  1. I need an extension for the above, I have seen OS male to male (that is required gender) extensions but do not know if the thread is the same. Has anyone any knowledge ?
  2. Pringles and a bit of cling film works a treat, just eat the pringles first.
  3. Thanks for letting us know of cancelled event John. After i had loaded up as well. Will be at the next one.
  4. Nought wrong with Radiomaster TX. Whilst 4 in 1 module gives u opportunity to use Spektrum RX and even program them with Edge Tx. ELRS is alsoban option for the TX whether internal or external. Switches are cheap to replace and can be done yourself.
  5. I just used the 6x in the end and adjusted the control arms physicaly
  6. One servo in each wing running off Ail channel and Aux 1 channel. The servos were centred using the the little gadget designed for that purpose. All hooked up and turn transmitter on, sticks all centred, RX turned on, wing servos then leap in opposite directions! It has occurred to me that maybe I should check calibration on the DX9, but is doenst seem to happen on another model it is hooked up too. Any suggestions, kindly please
  7. The Speed Air is now fixed Surprised how little glue there was on it originally. However decanting fuel into flight box fuel container. Left cap off main container and some local cat hurtled over fence and knocked it over. Shhheeesh atleast it will kill the weeds on the patio. And if i can find a loose slab the cat will find a new home!!!
  8. We all do it, i think, dont we?. Carrying airframe back to wards shed,it was cradled in flight box. I knewi had to be careful but caught tailplane on corner of house as giing diwn the side. Yep..ah well not to bad

    O rings

    Given the demise of our i.c. engine repairs and suppliers, I am looking to replace needle valve O ring on SC52fs. I do have a spare Irvine O ring but am curious to know whether to purchase a size assortment box off Amazon. I assume that at least a couple will fit varying engines.
  12. Mower lol. No sadly. It does however have a scrapper made from copper, from a water tank.
  13. Yes I know it won't fly but it was made by a modeller who flies an assortment of planes. Made between 1965 and 1975 it is R/C and was made from pics scaled down. The material is old metal oil cans, the seat is wood and the tracks aluminium sheet milled to size. The track securing links, old brass curtain hooks (those of a certain age will remember). The owner and his brother, who aided the building, both used to drive these for a living. Just thought some appreciation of the skill involved as we often rightly praise our scale modellers.
  14. I gave the Ambulance Service What 3 Words (W3W) and the OS grid reference together with gate code. The members have been told to quite the club name in full when making contact so the Service can retrieve the info from their system. All that same info is in the club hut. Hopefully we may not have to use it.
  15. Tell you what why dont we all pay a little extra! Times are changing at least we still have a physical magazine.
  16. There you go, off with cycle clips.
  17. Its Go for lift off And gentle touchdown
  18. My Speed Air, which is powered by an SC52F and been sat in my garage for well over 18 months, had an outing today. Started first touch and had it in the air moments later. No trim needed. Second flight went dead stick but got it down ok, just bent the front u/c leg. The fuel has been sat in the garage for the same time, but I have too say I tend to keep it and use it and also been known to mix it so I can keep the containers topped up. Run it at home, after straightening the u/c leg and its fine. So back tomorrow.
  19. AS promised, the Acoustic Survey cost £1800 in 2022.
  20. I will get the invoice out when im home at the weekend and let you know
  21. In order to aid our planni g application for our field, given the injectors were a bit of a pain, we prempted the noise issue. We paid for an acoustic survey and had the report written up and included in the application. The testing involved the DoE recommendation, aligned with the BMFA test and the advice of the chap conducting it. The report was revealed no problems and negated that particular objection. We used an assortment of models to give the best parameter range.
  22. Welcome, this is agrand place. Helpfull, funny and can be tolerant too.
  23. It wasnt him, he only blew the bloody doors off! By the way i didnt know he had a dog!
  24. I have to agree was a good series. Martin Johnson's comment was also correct, would have preferred a closer cont3st too judge the England performance.
