    Whew! bit of an effort.......But it is ready for the fuse.....Took me all damn day:rolleyes:. The axles were a couple of thousands to large in diameter but an easy fix with the drill press. And NO I did not bore out those nice bronze bushings in those nice CNC wheel hubs. I used rubber flat...

    When I used to use those style linkages I always swapped out the mild steel for stainless. Used 3.5 inch socket cap hex bolts. I got them from RTL fastners. Lowes and Home depot have stainless fastners but I doubt they will have what your looking for in stock. I hear a lot of guys like Terry use...

    VVRC 40cc Twin

    The difference in the stacks is so small I doubt it has any thing to do with performance. Now your carb getting hot that can be definitely an issue. Might try and see if you can make a thermal deflector that shields the carb from muffler heat. Balsa and aluminum foil works good for making them...

    WFly T-18 Radio. COOL!

    I believe they use their own version of the Fasst protocol. It is mostly all frequency hopping anyway. I say this because of the 4096 bit resolution they state. I think it is a really nice radio. But balance and feel would be an issue for me.

    2 boys 2 girls. My girls seemed more enthused but all took on other interests growing up. It would have been nice if any of them kept a spark for it now that all of them are in their 30's. Cuz Dad would be hitting them up for RC goodies lol. I think I'm going to get some "payback" through the...

    Looking really good! Bet it flies straight right off the table! I'm impressed.Should have snuck in here earlier. I quite don't understand what you are asking about the 1"dowel. Is this acting as a "hard point" for the wing pins? If so I see no problems with your fix. The wing tube will absorb...

    In all my almost 40 years of aero-modeling I have never been. But I have heard people say it is the best camping, vacationing, RC flying, burn a hole in your pocket, vendor gathering, eyeball popping goodies, culinary home grown venue, stop and smell the roses, experience an RC'er could ever ask...
