  1. Well, finally I got back to the Whirlwind, been lots of sanding and filling and of course dust, Deluxe Ez-kote and thin F/g has been applied, but doing the flying surfaces was a messy, fiddly job, great job on the flat and larger surfaces, anyway 'tis done and a thin coat of primer added. NOW to the U/C doors, earlier I tried doing them on the original sacrificing nacelles, but when done they didn't quite match up, so I'll redo them on the model so until next time ?????
  2. Martin, looks great, what did you use to fasten the U/C fairing with??? Barry​       Edited By A.A. Barry on 18/09/2015 01:04:26
  3. Malcolm thanks for the reply, I possibly havn.t explained my questions clear enough, I am wishing to use the SBus ports on my R7008sb, but I am not sure what is needed to purchase and "set up" the whole thing, the Futaba book is not very comprehensive, and your manual dosn't go through that process, perhaps in some future update that could be added. There is so much in this TX that it becomes mind boggling,, for us older ones Cheers Barry
  4. Info on setting up SB with a 7008sb Now I'm not sure about this SB thingo , I see that there are 2 SB ports on the RX, one for SB HV servo's and the other for telemetary sensors How do I go about using SB1 port to add servo numbers to the RX e.g. # ch 8 to 14 on the TX?? All help most appreciated Cheers BArry
  5. Tailwheel retract and doors have always been problems for me, but I think I've got this one in hand now, after hrs of trial and error. I first tried push rods and bell cranks but the effort to move the doors required was just too much. the wheel itself is air down, spring up/out, I finally sprang on the idea of fishing trace instead of rods, and little rollers to divert the direction of the trace, tied into the door, with fine piano wire torsion bar springs, it worked a treat
  6. Thx Malcolm , that's awesome, that would have taken me weeks to work out, even with your book Cheers Barry
  7. Cymaz, ya can almost buy a s/h 9c for the same amount. Malcolm, my idea in regards to the 4 flaps is precautionary, I'm no sure what effect these flaps will affect the model on landing, if I use 2 switches I can control the process, any help would be very grateful. I want to set the inner flaps to SD at 15% step 1 and 80% step 2, the same %'s for the outer flaps on SA???? Yep for the moment I've assigned DG 1 and 2 to the slider switches, thanks I'll check my Kindle account for update capabilities Cheers Barry
  8. Thanks Malcom, Ahhh, at least I know now, can they be turn off or reassigned to a different switch?? Iv'e had a fiddle but they stayed put. Will you be putting another addition of the book out soon.??? I am setting up a 4 flap model, ( He-100 ) is it possible to have the 2 outer ones on 1 channel with 2 rates and the inner ones on another, with 2 rates ????? Thanks you are a great help Barry.
  9. Sorry my eyes have decieved me ... SR switch is actually SA Barry
  10. Can someone inform me as to what DG1 and DG2 stand for and what do they do? the little icons on the Servo page, switch on and off from SD and SR the Futaba manual dosn't say anything about them, I have your book Malcom, but I am hoping that an answer from here will be quicker than hours locating any info on Kindle Cheers Barry
  11. Thats really arwful news, glad to hear all is OK Cheers Barry
