  1. Hi Matty Well done sir, keep it going all the very best Tony J
  2. HI all Paul I hope thats not the case but will take a look. Gary This was suggested at the club which I duly did swap for a new one but not for a different type so there maybe scope in that Thankyou Martin Cooling, I hope will be good, as I am flying it without the cowl due to the trouble, it just make it eaiser to mess with. thanks for the other ideas as well Thanks to all for the replies lots to go at there. I will let you know how it all goes but maybe some time, as I have some repairing to do from the last flight
  3. Hi Jon Yes I have had a couple of different people adjust it but it still seems troublesome, and I am interested in what you have said about the prop . It is currently fitted with a 11x6 prop which as you say is what I generally fit to my 46 size engine so I will give a 12x5 a go and see what happens. Many thanks
  4. Hi all Hoping you maybe able to help. I have an acro wot low wing fitted with a 46 size two stroke. I bought this engine from new and has not had much use though is probably 12 months or more in age. The issue I am having is the model is relative fast, so once in the air I tend to throttle back to a more comfortable speed for me. this is fine for a while then it just deadsticks. it seems to transition fine on the ground from idle to full, if I leave it on idle it will eventually die unless I put some revs into it. any thoughts or suggestions welcome thank you all Regards Tony J
  5. Hi Toto Well that all sounded very encouraging. Sounds like a nice place, wish we had a club hut ah well cant have everthing so heres to you haveing more air time. regards. Tony S
  6. Hi Toto I have been reading all your threads and have enjoyed doing so. I shall follow this one with much interest and am sure you will do a splendid job. Good luck with the stick time and keep at it, as said by others it is a great hobby. Regards Tony J
  7. I too mostly stand behind the model, but have begun to do a few take offs from the piolts box recently, though not for any reason than thought i would give it a go .
  8. Thank you both Andy and Jonathan much appriciated.Those picutures you put up thankyou so much for that will help a lot. This really is a great bunch of people on here ?
  9. Hi all Can anyone please point me in the right direction , I want to know how to go about building a wing when the bottom of the ribs are not flat .if any one can suggest a build that would be worth looking at or a brief discription i would be most grateful many thanks in advance Tony J
  10. Hi all Happy new year to you. Over the christmas period i have been recovering a model that was long over due to be recovered, but it got me thinking as to what people are now using instead of the solar trim. I know that solar film alternatives are out there but are there any trim alterantives. I am also aware that there is still solar trim available but its choice is limited in colours so what do you use ? Kind regards Tony J
  11. Hi Tony H I too prefer IC over electric and agree with some of what you say though I think price increases are just a sign of the times at the moment ,all things seem to be on a upward trend. I worry that the noise issue maybe the eventual end of IC over electric but hopefully not for some time yet. I do love the sound of 4 strokes(but only have two in my small collection of planes), 3 two strokes and one electric .Will soon be adding another 2 stroke to my collection. Kind Regards Tony J
  12. Down the patch on a summers evening everything just so, then you do that (rare in my case) Perfect landing Kind Regards Tony S
  13. Yes please, and a Merry Christmas to all Kind regards Tony J
  14. Hi Nigel Second paragraph I bought an adaptor that allowed you to fit the socket from a three wire switch into it so it effectively became a charge socket on the air frame but as i said never got on with it . Cheers Tony J
