    Scale Wendell Hostetler 30% PA-28 Cherokee Build

    Yes the formers are on sheets with the wing ribs, stabilizer and rudder parts, they are 1/8" balsa sheet. The firewall is only 3/8" plywood not cut with any other part. The wood arrived today.

    Behind the wires there appears to be wiring diagrams for the different voltages. Somewhere on the motor there will be a drawing of 220 and 480 volt connections if it is not there.

    Tell me to go away! I'm guessing you have 220 3 phase and the motor is wired for 460/480 3 phase. Have a look at the 3 phase 6 wire diagram. https://dealersindustrialblogdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/12/6-lead1.jpg

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

    Do you have the motor wired correctly for your voltage? It is a three phase motor, if the windings are not shorted to ground (Don't expect since it didn't flash!) and the windings have continuity (Possible one of the wire leads was pulled from the winding wire) there not anything else to go...

    Ordered the wood for the replacement build this morning from National Balsa. I emailed them a while ago and ask if I could purchase the 3/8" laser cut firewall only due to an accident, they sent me one for free, great people to deal with. I still have about 50% of the original laser cut kit...

    The only Top Flite kit I built was a Trainer 40 way back, pretty sure it was my second real RC airplane build. From what I remember it was a very nice kit. The wings were built on a supplied 1/4" music wire jig. Powered with an OS 40 FP bushed engine, man did that engine make a lot of crank...

    Well not sure what has happened but this morning I can now access the site on my PC. I really hate using the phone for this, my fingers are three letters wide. Great to be back. I have been working at my daughters house doing a little patching and painting, yesterday I removed wallpaper in a...

    My computer is blocking the site since Saturday. Turned off VPN and virus protection and still can’t access the site. Phone even warned me that the security certificate expired 3 days ago. Never seen that warning before. Anyone have any ideas?
