New E-Flite Carbon Z Cub Assembly Log & Chat
Michael Wright replied to Devcon1's topic in Sport, Aerobatic and 3D kits
Thanks for the reply David, the AS3X being the possible culprit is interesting, I will scout around the net for more info,...certainly makes sense as it is noted on other airframes. Regards Mike -
New E-Flite Carbon Z Cub Assembly Log & Chat
Michael Wright replied to Devcon1's topic in Sport, Aerobatic and 3D kits
Finally got my Carbon Z yesterday evening so shot straight home with it and put it together. A very good build quality, everything going together well apart from the motor onto the bulk head. I found the screws very, very difficult to dive home, in fact I had to give them quite a bit of persuasion!! All done in around the suggested three hour mark, and the first flight was earlier this evening, and what a first flight! I have never had one where no trim is needed! The only thing of note was a slight 'flutter' of the tail plane and elevators at full chat. Back off the throttle to three quarters and no problems! After that first flight I can understand why E-Flite put it under their 'Trainer' section! Regards Mike -
Need a bit of advice please....got a Carbon z coming soon and have a six cell lipo for it. I also have 2 other batteries that are 3 cell lipo's but are different 'c' ratings, my question is 'can these be combined into a 6 cell. I could charge them sepperately ?

As the title suggests, how do I fit my carb onto my engine?. New in the box the carb was in a separate bag? This is my first look at an IC engine for many, many years! kind regards Mike

Correct connection method
Michael Wright replied to Michael Wright's topic in Batteries and Chargers
Thanks for the replies everybody,..just back from London so will try in the morning. Cheers! kind regards Mike -
I have a little bit of a newbie question here, I have got a charger that I really don't understand how to operate, even after reading the instructions many times. It is a 'Fusion Elysium Pro'. Can any body tell me how to connect the battary (Art tech li po 1300mah, 11.1v, 3 cell), do I just connect by using the balance plug, or by the balance plug and the batt power lead? Your advice will be much apreciated. kind regards Mike

Thanks for the reply guys, I will relay the info! Cheers! kind regards Mike

Hi Josip, Cheers!,...the beer was 'all grain' brewed to my own recipe and the bittering hops and the flavour hops where 'Citra', grown in Navada U.S.A. As you can see from my pictures I need to spend more time building and flying, rather than brewing! Kind regards Mike

This is a strange one to me, but then again my experience is not great. Two friends of mine have noticed that after flying their planes (Critical mass and a Husban motorized glider) that the motors on both planes seem to be harder to turn manually. After cooling for a few hours things seem to go back to normal. I am at a loss to explain to them the reason for this. Is it possible that they are running the motors to hard? Looking forward to your thoughts! Regards Mike

Hi guys, as an e-bay shop owner in the past you my find this interesting. As a shop owner (on e bay) we have various fourums on e-bay to discuss selling stuff. The proof of posting from the Post Office' won't save you at all. Many cases where seller has this and Ebay still force a refund to the customer. Some sellers say they think they are targeted by the same group of buyers!

I seem to have lost the text a little in the above post. I have noticed that quite a few of us modelers are also into astronomy, if you are one of them then try www.cloudynights.com regards Mike

Roy, thanks for putting fingers to the key board! you and your shop sound like just the place that most of us would like to visit, it is obvious that you understand customer service because people such as "Crosstown Tee" are willing to travel large distances for your service. Looking through this thread again it appears that a large group of people are reaching for the 'net because a significant number of shop owners don't understand that the important thing is 'service, service, service!' Although I have not visited your shop I feel that if I was in your area I certainly would. Thank you for being there and making a difference. Regards mike
