    Yippee! What the postman brought

    The Robart gear was not so good from my experience, the trunion is made out of aluminum and must be a very low alloy. My the slot opened up after a few landings, I bet I had less than 25 flights on mine before I cart wheeled on a grass runway during a take off. To add insult to injury,in was...

    Wade, I'll get the other set ready and let you know. What do you think of the gear? I thought about building it just or the gear but decided there are way too many parts!!!

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Ordered a cowl today. Plan to build this fuselage with the dorsal fin modification that should help with adverse yaw. Been looking on airliners.net for another paint scheme but thinking I will stay with the yellow/orange scheme. Here are both fin types, apparently the bigger fin allows for...

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    To cut the fabric, I paint the fabric along the cut line with Poly Brush and let it dry, then hold a razor blade at low angle along the cut line and pull the fabric up along the cut line. The PolyBrush keeps the fabric from fraying. Control shrinkage with low heat, don't go crazy with the heat...

    Scale Rodel Model Cessna 182 Skylane

    I would finish the wing, mount the wing with plastic wrapping film install on the wing, then fill the gap a Bondo like product or epoxy thickened with microballoons and chopped fibers. You will want to add dams around the wing dowels and bolts to prevent sticking. Here is a photo of the...
