    An Oldie But A Goodie

    That is a several years old picture of Miss Moana sitting upside down. I've been to lazy to start any new projects.

    Discussion The I’m going out flying thread 2018

    I have 2 foamies, one I never fly, a Crack Pitts, and the other is my EDF Mig 21. If we ever get a young person at the club that seems really into flying I'm going to give the Pitts to them. That way someone can enjoy it. The Mig on the other hand I enjoy a lot.:)

    Moki 250cc 40% Sukhoi SU-31

    Tony, the guy that owns it. Is very picky about his stuff, and is a good builder. Back in the ducted fan days before ARF's, he was on Bob Violetts builders list and built some really nice jets.

    An Oldie But A Goodie

    That tip came from JediJody, the engine guru that worked for Valley View. All of my DA50'S were mounted like this one in my scratch build.

    An Oldie But A Goodie

    Can you get to the plate on the carb with the single big screw? If so, loosen it a little, then plug the vent line and pump a little fuel in it. The air will have nowhere to go and it will force fuel to the carb since the plate is loose. That will get everything wet and help it start since it's...

    Moki 250cc 40% Sukhoi SU-31

    I've suggested that in the past, but he's had the SU-31 for 7 years and wants something new. I flew with him today, and he really likes what he sees on the Valach 250 radial. It looks more refined than the Moki.

    Don't have the space, and more importantly the cash.

    Discussion The I’m going out flying thread 2018

    I would kill for temps like that. It was nasty at the field today, REALLY humid. It was so bad I only flew once. The rest of the time I sat in the shade flapping my jaws. I spent a lot of time with a club member that just got his first Giant Scale airplane, a 138" Hangar 9 Super Decathlon. He's...

    Moki 250cc 40% Sukhoi SU-31

    Okay, you guys really did it now.;) I sent the info on the Valach 250 radial to my buddy and he's in, that means the DA200 powered SU-31 is for sale, which makes me kinda sad.:(

    Moki 250cc 40% Sukhoi SU-31

    Price wise it's just slightly more than the Moki. but it comes with the fuel pump.:)

    Moki 250cc 40% Sukhoi SU-31

    Thanks guys! That motor is not on Valach USA's website. My flying buddy Tony is considering a Carf Pitts with a radial as a winter project. I'll tell him about this. @acerc have you heard good things about the reliability of the 250?
