    I guess he didn't like it, WOAH....

    Stoopid is fine, just learn from a mistake if at all possible. For some, it is not possible, and they just keep doing dumb stuff. Like a guy locally, decided to TAKE gov't property off WPAFB grounds without permission. Took it to the local field, grabbed the freq pin, yes, back when we flew...

    IMAC Carden Pro 124 Build, My Dream Plane

    There is a root rib fixture, and attaches to the wing with a couple of small pins. The square cut out for the end of the tube sockets are basically "hot knifed" out or using NiChrome wire (just like a hot wire), to remove as little material as possible. Once that is cut out, there is another...

    Pull pull or Push Pull

    If it does balance tail heavy, you can shift the engine fwd some, to counter act. ;)

    Pull pull or Push Pull

    I think if you go with stock mufflers and enough battery you "should" be able to go push pull.

    Pull pull or Push Pull

    I typically leave the rudder servos out until I get ready to balance.

    Share your Trailer Ideas Here

    Yeah, I dont know why folks go with a torsion bar suspension. The torsion suspension is pretty useless for our needs, unless you are loaded pretty good. I have had 2 trailers with torsion suspension. I hit a couple of bumps, and when the trailer come back down from the sky, i figured that I...

    I got his info from Craig Beavery in England. The fellows name is Norman Toth. Craig is the cat who does alot of Krills testing on the other site. I dont think he has a screen name here.....

    3D Rebuilding the Compy MX2.

    Started programming rudder servos and installing them. Looks like there may be a hint of flex with tail mounted servos.... I may have to make up some sort of bulk head for the tail for the servos. Can't have that flexing back there. But 4-40 pushrods in 3mm ball links don't cut it. You...

    Pull pull or Push Pull

    I have done both set ups. With push pull being my favorite. Pull pull is harder to maintain proper cable tension, but lots swear by it. Whatever floats your boat, is what I say. I'm setting my Compy MX2 up as push pull. Just need to measure up for pushrods. I will either make them out of...

    Regardless the issue with anything........ Shouldn't publicly destroy an airplane by hand, been there, done that, felt like a big wanka afterwards. Crash, yes. Fix it and sell it cheap, yes! Give the full history on it, and let it go at that. Someone who likes the looks of the airplane...

    3D Rebuilding the Compy MX2.

    I went thru with it. I cut 2 holes in the back of the MX2 for rudder servos. Have some 1/8" backer plates drying in the fuse now for the servos. Had Chad and Tash @Taildraggerrc send me a pair of 2" servo horns to fit my Savox 2231s. I would hope that a push pull set up with 2 servos at...
