  5. hi trevor, I bought this one and am quite happy with it. It has doubled in price since i bought mine and the picture does not show how compact it is. https://uk.banggood.com/MUSTOOL-X1-Pocket-6000-Counts-True-RMS-Clamp-Meter-AC-or-DC-VoltageandCurrent-Digital-Multimeter-Automatic-Digital-Meter-With-Square-Wave-Output--or-V-or-A-or-Diode-or-Frequency-or-Continuity-Test-p-1435699.
  6. great day out at Don valley, field was immaculate. Took 5 models and flew them all. This must be one of the friendliest clubs around. Thanks lads
  7. i agree, never had a problem and good delivery times.
  8. hi David, when i used to rewind full size 3 phase motors we used to get the old windings out by using an old wood chisel, or a hacking knife. we just used a mallet to cut a line down the front of the winding then peel it back and out. the first one was the hardest then the rest were easy. mike
  9. happy to come down if weather is good, nice to do some flying on a proper field.
  10. hi SW, i had the same problem with my banggood flying flea. I solved it by taking the throttle trim right down as far as it would go. it fired up ok. be warned the throttle control is very limited, sort of on or off.
  11. always a good day flying at DVMFC. many thanks to the gentleman who helped me to regain my model when i came down in the badlands. ( my fault )
  12. received my email on an old address that I no longer use. logged on and tried to change it to my current email, no chance it just keeps reverting to the old address when I save. any idea how to change it or will I forever have to use the old address.
  13. always a good day at DVMFC. arrived early and got a couple of flights in. enjoyed watching as the larger models flew in a challenging wind. thanks to all the people who prepared the field and all the facilities.
  14. I had the same problem as Christopher, the nut disappeared when I removed the table to fit the sanding disc. as I have been an electrician for 45 years and have mended hundreds of tools I stripped it down, replaced the nut held it in with the bolt and glued it. the case is held by 4 Philip screws ( I feared they might of been security screws, as Bosch always fit one). saved taking it back. mike
  15. well it definitely shows the benefits of RTH,(return to home). mike
  16. selenium plate rectifiers were fitted in the 1950 s to 70 s. most motorcycles used them and as martian says once smelled never forgotten. they were very easy to diagnose as soon as you opened the control panel you knew it was blown. mike
