  1. Hello again Folks, Trying to get ideas to what material I can use that is suitable to use as glazing for the old bird, the UVs have done the best, it has become brittle and started to crack. Any ideas are welcome, I have trawled the Web with little success. Thanks gang.
  2. Hi Shep, Your offer of the upgrade download sounds great, if your happy please send. email is [email protected] thank you very much. Dave M
  3. Hi Folks, Managed to get a Phoenix RC Flight Simulator Version 3 for my laddie, there's a problem with the running of the program on Windows 8, anybody have any fixes to get it running. Program has loaded but can't get by the language selection page. A bit of a random question, but you never know. Thanks everybody. Dave M.
  4. Well she has been interesting to work on, even the wire operated rudder system. One thing that is a curiosity is how the wings were secured to the airframe, although there are wingspars forward and Aft, there is no obvious securing points to keep the wings from sliding on the spars. Needs to be considered how to put right. Portability if the wings are fixed could be an issue for sure.
  5. The aircraft came with the Merco, it's a traditional balsa wood build, the chap who passed it on has flown this aircraft successfully for a number of years. It has a large wing area, over 7ft although the coverings are in need of replacement eventually. Thankfully the engine is in good shape.
  6. Hi Martin, Still in the process of bringing her into the 21st century, fitting servos and such, but I'm sure the AUW shouldn't exceed 12lb.
  7. Cheers Everybody, Thanks for the tips, looks like a good source of knowledge to draw on out there. Will be Using this alot more. Thanks again. Dave MEdited By Dave Millard on 23/12/2018 18:00:31
  8. Hi Folks, Resurrecting a Piper J3, she’s an old bird but worth bringing back to life, I’m not familiar with an engine this old. I’m looking for any specs for the engine, especially the Glow Plug heat spec for this engine. It’s not been run for about 24 months, so some work required. Is there anybody outside here who can help? Dave M.
