    Scale World Models 1/3 Super Cub Project

    I'm happy to see more guys discovering this plane. Mine has opened flying events towing the US flag, gotten 2nd in Sportsman, 1st in freestyle, has floats, and an EME 120 on the nose. You can even do knife edge loops with it! I have put in 10 degrees of flap and idled around for an hour on...

    Totally Full On Bad To The Bone! PAU 43% Edge/DLE 222

    I'm going to try and put one in my 1/3 UPF-7 conversion from an AMR YMF-5 kit. I was set on a big 250cc+ radial, but at less then 1/3 the cost the 222 v3 is the runner up! Not the radial sound, but it's better then a 2 banger!

    SOLD! Brison 6.4 (105cc) with CH ignition and solo prop $450

    Brison 6.4, with exhaust, CH ignition, Walbro carb, and matched 2 blade Solo adjustable pitch prop. Exhaust is tapped for smoke. Perfect for scale applications, with long exhaust tubes for big round cowls. I removed this from a barely flown 1/3 Waco that I am putting a larger engine into. On...

    Prop Rip

    Great post. Exactly what I was looking for. I want to add my 2c to the discussion. IF you want to slow a prop down, don't add an inch of dia, and take away the pitch- IE: going from a 29X10 to a 30X8. Both will put about the same load on the motor. You want to keep the pitch constant, and...

    For Sale 1/3 WM Clipped Cub DA-100 shipping negotiable.

    I'm selling my 1/3 World Models clipped wing Cub to fund other scale projects. It was purchased new in 2013, and has had hardware upgrades where necessary- including wing/ strut mount bolts and linkages in the tail. The wings are "quick release" and have one stud and wing nut on each root rib...

    I JUST GOT TO HAVE THAT!

    I say, instead of efi, why not a super charging direct (mechanical) injection like on YS motors? Leave the computers and sensors on the ground.

    Servo City Servo bus bar (poor mans power expander)

    For those that don't already know about this nifty little product here is a brief description of how you can make sure those big, expensive, high-torque, current hungry servo's stay well fed. It's been pretty well established one or even two tiny JR connectors don't cut the mustard when...

    Pre Order the Aeroworks 120cc Freestyle 260 ARF QB-L and Save $100

    I loved the way the prototype flew. Aeroworks old 260 was arguably the best 3d and imac plane they had. The new 110" is the most controllable plane I have ever flown. Handles like a light 40% with almost no coupling. One day I will have one!

    The FAA just "went there" NOT GOOD. ALL RC Aircraft = REAL AIRCRAFT

    What a mess. The perfect use of the term "SNAFU". All I have to say is "from my cold, dead hand!"

    DA blown seal?

    Sometimes the front bearing and main crank bearings work perfectly right until the seals go. Bummer you have to send it back, but the new bearings should be cheap. DA is pretty good about service, but sometimes stuff like that can get missed.

    97 Gee Bee Y

    I love GeeBees too! I'd stick with a decent 2 stroke. The saito radials are heavy and pretty gutless from my experience.
