  1. Erfolg, our flying field is located in the port of Rotterdam. the largest port in Europe. We are surrounded by water, but our flying field is located in a nature reserve. on a headland. on one side 'de nieuwe waterweg' and on the other side 'het calandkanaal'. it is where the Meuse flows into the North Sea. so we have to cope with a lot of wind.

    Thanks Paul ( Geelhoed ) 

     

    For the info on the engine mount. It could save a lot of faffing around when the time comes. How much of the cowl needs to be cut away to facilitate the engine ?

     

    Cheers

    only the one at the bottom and a small hole at the top to put a screwdriver through if you need to adjust the engine. Without the hood, run in the engine according to the instructions. With the cowl on you will have to adjust a bit. You'll be flying in no time. Install servo just behind the firewall. much better.

  3. i have the DLE 20 ra on my skybolt. there's a review in august nr 2016. you have to shorten the motormount. mine is still flying(with a few crashes, motor off means straight down... with a biplane). your cowl will fit perfectly, i think its a about 3cm you have to cut off. otherwise the cowl wont fit.

     

    greetings Paul

  4. Hi Tosh, i am using a 6s 5000 lipo and 80A ESC, no ubec. the husky weighs 5,3 kg and the prop is a 16x8.

    after 4 flights i have set my timer on 5.30 min. i have enough power for a nice climb and it flies a big looping. roll rate is pretty low🤪 nice lazy eights and stall turns.

    the big 5inch wheels are perfect on this plane. I didn't used the flaps yet, you dont need them for landing. the next time a give it a try, it is a STOL plane.

  5. the digital archive was quite large at first, but I see that it only goes until 2014. is this still being added? for me a digital archive is interesting as it goes way back...

    Pity, I thought it sounded too easy ?

     

    Which one are you having problems with, Forum or Homepage, or is it both?

    I know it works OK with Firefox on the Forum because that is what I use, so perhaps it is some local setting in your Firefox. Does it stay logged in OK with other forums?

     

    I don't have any answers, but a bit more information might trigger some ideas from someone else.

     

    Dick

    yep all other forums or sites stay logged in. and no difference with both.

    i am not logging out when leaving site or forum.

    as far as i can see firefox settings are still the same...
