    Wing bolt idea

    I saw these thumb screw gadgets online and decided to try to add them to a 1/4 nylon bolt. I think they would press fine on a steel bolt but the nylon bolt required some quick dry JB Weld. Looks like it will work.

    Sport Refreshing the Yak

    After bringing in my Pilot 100cc Yak for a mild tune up I kept finding more to do. So instead of burying the items in other threads I'll start a dedicated one. My NoBS nimh batteries are dependable, easy to charge and have plenty of juice for my 3 flight average but it's time to move on. With...

    Best size trailer?

    Guys, opinions on trailer size? I'm looking at a 6 x 12 and a 7 x 14. My F350 will pull either. I have a 35%, a 40% and will probably add another similar someday. That smaller single axle would be a lot easier to pull. Thanks

    Angle gauges

    I was looking at my elevator halves being slightly out of even when in high rates and fully up or down and I remembered that I need to buy angle gauges. Finally got around to buying some. They look pretty good. . .

    Not giant scale

    Ordered a foamie from Twisted Hobbies and could not believe how small the servos are. My eyes bugged out. The connector is almost as big as the servo

    SOLD! Brison 3.2 (52cc)

    SOLD - My 1st listing here on GSN. I have a fairly clean Brison 3.2 (52cc) engine that looks good, turns smoothly and is very clean inside. I acquired it in a trade and have no use for 50cc size engines. According to previous owner it was serviced as recently as 2009. As is. $195 plus...

    I built a Sig Kadet Mk II in '82, my older son started one a few years ago but has not finished. Today I got my 8 year old to start his Kadet.

    The I'm NOT going out flying thread.

    This is a thread for those of us who can't go out flying on a regular basis. I own a 8-10 person plumbing company and have 2 active young boys. Both boys play sports virtually a year around and I coach my older son's baseball team. It isn't easy breaking away to squeeze in a few flights...

    I love classic pattern thread

    I love any classic pattern plane with wheels up and on the pipe. Especially MK planes. In response to PawnshopMike's request I will post a few photos for him. First is my scratch built MK Blue Angel. About 4 years of building. From a single plan and a pile of balsa wood to a finished...

    Sport Thanks to all the builders here.

    It is great to spend a rainy Saturday morning with a cup of coffee and some great build threads to peruse through. Even better is not having to wade through all the ARF assemblies to find a good build thread (unlike other websites). Can we keep it this way? Thanks again.

    Best throttle servo

    Not happy with the lack of consistent idle speed on my 3W-106, one thought is to figure out if a better servo would help. Currently using a Hitec HS-5955. Any suggestions on a servo or idle speed reliability? David
