    This is how I became the owner of the MVVS-58. Steve is an Engine guy. I'm not. I just want to flip it and fly it.:) So you guys think this is an MVVS-58. Nop! This is an Aussie Hot Rod... Steve Version. I got this message from Steve and he offered me a choice of a 58 or an 80 cc MVVS to...

    Someone asked about sealing hinge gaps. Here is how I do mine... I seal both top and bottom. I don't cover the hinges cause they resist the motion of the aileron and they make an unpleasant noise while moving.

    Thanks for the complements. That is a Top Flite Jug 86in. W/S. The Sukhoi looks better in person then it does on pictures. I think you're going to like it when you get one.

    IMAC Dalton Extra 260 35%...Back at it!

    I wonder if that is going to work. Don't jump on me cause I really don't know. I always looped the vent line and exited the plane in front of the tank. I know that the looping works.

    It's time for some bling. Had to go to the LHS today so I picked these Sullivan wheels up. They are medium priced wheel and have a little bling to them. I'm using the same ones on the 35% PAU Edge and they are holding up great... I have a tendency to be rough on wheels. the original Edge wheels...

    The gap should be as small as possible and you can still get maximum surface deflection... Hope that helps... There is no set size. I'm going to seal the gap with monocoat. I'll take some close up pictures when the time comes.

    I have the second wing hinges epoxied into the wing only. While that is drying I picked out the tape from the first wing. These hinges are turning out to be the best I've ever done. I think its the routine partially, but mostly because I'm taking my time. Yes. Christmas is alive and well in...

    The mailman did show up with the servos and the servo arms today. I couldn't resist mounting a few of them. I found out right away that the Savox Servos were a hare bigger then the opening in the plane. No problem I just opened up the holes with a square file. The servos are about 1/16th of an...

    I picked the tape from around the hinges and they all work like thy are on ball barrings. Then I set up the tail wheel. I always hated setting up the springs cause I could never get the wheel to be straight with the rudder. I'll share a method of setting up the springs that I learned from the...

    I finished gluing the Elevators and Ruder. If everything worked out then I'll move on to the wings.

    You just said you punched holes with a hand punch. I never thought you didn't use any backing. The wax paper sticks to the tape pretty good but will peal of with a gentle pull. My notebook paper punch is also a compromise to your idea. Cause that's what I had handy.

    PAU 30% Sukhoi SU-26

    Got the first four steps done. Shrink the monocote. I have to say that this is the best covering job I've ever seen on an ARF. There are a few bubbles but all the seams are tight and there are a million stripes on this plane. They were all stuck down real nice. Then I made up some masking tape...
