  2. Hi Ben no it's the 69" one lve got the fuz is epoxy the wings l have are made in foam and not really that good so l am making them using the Brian Taylor set ,got a really nice set of retracts ,more pics soon as I've remembered how to post them correctly !
    cheers ....... mark
  3. Hi geoffrey all depends on how true you want to make I guess ! . What "Mk" is yours as that narrows it down a lot !! some early mk's were half black and half white down the middle ,some duck egg blue, or sea grey, got any pics
  4. Hi all thanks guys for your replys as I've never used a dedicated retract servo I wasn't sure of there advantage !! you have all made good points cheers .one more from the daft question dept , would I need one servo per wheel ??? as in Dannys pic/vid ta very much ...... mark
  5. Hi all whilst I'm building my spitfire wing I'm now looking to install the retracts . I'm building the Brian Taylor 69" off the plan and using unitracts mechanical units , but what is the benefit of using a dedicated retract servo which isn't proportional against say a normal one which is any views on this would be great
    Cheers ....... Mark
  6. Hi to all ....
    I know I said lm not flying anymore but I could not resist one more build so .... lve had this Brian Taylor 69" wing span kit so I thought why not anyway the retracts I've got are not suitable so they are up for sale to anyone who wants them they are in the classifieds

  8. hi all .............
    nice build pics,,,,,,, whilst the issue of the double sided plans is being sorted .
    l think ive spotted another missing part in Peters build pics , it clearly shows there being 8 formers but on the mag plan there is only 7 / F2 with the rectangle cut out (in pics ) isnt there ,do you think it might show up on the wing plans !!!
     
    ps is there going to be a cnc kit for this and if so how £££
     
     
    cheers..................................marko
  9. Hi Dean if you look at the back of your engine that's where the needle valve would be with this set up , the blanking cap on the carb is there because the needle has been moved to the rear of the engine ,the feulmpipes seem to be attached to something ? your pics a bit dark so can not see what you have .
    Some people like the needle valve at the rear as it's keeps yer pinkies out of harms way !!!

    Hope I've helped. marko
  10. Hi all ...... I ordered a genesis pipe from just engines on Friday then got a phone call from Paul on Sat to confirm my order ,is my engine 2st or 4st l confirmed it was a 75 2st job done , today l had a call from Jenny to say that they are out of stock and would l like to wait until it is in stock .Jenny then offered me a manifold and pipe for the same price which l excepted . Now .... for a company that is upside down in moving down south ( long overdue ) a bit more east wouldnt have gone a miss ! I think that's very good service so l would like to thank just engines for possibly being one of the better shops out there !!!

  11. Hi doug would that not depend on the three variables ........
    weight
    Drag
    and thrust
    give us some more info in which plane you have got , high wing , low wing . what type of plane , pics are nice
    so as for your question any tank will give you ten mins of flight time , but it could be a question of " how do you want to fly"???

  12. Hi Danny that is cheep l personally wouldn't use SP as l can get west from work
    I've now started my build on my spit and started with the tail end first but l can't add any pics yet , lm offline on the main computer . The centre section on the BT wing is different to mine so l will have to make some changes but I'm not expecting that to change the incidence , what do you think , can two designs mate together

    .................'marko
  13. Hi Danny looking great . I'm looking at your tins of resin it clearly says west systems but you are referring to it as SP ?
    as for your pumps , the data sheet says tomremove the pumps if your not going to use the resin for sometime as air could pass back down the tube into the tin and then the resin will thicken but that willmtake some time , the most that will
    happen whilst your building is the nozzle tip will get a little bit snotty !

    nice build ........ marko
  14. hi Danny your not leaving the peel ply on are you ??? lm not sure about the Finish would be any better than the cloth you are going to yes to skin with ! lm only going to be using the BT 69.5 wings, and the aft end parts only ,and l will have to mate it to the glass fuzz , it's going to be the mk1 b which as there is only 1 left in the world it's a nice fitting tribute that it will fly again

    ............... Marko
    Ps l will do a build blog with pics
  15. hi Danny that looks so good , l bought the BT cnc kit in the end so much better than I could do ! I hope to start mine soon . you mentioned using peel ply ? the force needed to remove it might pull the balsa fibres apart under the glass skin !if you pul it l to soon whilst it's still green it hasn't done it's job of soaking up the access resin , can you not just dab with kitchen roll . l only say this as I wouldnt want to see you get this far and it go wrong , if you still want to have a go I've got some you can have !!!
