    IMAC New Jtec Radiowave Giles 202 builders kit offical release

    We started cutting one out last night. We will try and get some pictures posted later. This one will probably be a personal build for Kevin. The material in this build will be a little different as we will be working on the CS version ( Competition Series ) One of the differences will be this...

    I am considering doing a build thread right from the start showing some of the basic files to laser cutting parts and foam cutting if there is an interest. Al

    IMAC New Jtec Radiowave Giles 202 builders kit offical release

    We thought we would share some photos of the new Radiowave 3.1m Giles 202 that we test flew last week. As many of you know the Giles is the predecessor to the MX2 with the major difference being the straight trailing edge design that the Giles has. Since the two airplanes are so closely related...

    The Pitts will take basically half the throw that you normally use with with a mono plane and that is the reason that you don't have to worry about double beveling things like the ailerons.

    IMAC Jtec/Radiowave G 202

    We have been working on a new Giles 202 and finally got a chance to test fly it last week after the snow melted. Kevin did most of the design work. I did most of the building and Jason did most of the flying. Jason said if Clover Creek or the Shootout were a week from now he wouldn't hesitate to...

    IMAC Double Build, Carden Pro 124" Extra 300 40%

    Cam, and others We do lots of drilling and taping here as you may suspect, an option if you don't have tapping oil is to use bar soap as a lubricant for drilling and tapping ( bath soap) we use it all the time and it not as messy as oil. A drop of liquid detergent works well too!! Al

    Rob, Sorry I am just catching up with the setup. One rudder servo will be fine if it has god torque. If you run out of port you can use a matchbox or Futaba MA10 . you get additional ports plus they allow you to reverse direction of the servo's and control the throw to match servos just a...

    Pilot Arf and Pilot Kit are two different companies. Pilot RC ( Tony) is doing fine. If I remember correctly pilot kit were brought in by Global ( aka Hobby Shack aka Hobby People ) Pilot kits were around in the late 80's and 90's. I believe they were produced in Mexico

    Cam, We have and we give the same response. Its designed for a 100/120 and a decent 120 makes it ballistic!! it will fly great on a 100. I believe Alan on the RC Canucks site has a 100 in his on canisters. Unfortunately we can not control what people decide to put in it, but we have to stick...

    I actually like it where you have it now. I am a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to the model 12 and tend to like the 2 place version better even though my 41% was a single place. I think where you have it right now looks good, not to long or not to short. I just hate when the canopy is...

    Rob, I think I have it figured out. It looks like there may be a variance in the materials that are accounting for some of the firewall thrust. I have different pieces of 1/4" birch wood here which are varying in thickness from .233 on up. So if that is the case in your firewall you may have...
