    Sport The 182 gets "Gassed"

    Sorry everyone. I totally planned on a little more work on the Cessna tonight after work. I chose instead to have dinner with a friend. Hey, she was cooking... LOL. Just don't think it will work though. She's not a "Redhead". :laughing: Will definitely have some progress tomorrow.:yesss:

    Graupner Radios

    Ok, so here we go. I have run the Hitec Aurora and X9 for about six year now. Prior to that, strictly Futaba. As time went on, I wanted more features than the Hitec offered at the time. Bought two JR XG11's. First one, I just could not get the feel of. Back to Hitec. Bought a second JR XG11...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    That is so awesome Mark. You and Robert no doubt had a great time. The more I pay attention, the more I feel a change in local would be good. Lol Well, you mean we're all to believe you actually got some flying in? Good for you. It's about time. :laughing:

    The official I'm NOT going to Joe Nall thread

    Yup, I'm tired of being a responsible adult. I just wanna go to Nall and fly. And go to Nall and fly. And go to Nall and fly. So, what is wrong with this?

    Sport The 182 gets "Gassed"

    I got a little done on the Cessna today. My first order of business was getting rid of the mounting blocks for the starter, the throttle servo and mounting blocks and cleaning up the firewall. I took a look inside the fuse and yup, still clean and still a wiring mess from removing...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    We had a slight reprieve in the thunderstorms passing through the valley yesterday, so we got out and did some flying. My son got a chance to re-maiden his new Pilot 50cc Yak. First initial flight was a bit spooky. Something went amiss with the radio system he was using and nearly drilled it in...

    Sport The 182 gets "Gassed"

    Ah man!! Sorry about that. I remember back in the day, right after I had taught myself to fly by trial and error. (More error than trial I think) I had a Midwest Cherokee. I bet ya'll remember that plane. Built from a box of sticks and gallon of CA. I "tanked" it up with retracts and nose gear...

    Sport The 182 gets "Gassed"

    I don't know if this really qualifies for a build thread, but I guess it's kinda sorta maybe a build in a way. Something a little different from what I have been doing lately. The Hangar 9 Cessna has been sitting in the corner for the better part of two or so years. (Not sure I remember exactly...

    Peak Models 32% Extra 330 SC

    Just think of it Kelly. Though you've had to make some revisions and updates, once done you'll know she ain't gonna fall apart in the sky. That's a good thing. I am however holding my breath she doesn't get a taste of the starting table blues such as a certain Pilot Edge that shall remain...

    Oracover Bordeaux Red

    Hey everyone, I would really appreciate a little help if possible. My son picked up a 40% 129" TOC Aviation Yak 54. It is brand new, never ever even started on assembly. Problem is, the rudder was missing and thanks to Dave Sullivan, we were able to locate the proper rudder. Alas, not the same...

    Stab Tube

    Thank you. I also remembered that TNT Landing Gear sells what I may need. See? All I needed was someone to jog my memory. Happens regularly here lately. It's the age thing. LOL

    Stab Tube

    Hey, I need a stab tube for a 40% TOC Yak 54. It came with aluminum wing and stab tubes along with a CF wing tube. The stab tube seems to be the wrong one so I would like to get a replacement CF stab tube. Needs to be 31" x 1" diameter. Anyone know where to get one or who to talk to? I would...

    That's really cool Chris. Are the Bluebird servos fully programmable? As in, ability to set EPA, travel volume, speed? I love the Hitec servos for this reason. I would love to get my hands on some servos like the Bluebirds to give them a try. Not being sponsored by any company, I am able to test...
