Tim Kearsley Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Louis, I've just started a Revolver II build also. The build was well documented in the May and June 2019 RCM&E. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Petherbridge Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Tim , just received the plans but it doesn't give info that I require . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Kearsley Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 As I said in the previous post it would be worth your while getting hold of the May and June 2019 copies of RCM&E. I got mine as digital copies from Pocketmags. In those issues, Richard Harris, the designer, describes the build and the trimming and setup - vital info.

Tim Kearsley Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 To answer the question in your original post Louis, the mast and tail boom are designed to be removable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Harris Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 (edited) Louis, Generally SARIK hobbies include the magazine article with a purchased plan. The link that Tim added includes alot of information. The tail boom on the Revolver II is removable via two screws through a fibre glass plate mounted to the boom. These are shown on the plan. Here are a few photos that may better explain, hope they help. Edited February 15 by Richard Harris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Petherbridge Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 Richard , thanks for the pic's , Just finished the Panther ( yet to maiden due to crap weather ) so thought I'd try try the Revolver II instead , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Kearsley Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 "Generally SARIK hobbies include the magazine article with a purchased plan." It may have been an accidental omission but there was no magazine article included in the Revolver II short kit I just bought from Sarik.

Tim Kearsley Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Did anyone else use Corona CS238MG servos for the Revolver and find that the rudder servo is a very tight fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
