    2014 Magnolia Arkansas Fy-Low-In Pics and coverage- Saturday!

    Totally agreed!! When I do restrain my airplanes with a neckstrap, I make doubly sure that I keep back pressure on my throttle stick. We bust jokes about his finger and such. No sense in getting all pissy and sad about it. Grin and bear it, take it on the chin and go on! :) Get back...

    2014 Magnolia Arkansas Fy-Low-In Pics and coverage- Saturday!

    So did one of my buddies. He had his airplane restrained with a rope, tied up to his workbench. Airplane rolled back, and the throttle advanced, somehow. He started it, and it lunged forward. Ripped off his right middle finger, just behind the first knuckle. This was a wood prop, not a CF...

    IMAC new to me dalton 260/300, just want to fly it!!!

    Never say never. If it can happen, it will happen. My D300 was 60 flights old when I bought it. It had a rough early life, and not much easier since then. It has sat for the past 2.5 years in my basement with no attention to it, after I finished recovering it. One thing happened to my D300...

    Os hyper 50 giving me a headache. Hope for some help.

    No fuel filter anywhere that is restrictive?? Header tank? Low needle? It is a cam style needle, is it set to 12:00 (parallel with the venturi)? High needle out 1.5 turns? If you have a header tank, try bypassing it, process of elimination. I had a brand new Hyper 50 in a Sceadu 50...

    IMAC new to me dalton 260/300, just want to fly it!!!

    Keeps the leaks inside the header. My flexy headers leaked from the first start up, so I found some high temp tape and installed 3 wraps around the flex section. So far so good.

    Good prop drill bit

    No doubt easiest method there with the CNC machine. But my concern is the coolant and the wood hub.

    Os hyper 50 giving me a headache. Hope for some help.

    Clean the carb out, and then replumb the fuel system. A little trick on setting the L needle is to hover it for 45 sec to 1 minute and land it, leaving the engine.run, and put a finger on the backplate. If you can hold your finger there for.longer than 5 sec without it burning, then you...

    Trailers... I wish I had done this.

    I actually use tri flow on my boost tab hinges. It gives off a nice citrusy smell, and no screech when.I deflect my surface at 70*. :)

    Savox 1283 servo connectors

    If you so happen to plug the servos in backwards, dont sweat it. You wont damage anything. Just remember, the darkest wire is negative andthe orange wire is signal. :)

    Helicoil to repair stripped muffler bolts

    You can do that. But since you are drilling and tapping anyways, why not just go up 1 size bolt. I have a tendency to torque my exhaust bolts too much, and I end up stripping the manifold. So, I just go up 1 size in metric. I have 1 engine here currently with 1/4-28 SAE bolts in it for the...

    2014 Wenatchee Huckfest

    There is something seriously wrong with that pic. It is like some words on the shirts or something......

    Been working on my harriers... Question.

    I agree with all that! The throttle jerking is something I don't like hearing. Sounds like you have no control over the throttle, almost like you are trying to keep it in a hover or whatever manuever you are trying.
