    Glad to hear you figured it out. Those numbers were perplexing.

    Wing Nut / attachments

    I had difficulty installing the 1/4-20 nylon bolts on my H9 Sukhoi, particularly the front set. My big hands just didn't have room. I glued a 1/4-20 screw into the blind nut in the wing and cut the head off. Now all I have to do is reach in and spin a 1/4-20 wing nut on it from the inside. It...

    Need Help with Futaba 8FG Super

    Hangar 9 3.1M Sukhoi

    All you want/need is a single layer of dense foam under the RX. Anything more is superfluous. Great installation. Nice and neat. I like neat.

    New Iraqi Warbird

    Looks like the engine has cooked the camel's rear legs to medium-well.

    Thumbs up for Taildragger Rc!

    How many of you are running the new DA150L?

    Wow. A DA150 should turn a Mej. 32X10 right at 6000RPM. Something isn't right.

    Miracle Switch w/ fuel dot - suggestions needed

    While you have the clear silicone out, you might want to secure the wires on the back of the switch. They are notorious for breaking loose. Not a good situation.

    DA 170 gas engine forum/thread

    The fix was implemented at least two years ago. I have had both the DLE170 and DA170 on the same airframe ( at different times-ha ha) and while the DLE170 was no slouch, it won't touch the DA170 performance-wise.

    DA 170 gas engine forum/thread

    And they nailed it. One small hole was all it took. It's amazing sometimes how little it really takes to solve a seemingly large problem.
