  1. Hi Tim, I built the Vic Smeed "Madcap" and used thin cable ties to secure the u/c to the ply fuselage former. Once pulled tight and trimmed they are very unlikely to move but I did put a small amount of epoxy on each one just to be sure. My build blog is on here if you search "Madcap build" Cheers Dave p
  2. Still no sign of my Flyer I.d. anyone else still waiting ?
  3. I got mine from Lidl, it looks very similar to the Bosch model, and it does the job just fine.
  4. I'm a fan of Titebond aliphatic although it does take its time to set..
  5. I think you should be talking in Amps not mA ( milliamps) I believe that motor draws about 90A so I'd go for a 100A esc. Ther are more expert modellers on here who can give more precise recommendations. Regards Dave P
  6. Watching this with great interest 👍
  7. Hi DD, Are you a member of the Vjmc ? If not it would be worth while looking into it with the type of bike you are working on. 🙂
  8. I think I've got some in my garage, I'll check later and let you know.
  9. Hi Phil, no it's gen 1. Regards Dave P
  10. Looking good Martyn, one of my favourite aircraft. Very good build, I do like the all moving tailplane and the fact you're sticking to I.c.
  11. Hi Phil, I've got a DX8 that I don't use, with original battery and charger. I'm in Northampton.
  12. I also use an old door with plasterboard on top, works for me..
  13. Looks like a VW Variant, I had the estate version when I surfed 🏄‍♂️, good reliable motor.
  14. I've been watching this thread with interest, and have now also ordered the book ?
  15. Sarik hobbies have a plan for a 54" version £23.00
  16. Bank Holiday today ?
  17. All of my batteries are at storage charge until the day I want to use them. I then, when back from the field, put them back to storage charge again.
  18. I bought a batch of small plastic bottles with thin metal spouts from banggood, they are excellent for getting small amounts of glue in tight spaces. I'll see if I can upload a photo later.
  19. I've used that motor in one of my models, I replaced the grub screws with small bolts from Modelfixings.
  20. Andy Are you taking Tamsulosin? I find it helps Dave P
  21. Indeed I think this is a very interesting build, watching with great interest ?
  22. Yes that is a good price, I've not seen any Gold kits advertised under £140...
