    Show Me the Biplanes!!!!

    Well, at this point I've narrowed it down to a Hostetler S1-11B modified for plug in wings, or the Culp or the Samson. I'm not ruling anything out, these are just leading right now.

    Keep pecking away at it and it will be flying before you know it.

    After quite a bit of searching for Samson info, I found this.

    Cool The I'm going out flying thread 2017

    I had a throttle servo die at just over a fast idle. Just barely enough to fly and way to much to land. Full tank of fuel and no kill switch.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    The one I'm working on is the opposite of spaghetti bowl syndrome. It's so neat and orderly I'm almost afraid to touch it.

    I think he would need to find a new job if he ran Blue Bird servos.;)

    It needs a big Moki since it has a round cowl.:yesss:

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I'm hoping so. Just reprogramming the radio should do wonders. The only tricky thing about that is programming the smoke pump to adjust with throttle. Everything else is standard stuff. The servo matching is done in the Powerbox so I shouldn't have to do that. I am adding a kill switch for each...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I worked more on the Sukhoi tonight. I put the throttle servo back in and as I was hooking up the linkage and noticed the chokes weren't working right. The rear one would only close about half way. I had to flip the choke arms over and reengineer all the linkage, and make an aluminum arm, and it...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I worked on the big Sukhoi last night. After removing the throttle servo and testing it and finding it works flawlessly I was even more confused. I've tried to wade through the programing in his 11X and even though I know that radio very well I couldn't make any sense of the way he has it...
