Mouse Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Hi there Just a quick question I hope someone can help with. I am looking to get a hobbyking delteray but because of limited space in my truck I need to find out the height of it from the belly to the top of the fin (without the undercarriage attached) when on a flat surface. I have tried the horizon hobby's website and have even tried to ring them but cannot get an answer, the nearest shop that I can go to and see one is about a two hour drive away, I know the fin is glued in place so I cannot remove it every time I want to take the plane out.. Thank you Bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Bran Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Bill, Hobbyking or Horizon Hobby? Delteray? Delta Ray as title? HK website only seems to have a Delta Rocket? I'm guessing you mean the HobbyZONE Delta Ray............................You might need to be more specific? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Bran Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Go direct to Hobbyzone then. I would have thought it would be quite simple to make the tail fin screw fitting and so packable near flat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingCrust Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 From the description in this tutorial I reckon you could use velcro (other makes of hook-and-loop are available) to fix the fin. Easily removable then so height isn't an issue when transporting. Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Hi Dave as in my first post I have already tried to contact Hobbyzone who are also called Horizon Hobby U.K., and I am not sure if I could screw into foam that easily, could you please elaborate on how I could do this. Watched the tutorial from Ian and maybe Velcro is possible but in the past I have had problems getting the Velcro to stick to the foam and parts have become detached, this was using the manufacture's supplied Velcro, or is there a specific brand I should look for ??. I have tried to edit the heading to avoid confusion but cannot find out how to do this, sorry. Thank you Bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
