I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

My best ideas so far are to either use an elastic material or a pull-pull. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 04-Oct-08 17:20 Views : 864 The motor is mounted and stringers are starting to go on. If you look close you can see push rods for the rudder and elevator. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 26-Sep-08 16:37 Views : 878 I finally got around to fixing the tail wheel. I used 1/32" plywood for the support which will hopefully be strong enough without adding too much weight. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 09-Sep-08 15:15 Views : 825 Sometimes I forget that I work a 3 minute walk from a 6 story library with 1.4 million books that will loan them to me for 3 months. No need to mail me the book now DD, I can read this copy and don't have to return it till December 8th. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 07-Sep-08 02:00 Views : 1009 Here is where the wheel really wants to sit. I guess it is time to grind off all that epoxy and find a way to tilt the brass tubing forward so that the tail wheel will want to rest properly. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 07-Sep-08 01:58 Views : 883 The tail wheel was working just fine till I put on the main wheels and gave it a test roll. This is also the first time I have used a wheel with a metal hub so I was actually able to solder on metal washers to hold it in place. Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 07-Sep-08 01:55 Views : 822 I was going to use small Du-Bro hinges on the tailfeathers till the unthinkable happened, someone set a "free" box outside their office door with a box of perfectly good 3.5" floppies in it. So now I have hinge material that it just the right size. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 30-Aug-08 23:48 Views : 884 After doing some more work today I couldn't resist temporarily attaching the tailfeathers to see if it wouldn't look more like a P-51. The next step is to install the tailwheel in its scale location then figure out how to make all the linkages work. SteveM Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 20-Aug-08 02:41 Views : 846 I went with the FF open frame on the non-movable parts and used some 10 lb. cu. ft. C grain for the movable parts (the aileron will have to be cut out to fit the rudder). The kit supplied wood for this was as heavy as plywood so I opted not to use it. sqrllyWB Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 02-Aug-08 23:14 Views : 1675 sqrllyWB Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 02-Aug-08 23:12 Views : 1685 sqrllyWB Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang Build 02-Aug-08 22:04 Views : 1694 Page (69 in total) :  <<   50   51   52   53   54   55   56   57   58   59   60   >>  [ < Prev ] [ Next > ]
