Carb and needle from the 40: same as 46

No numbers but this is the 46 carb with a needle from my 40 that fits bith

Ooh thanks John I will check. I have a matching needle from my 40 Jetstream carbs which fits the 46 so I can send pics of what I'm after.

Thanks for that. Anyone know if the Jetstream carbs on the Irvine 36 and 39 models were the same as my 46 or at least use the same needle valve as I can find a sacrificial engine in those sizes for a needle for the 46?

Seems difficult to find parts for these now. I just need a couple of exhaust screws something like m2 x 30mm?? Can an engine guru please advise. Also my 46 mk 111 is missing a main needle. Midland Helicopters have one called a 40C. Is that it? Thanks for advice

Thanks for those tips I'm now able to make my own letters and logod

I want to be able to print large size letters in a variety of fonts and styles to use to cut my own model names etc from fabric or film. I used to be able to do this easily with Wordart but now I don't have access to word and don't want to pay MS for it. There must be a simple free app that does it and allows me to size the letters before printing but all I can find is online gimmicky types. Any ideas please?

I've found some suitable cheap 1£ per metre x 1.5m width polyester lining fabric which is as light as my original nylon. It's Barbie colour unfortunately! But I've found it's easy to go from pink to red, purple or even blue. Small areas I lay out on a glass sheet and use thin water based fabric paints then predope ( I have yet to try pu and heat shrink). Larger areas like 2m x 1.5m I put in the old Crockpot and use Dylon dye.

£36 for 5 litres of fun or 12 cups of coffee in the company of the laptop warriors.

Any chance of a link to the lightest eBay polyester you use? The stuff I ordered is much heavier than traditional nylon.

Anyone used polyester dress lining on an open structure using water based pu rather than nitro cellulose. I'm not sure whether this combination has shrinking tendency sufficient to work?

Interesting in upgrading from analogue but I want to just look at the fpv feed occasionally whilst flying on a monitor not goggles . I can do this currently but is there a digital monitor / fpv receiver?

Similar to these Dubro 5 inch which seems to have a brass threaded inflation point.

I have these new wheels and tyres that are the right size for my KK Falcon but they appear to be inflatable but are they missing valves or how do you inflate them? Where a valve might be there's a threaded hole. Picture may show that.

I now have a spare crankshaft in a front housing with bearings which I assume is from a 75 or maybe a 70?
