Evening does anyone know what covering is used on a wot 4 extreme cheers

Cheers guys?

As per the title I'm after a tug tow line release I've had a look around but can't find anything, if anyone has seen anything let me know cheers.

CheeCheers everyone didn't realise they were cub wheels or that expensive?

Evening I've got some pneumatic wheels they've got goodyear 8.0 4 printed on them but I can't find anywhere that sells them. If anyone can point me in the right direction ?

Thanks for the replies its for a 4.4mtr wing span glider so I'm not sure if a smaller size would be suitable or if a bigger one will fit, I'll need to study the plan.

I'm after a Graupner 14mm steel bar & brass box 1000mm I'm strugling to find any. Any help of where to look appreciated.

So ive acquired a Top-flight P47D Thunderbolt gold edition kit at our clubs funfly / swap meet. The engine recommendations are .61-.90 cu 2 stroke or .91 - .120 cu 4 sroke so my question is will a enya 155 4c be too big for this Model if so what would you put in it cheers.

Ok I'm going to use a frsky Rb10 Pro on a 8 channel petrol plane, I've already got x2 overlander 7.4v 2200mah Rx batterys are these going to be sufficient????

Cheers John the tuggee is now sorted and in the process of setting the new tug up, I won't say his name but you know who it is (fuel problems)? anyway cheers

Real bad memory forgot I posted this thank you very much for the reply and link ?

Evening is there anyone who can tell me the cog for the farmhand 90 ?? Been doing a rebuild with no instructions.

He's already using one needing something bigger

OK posting this for a friend who is after a large 100+ inch wingspan plane to be used as a glider tug any recommendations suggestions links many thanks

My bixler flew fine straight out the box no nose weight etc for months, Here's the rub though while doing a club funfly she started to porpoise and turn where before she'd glide hands off, when checked over by several people and flown by them aswell weight had to be added to the wing and to the nose. WEIRD

The crease is in picture 2 with the left aileron uppermost left and the start of the center section bottom left

So after a little battery problem?‍♂️ can a veneered wing be repaired I'll add some pics, the fuze just needs a new bulkhead/firewall but I'm not sure on the wing. The veneer has crumpled in places and you can see where the wing has crumpled and compressed on impact thoughts please

OK so a update Tested the battery on the bench while putting a right aileron turn in with slight up elevator to simulate the turn the battery dips to bellow 3v ( below the recommended min volts) so with the possibility of a stall in the turn also put into the equation and the frantic inputs put in by me would of kept the volts below 3v As for the reason the battery was low I'm afraid pilot error is the cause on that point not doing pre flight checks properly ?‍♂️

I did a range test later when I got home battery started at 4.5v with just waggling the elevator probably ten times as I walked to the end of my road the voltage had dropped to 4.2v I think it was

OK I'll add some more info flyin ic engine 5 servo's including throttle. I'm trying to to work out what caused it to crash I went from down wind into wind into a landing approach so I either stalled it or the battery was the cause, I was using a 5 cell ni-mh rx pack 6v After crashing with no control the battery was at 4.5v or bellow. As I'm still abit nervous with ic I opted for a very long approach.

OK silly question alert? Does the rx battery affect range in any way ??

This is mine layed out awaiting covering

OK a easy question ? should the wingtips be sheeted in balsa or open I'm not sure as model was bought second/third hand and uncovered

I'm so sorry I totally forgot about this thread. I finally sorted out the elevator mount out by soaking in acetone, the rest was just finishing off covering etc

The engine that came with it is a crrc thor 45 I think and definitely over 7.5kg
