Hi Phil Sebart parts Sean 07583003723

Hi Guys does anybody know how many members are currently in this club? Many Thanks Sean.

Hi, has anybody fitted a 4 stroke engine into this model? If so what make? any tips & advice would be great fully received👍 Also if I'm not pushing my luck any views on Robostruts? Thanks in advance. Bosley.

Hi to all & thanks for any help 🙏 I have just purchased an Align starter that will need to be charged. My questions? What would be the best charger bearing in mind I will be buying an electric aeroplane next year & would need it to also charge the lipos for this! Finally I would sooner spend a reasonable amount of money & buy something that would last & cater for more than I need at the moment & possibly future proof as much as you can I guess🙄 Preference to make would be good also. Thanks again Sean.

Hi to all, can anybody advise me on what Piper Cub to buy, make etc. I want it to be electric, as big as possible so easier to see in the air & ARTF. Thanks in advance Sean.

Thank you for all your help & views. Kind regards Sean.

Hi, I am fitting an OS GT33 engine to my Black Horse Jodel Robin DR400 ARF! Has anybody already done this? or know the way of fitting the throttle cable? The problem I have is as follows! The horn on the throttle linkage, wants to be pulled from the front of the model! If I turn the horn 180 degrees, it will rub on the engine mounting bolt sleeve! The easiest way to explain is like towing a car with a rope, you can pull the car with the rope, but not push it! The model comes with a cable & I have used the recommended engine! Any ideas would be great fully received. Sean.

Hi to you all, can anybody help me with this? Would you give me your views on what servo`s to fit to my DR400 Ripmax Jodel Robin. It will not be used for towing so that is one less! The manual states 9 x standard high torque servo`s! Do I use different types of speed / output for steering, throttle, choke & flaps? Or should I use one type with the same output for example 9 x Hitec HS430BH which I can see a picture of in the manual! I am fitting a petrol OS 33GT engine with a choke! Is it possible to use an on & off switch for the choke servo? I would power this totally separate & would free up a radio channel if this is possible? I will link in other servo`s where possible with a "Y" lead, allowing me to use a 6 channel radio! So that's the plan any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Sean.

Hi to you all, at this ever helpful site. Would you give me your views on what servos to fit on this plane. I am not going to use it for tow that's one less. The manual states 9 x Standard High Torque Servo`s! Do I use different types for steering, throttle, choke & flaps? Or just one type with the same output for example 9 x Hitec HS430BH which I can see a picture of in the manual! I am fitting a petrol OS 33GT engine or gas as its known, with a choke! Is it possible to use an, on & off switch for the choke servo, so it frees up a channel, which I would wire & power independent to everything else? I will link in the servo`s where required with a "Y" lead, to hopefully use a six channel radio. Thank you in advance, all views greatly appreciated before I go & do the wrong thing!! Sean.

Yes that's the one!

I amazed with your response. It puts the Great back into Britain. I am really generally thankful to you all. I am not going to tow so I will do some linking! Thank you all again Sean.

Thank you Percy & everybody else, all excellent advise & knowledge. Sean.

Thank you all very much, the model is a Robin DR400 & is quoting 7 channels!! What do you think? RCM&E done a very good report & the article quotes 11 servos! Again any views would be appreciated. Many Thanks Sean.

HI to all, I have a Futaba 6EX-2.4GHZ Radio & have just purchased a new model that is stating that I need a 7 Channel Radio!! Do I need a new one or do I just need a & new receiver to go with my Futaba. Any advise would be a great help. Many Thanks Sean.

Hi to all, could anybody give me there view on what engine they would fit to a Robin DR400.(Black Horse) Kind regards Sean.
