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

Very nice Vac Form parts. Lightweight silkspan is included. VERY nice kit. pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Reference 09-Jan-12 23:22 Views : 1130 It uses a center "Beam" constuction technique. Lot's of ribs. 8o0 pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Reference 09-Jan-12 23:21 Views : 1183 That's an 18" scale. 34" WS. This is advertised as a "Display" model. pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Reference 08-Jan-12 18:53 Views : 1085 pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Reference 08-Jan-12 18:52 Views : 1108 Scored at the AMA Expo today (not that I need any more). The Herr laser cut G-Bee and Corsair and the Comet Ryan SC and DH-4 (Jimmy's purchase) cost $60 for the "Bundle". But I was most excited to find the "Lancaster". We walked away with the other four to put them in the car, but alas, I could not resist the pull and went back and picked up the Bomber. pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Build 02-Dec-11 21:59 Views : 1068 Swapped out the motor again to ParkZone gear. Note the different gear ratio (about 4/1). The motor is a much "Hotter" wind than the previous. I had to revert to a lower pitch prop because the "P Factor" (torque) of the 100x80mm would roll the aircraft over with a rapid advance of the throttle! Yikes! http://www.youtube.com/user/pfinnfp?feature=mhee . Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Build 29-Nov-11 21:16 Views : 1119 Changed the powerplant from the 7mm 1.7 ohm direct drive to a 6mm 4.5ohm 5.25:1 ratio gearbox. The prop in the picture is a 100x60 mm. It barely kept the aircraft in the air. I switched to a 100x 70 or 80? (doesn't say) for the video. Better. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-Bv9zRJctY pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Flying 16-Oct-11 14:18 Views : 1178 The rear wing incedence needs to changed as well as CG. here's a preliminary video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuz_72JGFo8 . pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Flying 16-Oct-11 14:16 Views : 1199 Hooked up the RC gear and had a couple initial flights. pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Build 30-Aug-11 22:32 Views : 1194 No controll surfaces yet. pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Build 30-Aug-11 22:31 Views : 1170 Temporarily assembled so I could set the C of G with a few tosses (freeflight). The thing actually flies. Notice that one of the motor leads worried off. Bummer. pfinn Scratch Built MIA - Micro Indoor Aircraft Build 17-Jul-11 23:57 Views : 1251 2um mylar covering. Used thinned "Stix-It" heat sensitive adhesive to apply. A bit tricky at first (as always) but gets easier with practice. Slivers of mylar trimmings REALLY do the static cling thing big time. Funny and annoying at the same time! I put some on Nico the cat. That was the funny part ;o) ! Page (2 in total) :  <<  [ < Prev ]
