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

    Great! I thought that was an aero-beez or sumtin:confused:. His repair/paint service would be close to that and of course you have to take two way shipping in to account. Just throwing it out there. He has done some really nice work for me and many others. Not trying to eat a spam samich LOL

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

    Looking good! Just an FYI.....If you have difficulty locating a new cowl I have a good friend "Raiko Dezigns" who can make your existing cowl look better than new. Probably a little more than the cost of the replacement cowl but his work is "Extraordinary".

    BlueBird HB 50B servos

    Some time has gone by and I never got the other 4 of 6 BLS H50B servos back to Blue Bird for "frequency tuning" as they recommended to me. Kinda glad I didn't. I was saving these servos for a 70 or 100cc airframe to only use 5 of them in the plane. But as with the hobby life got in the way and I...

    GSN GIVE-A-WAY Hangar 9 35% Extra 300X Assembly

    Happy to hear success on both planes!:applause: (forgot about that beautiful racer maiden!:oops:) Your Extra maiden sounds almost identical to mine when I maiden the EF 104. Your subsequent flights were much better though (mine had an ignition flame out in a hover due faulty kill switch). Sounds...

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

    I Like it because it was some what easier to install on the gas can. You could just pick up some "Tank fittings" that are available now and individually put on fittings but it may be a little more difficult to reach and smaller nuts to screw in place. My method leaves the gas can cap free from...

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    Yep. Good guy :attaboy:. As a matter of fact I got the "matched" piston, liner and con rod from him that's in David's 61LS. David @HRRC Flyer I would hold on to the old piston and liner that I sent with the engine as it is obviously not the total culprit. My gut feeling is the front bearing...

    Not much going on until an ignition and some parts arrive. I did get a fresh gallon mixed for my new fueler :). Probably fix my problem with the DL50 :cautious: .

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    I figured it was a 46 sized US. Saw it at tower. How you liking that FZ80? what prop? When I had the DZ 70 going in a 46 size Kaos ARF I was turning a 15x7 MAS and performance was unreal! Just a note....DZ 70 uses a recip pump so tank pressure is not an issue. Hey David thanks. The 46 is what...

    CRRC GP50R

    Mechanically the DL50 I have has seen some wear and tear on the cylinder and some bad scratching by what looks to have been a human hand trying to remove deposits and clean the cylinder wall with an abrasive or sharp object. The piston and ring are very clean and no signs of excessive blow by or...

    That will be "WAY COOL" There were two flying with G-38's at Battle Ship park when I first picked the hobby back up in 1990. One was a fun flyer and the other dropped a parachute and later became a candy dropper.

    Just trying to catch up on things and such around here but......Month of September is my B-day month and this year it is one of those "milestone" birthdays so be sure to gift wrap it in some extra special gift wrap :). I suppose a cheeseburger sticker or two is out of the question? :rolleyes:.

    CRRC GP50R

    I have definitely considered just bolting on a DLE 55 but my "desire" with this Pilot Extra is to "recreate" the ever so popular "50cc" class plane of "GASMANIA". You know I luv me a DA but I have to be very "conscience" about how I go about my endeavors in the hobby now. Flying site resources...
