    Oooohhhh goodie goodie! I hope there is some Zero's near by! I'd watch some John Wayne "Flying Tigers" for inspiration prior to the maiden.

    H9 15cc Carbon Cub

    Pulled the rcgf 21cc twin off the cub and it is on it's way back to VVRC. Might try the VVRC 21cc single instead on this plane. When I took the RCGF 21cc mufflers and plugs off I did a little investigating. . . one of the cylinder that was producing more of an oily mess than the other had some...

    I have a plastic one that is very similar but I think it is warped or something. Maybe I'll give one of the turbo coolz a try. Thanks

    H9 15cc Carbon Cub

    Thinking about putting this walbro carb on to see if things dramatically change. Have to add the impulse port... don't think it'll be that hard? If not, it's time for a DLE-20 I think. I love this little rcgf 21 but she's breaking my heart.... just a little more TLC and maybe she'll come around...

    H9 15cc Carbon Cub

    Well well well. I flew the carbon cub again. The engine still doesn't have the power I'd like, tried to die on me a few times... My new MPI servo reverser on the left flap twitches with the engine running... so time to man up and get lager receiver. Another club member came to the field with...

    Nice P&W R985! I've replaced several of those engines on the DHC-2 and quite a few jugs. Remember to index that 90deg to the right so the eagle is at the bottom :In_love:

    Making a few Changes

    @GSNadmin Any thoughts to help the users out here? I know there must be a financial reason GSN is the new face of Model Airplane News online, but can we keep the users posts only on the RH column, no ADs or MAN? Just there. pretty please? I'm having a hard time keeping up to date with people on...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I cut myself once on an APC, I was just getting into nitro, first four cycle OS71? I was flipping it through admiring the cute powerplant... that's when it happened (yes not even trying to start it). I felt like an idiot, but learned a good lesson APC = RAZOR BLADE. Made almost a paper cut like...

    Alert! ??? RedWing RC???

    Crazy, I have always had good service getting parts from them. When ever something was up about my order they always called me promptly. Pretty much everything is out of stock. :( I got my pushrods, wheels, misc tid bits from them. Sad to see this happening.

    Nice. The V1 had fixed LG. Plane was slippery, would pick up speed in a decent. So approaches were long unless I did a stall turn on the downwind. Drag could be ok, you'll just have to fly it and see! Flapperons did not for for the v1 . Lost too much lift lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I had the version 1 (orange) of this. ''Twas a hot rod. I as an OS 46 with a bisson Pitts muff. It landed pretty hot. Still added a small brick of lead in the nose to get the CG right. I remember being able to to a lumsevuk? with it. I flew the snot out of it until I gave it to another member...
