  1. I have been using the 7805 for years on 7.2v car sticks, and 2s and the occasional 3s ( glider) for my normal size planes, ie futaba std servos. Never a problem.
  2. A couple of things, the silicone tube on the exhaust, maybe it won't break up under the heat, but a 52 four stroke gives out very little noise with its small original silencer delivered with the engine, but maybe I have it wrong, an over silenced engine and a long range tank, maybe you are going to fly it for 24, ie overnight and not to wake up the locals. I epoxy tooth picks around those firewall ply bits they aren't properly glued in the first place. Nice work.
  3. The only crashes at our club due to glasses, is too many of them filled with Beer, whisky, Pastis and wine.🤣
  4. My Kwik fly doesn't do any of that, maybe because I built it properly, It flies like it should with a proper glow engine, maybe, just maybe, it's the small about of castor in the fuel. Sorry, I couldn't resist it.🤣
  5. Why ?, he is only going to use it to get back to flying with any luck 2/3 week ends so if he can spend £1000 on a radio what's £50 for a buddy box, I teach all sorts at the club, and generous club members donated to me a Futaba 6 Ex and a 6 Exhp, last one still unused is the Align T6 ( rebadged Futaba) given to me after it was taken to pieces, broken and buttons lost. Surely someone in his club can lend him a radio for a few flights.
  6. Joking ,, 617 are around 50€ second hand one 6014 all over 100€ ! 5 here from 100 to 125€. Here's your rx chart
  7. Plenty of room in our club, you are more than welcome to join.
  8. There you go, just ask,, https://outerzone.co.uk/plan_details.asp?ID=6407
  9. I haven't found a proper Futaba one here in france for over 10 years, just rubbish ones.
  10. Only one left in our 46 members club ! Why change a good radio, a second hand simple Futaba as a buddy box can be bought for less than 50€, you shouldn't need it for long, and you can always sell it on, or as I do keep a couple of hill soarers on it.
