Now I will use "give it some welly" everytime I will have the chance to, but still I don't know how "give it the big one" originates.. I love to learn, could you please enlighten me? have a nice weekend everyone!

ahaha, many thanks everyone!

Hi Jon, thanks for you suggestions. I'm not a native English speaker so sometimes I miss something.. what do you mean with "give it some welly"? :-D

Hi Flight1, many thanks for the link and the infos!

Hello folks I just bought an SC 30 FS from the big auction site. It comes with no box, no instructions, no tools. Could some good soul tell me which tools would I have gotten in the box with a brand new engine? And maybe let me have a scan of the instructions? Also - I know that there are MkI and MkII of this engine, how can I tell one from the other? Many thanks!

Hi Ton! Happy to see you working on the G.50 again! Thanks for the updates! Andrea

Hi Ton thanks for the HL81 profile file! I saw your models on rbckits - what's the size and weight of those models? I'm surely gonna buy one.. I suppose they fly the same with no particular reasons to choose the 190 or the P51 if not for personal preferences, right? have a nice week! A.

thanks for the advice about the e-mail address. I am trying to edit my previous post to delete my address but I still didn't find a way to edit my posta vere. maybe it's because I am from my phone.. I'll try later from the PC!

Hi again Ton yeah I would really appreciate getting the HL81 profile - my email is [email protected] may I ask you also which incidence angle did you use for the wing? I was going to go with a NACA 2415 with 3° positive incidence at the wing root and 2° washout at the wingtips.. I would like that small G50 to be able to fly low and close without tipstalling.. By the way, I love NL, have many friends there and I am proud member of the Vereniging Eigenaren Houten Huismanboten club with my '37 "Buizerd"

Yeas Bob, nice Macchi, thanks for modelling an Italian airplane

Hi Ton! thanks for your reply which profile HL81 is? the only references about such profile I can find on the web direct to your works again.. is this profile your personal design? The most similar profile name I found is HL813353 on the Profili2 website - **LINK** - is it that? I am asking because I am now designing myself a small G50 - 1:24, 45 cm wingspan, to be powered with the gear from an Eflite UMX Sbach 3D, 75 g target AUW - and I have to decide the airfoil. I know airfoil doesn't matter that much at such small size so I am looking for one that looks good on the plane and your model looks damn good have a nice Sunday everyone! Andrea

Hi Ton! how is your G 50 going? Can I ask you which airfoil profile (or profiles) did you choose? Andrea
