Hi Ron, You're doing well with the build with excellent photos, I bought mine a week ago and its a two seat version. I'm bit of a slow builder with added time constraints through work. Anyway I'm hoping to lighten the airframe where I can such as making lightening holes in the ply fuselage sides and anywhere, where I could make holes without compromising strength, also planning to install a carbon tube in the wing and in the tail to give me a peace of mind. And to power it, I'm thinking petrol perhaps OS GT22.

Hi, I rang BMFA office this afternoon highlighting the problem and they said that, yes there is a problem and there're working on it. Mac

i was wondering whether this spacer came with the kit.

Hi All, just a quick question regarding the AW XL, in the instruction booklet its says to centralise the fuel tank with a 'spacer' in the firewall. Now i'm sure if I should have had one with the kit. Anybody come across this and what method did you guys use. Thanks.

Hi, it makes sense now how the supplied arm fits. I'm just wait on anti vibration mounts to arrive. Thanks for the photo.

Hi Rich2, I'm glad your're happy with it, gives me confidence about the same purchase I made with chinoeuk2010. Only one thing I wasn't sure about is how the throttle arm is connected for the servo. I would appreciate if you could post a pic of your setup. Thanks Mac

Hi all, Just wanted to know if any of you guys have reduced the length of the HT lead from the ignition module to the spark plug and what do you think of a IBEC unit (ignition battery elimination circuit). Thanks Mac

I know that Hitec HT55835 HTS has a unit but its only exclusively for their telemetry module. It would be good if we could monitor fuel level, just like the elecy boys/gals can tell how much they have in their battery packs. This is not to say that im jealous... Mac

I'm using messy smelly liquid as you put it, but also in the process of converting to petrol. Not too keen on elecy.... but that's just my preference. Mac

Hi all, Yes that's true as I've also became a rightful owner of a DX9 in Feb, and I updated everything before playing around with the menu. To be honest i had converted my JR10x to 2.4Ghz and use spektrum receivers so rather than upgrading to the new JR, since I've had no problems with the spektrum (touch wood!!) it only made sense for me to go for this DX9. I've yet to fly it and fairly new to this radio. I have also purchased the telemetry module which am going to install in my acro wot to give me battery info. Does anybody know if there is a way of monitoring the fuel level with this module,.....or is that a different thread... Mac

Ok thanks for your time and giving me the confidence. Mac

Thanks for the reply but can you clarify what the insulator block is...- is it the black block that is between the engine and the carb? so when I undid the two hex screws the whole carb and the black block came off as one and I turned it 180 and screwed it back on.

Hi all, Just a quick question on a dle35 ra, would I have an issue running the engine if I turned the carb 180 degrees, this is purely because the throttle control rod can have a straight run from the servo arm. Any thoughts? Mac

Thanks for your input.

well im ordering them tomorrow.

sorry yes that was a typo error should have been 7954, my style of flying would be normal aerobatics and a couple of 3D manoeuvres added in. with a Sbach you have to!!

Hi Guys, just want you pick your brains a bit, I have a Sbach 30cc and is going to be powered by a 35cc, so my thinking is would a hi tech 5685 be fine on each aileron and one each on elevator and a 5754 on rudder. These are 7.4v so im intending to run them through HK powerbox. The two lipos will be 7.4v 2650 mAh. What you you guys think? Mac

Please count me in. Regards Mac.

Hi, i too have bought some eneloop batteries(sanyo XX 2450mAh) from which i made two 6v Rx packs and one Tx pack, i've got a fusion LX60B pro, what i need to know is what delta peak setting do i dial in the charger and at what rate do i charge? Hope you guys can help. Regards Mac.

Hi, Can anybody advise, i have a overlander 5000mAh lipo 14.8v 25c, i havent had much use of it say i've charged and balanced it about 4-5 times, but now its showing signs of slight swelling, should i be worried about it. I also have other lipos which i have charged and balanced number of times and they look normal compared to the 5000mAh. I've kept the lipo in a tin at the back of the garden just in case. Thanks Mac

Hi everyone, Maiden my acro the other day and i found that i needed left aileron trim but once it was trimmed it flew beautifully, incidently mine is powered with OS46 AX seems to fly effortlessly, however i did find the wing bolts didnt have enough 'bite' when tighten, so i didnt do any fancy stuff 'just in case', not happy with the bolts i carefully removed the blind nuts and replaced them with some decent ones. i dont know if anybody have come across this. Waiting for some decent weather now. Mac

hi, Don't mind anything as long as i win something.

So how would i go about doing that?

Hi all, I too have a problem if anybody can recognise it, and that is when i put a prop on the motor it oscillates and when i remove the prop the motor runs fine. So what is happening if anyone can help. My motor is a inrunner and the esc is MY30 bec. if that helps. Thanks Mac.

Hi Guys and Gals, i've decided to go for the Hanger 9 version and placed an order for one, so hopefully i should get a big box at the end of the week. I've also been told that the zenoah G23 is an ideal power for the eagle so we wait and see. Mac.
