amp esc is this o.k., if so what size props needed cheers john

soz nasher also check pushrods line up nicely with servo's if they are a bit out give em a tweak

touch top of servo's pushrods its usually a bit of pressure from linkage

I think its a good thing, pay tax, insurance, mot you'll be o.k some have abused it for years, time it was sorted will be some errors, but its better than present system. we don't let folk fly at clubs without paying fee's and insurance drivers without tax n insurance deserve to lose the car

Sarah why not use that spare fuzz side to perfect your technique with tissue n dope also you could claim you built it on purpose

it make's me smile just looking at it never heard of peanut scale before, the seat is very good Sarah are you putting a pilot in? or just going to glue a peanut on

looks very good WF, nice to be different that's the beauty of kits enjoy your summer flying

fantastic looking sky FWAL

looking good Sarah soon be ready for covering

a refreshing read also Roy the folks in your area, are in safe hands

Posted by john melia 1 on 08/01/2014 10:49:11: thanks rich , after reading through some of the posts I have mixed feelings about this sbach at the moment , especially after that guy stripping all the covering off to find weak dodgy joints . then on the other hand theres that vid showing the sbach pulling out of a full throttle dive with full elevator and only the wing tube bending , showing that the joints and glueing must have been ok to survive that . whats your thought rich Edited By john melia 1 on 08/01/2014 10:50:35 few lads at our club have H.K. one with DLE 30 in it flys' great you'll love it

I think canopy looks good Baz bit of something on fins maybe, to help with side on view in flight well my plans ordered, see if I can start a pushy cat society in Donny

tim I live down the road in Doncaster, been in a few times. always get a warm welcome and quite a number of our members use the shop guess we're lucky in South Yorkshire.
