Could you let us in on your favourite ?. Tried almonds of stuff. The comments about Humbrol are interesting. If I had a good air fed mask system I would use epoxy. Sprayed full size aeroplanes with epoxy.

Thanks you Steve; I didn't realise this. If in doubt , read the instructions...….

Thanks steve, I have the manual, but how do I enter the programme mode to change something ??. Once the ESC is in the model and set, how do you get back into programming ??? Cheers

I did this for my latest. Unless I did something wrong, it took literally eight (8) brush coats to get a good colour on the model. It was over white tissue doped onto balsa. Maybe I should have put a dark primer on first, Then the olive drab b and q emulsion. I am going back to Humbrol. however expensive it is. Never had a problem with Humbrol.

I don't have a programme card and I'm not sure what I set the low voltage cut off too. The question is this: when my 4s gets down to about storage voltage (15 .4 ish), you cannot throttle up any more. So how do I start again as if it's the first set up on this model ??. Motor is 3540 thumped running a 12 by 6 all leccy prop.

Just finishing a Flair SE5a, modded for sparks. My first one weighed in at a tad over 5lbs and had an OS52 and is lovely. This one has a motor I've propped for 700 watts on 4S. About one horse, which is what the OS was putting out. Makes sense or ??. Maurice

Hope this isn't the end. Wanted a Pup, teach me not to wait about dithering. What with Brexit, Covid and now Balsa problem, seems like the perfect Aeromodellers storm. Anyone know the owner, and is it goodbye or ??

Feeling melancholy tonight: isn't it sad how we have to rely on A to contact B who knows someone who knows C and can make a copy of a copy etc etc. I think the 1970s/80s were the hiatus for the hobby. Certainly for Aeromodellers as opposed to fliers. -

Just a thought, I want to buy A LASER 70, but if I mount it upright, isnt the carb fuel inlet to high for the fuel level ? Conversely will it flood if I invert the engine, Its going in a Panic ?? Maurice Edited By Martin Harris on 19/12/2020 17:45:33
