  1. 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.
  2. Likewise, could only log in from the Forum page. And for some reason (probably funny here), the new style forum doesn't like my ipad...... Maury
  3. Thanks you Steve; I didn't realise this. If in doubt , read the instructions...….
  4. 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
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. Hi have been running four strokes on 15% synthetic 5% nitro for years. Cheers
  8. I have been using those for yeats. Just like full size practice. Maurice
  9. 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

  11. Balsa ?, Shops ?? Oh yes, I remember, back in the good old days of months ago.........
  12. I have been running everything from Cox .020c.f. to fill size Pratt and Whitney Gas turbines ( it was part of my job). Additive 1. Correct fuel. Additive 2. Manufacturers operating procedure adhered to. Additive 3. A brain. No probs.😃
  13. Woke up and see the banner now........ I will wait and see. Maury
  14. 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 ??
  15. 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.
  16. Dvds, aeroplane books, Malt Whiskey, new I pad and a Panic kit, Overlander 4s lipo, various shirts, socks. My family are very Lavish and I'm very lucky. Merry Christmas and a better new year people. Maurice
  17. How do you know you have won ? like I said, couldn't win a raffle if I bought the only ticket..... merry Christmas to all, in whatever tier you are. Maurice
  18. Oh well, I couldn't win a raffle of there was just one ticket and I bought it... A waste of time but Yes Please.
  19. For a £1000 annual licence I would expect annual usage; not 6 months. Flown there myself many moons ago. Near Hatchet Pond. maurice
  20. Can somebody tell me if my club has to pay income tax on things they sell to members ? Club transfers or donated model gear or whatever Cheers
  21. 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
