  1. I am a newb and been looking a chargers. I have been looking at vids on line and most seem to have the "4 button" style programme/menu. The iSDT chargers to me look the most modern regards menu screen. they have a lot of models so if one fits into your usage needs have a good look on the vids of them being used. I will go iSDT for sure.
  2. I have calls from "BT INDIA" telling me my BT internet as been hi-jack,concidering I am with SKY! The last time I had time to spare so I kept them on the phone for 35 mins before I got bored stalling. called him some really choice names and he wasn't best pleased. They are really gullible when it comes to winding them up.

  4. Thanks Don, I was not sure if "boat" is classed as a swear word here : ) I will bung it on then,someone might fancy a change.
  5. I bought a wooden galleon kit sum time ago, way out my league. Can I advertise here being a boat?
  6. Its been on my SKY for ages,has good documentaries on lots of subjects.on my favs
  7. I loved JR radios until they went to the "plastic fantastic" robot style radios. never bought one since. With a bit of luck they might go back to a quality feel again.
  8. Posted by TartanMac on 14/03/2018 23:39:23: If you buy from EU you don't get charged if it is outside of EU and above £15 you get charged with the VAT and the handling fee. Maybe the sender wrote a value on the box. Royal mail charge £8 plus the 20% for her majesty 's government. I would let them keep it and contact the seller. Did you buy lots of 2p items ? The annoying thing here is, that the handling charge varies from courier company. I gavr up ordering from overseas due to this. I was once charged £14.80 handling from HK. and previous very similar order £3.40. both delivered by DHL. in my case`s there is no standard,which cant be right. I have received a order before and royal mail left a card saying what costs are and for me to collect. so I could of refused to accept the item and lose it. A friend got a parcel from DHL with no costs at all,UNTIL several weeks later when he got a demand for costs. how would that work if the cost was crazy and he did not want or afford to pay? it seems like it made hard on purpose
  9. There is a new van that runs on tap water ready to be released. it is waiting on the government to decide with colour dye to use for the water. This special dye will cost £7 to dye 1 gallon of tap water. Any dye not bought from government is illegal.
  10. I don't have much in the way of model shops nearby. I need a filler for balsa mainly. is there anything I can by from diy stores that will do the job?
  11. Very interesting thread Simon. I had a look because I am after finding something to build for the unexperienced. At first I thought I had found the kit until I see your issues. I realise "building" includes these issues and part of the hobby/enjoyment but don't these kits get built before they get released? Not everyone as the experience to fettle them.Another kit for me to avoid. Would love to find a good laser cut kit.
  12. Robert, It is the balsa built up wing kit. Second hand but box still sealed. Been told I can return it if not satisfied, so can not get fairer than that.
  13. Thanks, I will go with servo`s in each wing. wont be as clean looking perhaps but might make it easier build for me. I think my hardest part will be sorting out where to put removable hatch's and best way to mount the motor. Would it be best to utilise the engine bearers in standard position OR discard them and put new bulkhead in?
  14. Looking for a first build and there is not a great deal out there self build wise. After a search here Flair kits seem to be good and several blogs and tips here. Then found out Flair kits are no more! Anyhow just found a Cub J3 kit and bought it. While waiting for it to delivered I have been looking for build blogs OR previous questions. I am going to use electric for power and will look into that later.What I would like to know is the following. When I read posts on these older kits with one servo for Aileron its advised to use a servo in each wing. The threads I have seen on this kit build all use the single servo method. Is there a reason for this? is this just a cosmetic choice OR does this type of model not suit servos in each wing?
