    Who makes custom mufflers?

    Just wondering who makes custom mufflers? Possibly need a set for my BME102 as the stock ones are really tight to the carb and throttle pushrod. Any idea how much for a twin? Thanks! Bart

    Replacing Ignition Caps

    Just replaced two spark plug caps on my BME102 for the Cub build. The hardest part was getting the tip of the resistor into the silicone cap. It was necessary to stick the tip of an awl through the membrane in the silicone cap that the wire of the resistor will protrude through. Other than...

    fair enough but keep in mind I'm here 7 days a week, sometimes all day and though I run the site I've been in and around rc planes since 1983 so the same things that bring you here bring me here. i'm not going to promise anyone that every word out of my typing finger will be on target but i'd...

    thank you! that's almost all of it. the fact that it blew up in my face shows how difficult it is to discuss without sounding like a d-bag myself.

    i'm fine with people posting build threads! of course I'm ok with that! i said it was odd that so many people are affiliated with manufacturers or vendors, considering the community is relatively small it means a lot of the activity is sponsored pilots promoting stuff to other sponsored...

    go ahead and post whatever you want @ericb the rules above are all our members will have to worry about. i may formalize a few details for vendors/manufacturers but that won't affect our members.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    hey, no mentions of Uncle Bill unless he's an advertiser! ok, just kidding, i'll go back in my hole now.

    A quick reminder

    fair enough, call it what you will but there are a lot of people from our community of flyers that are affiliated with a shop or manufacturer.

    You can mention servos other than MKS but I'd ask you consider MKS when making a purchase. :)

    Here's the short list of rules for the site. Keep in mind, yes I run the site but I'm a modeler first like you guys and I don't enjoy having to make rules. No smut. There is enough of that everywhere else so let's keep it out there and not in here. Be friendly. Please only post links to...

    I'm up early after drinking coffee too late last night, there's a huge misunderstanding going on here which ii'll address later this morning. Sorry for the confusion

    A quick reminder

    sorry for posting the long answer first.....Yes. I'm thinking about whether or not we need to ask manufacturers to be enlisted at the site as advertisers before their team members can post reviews and other promotions. It all goes back to who is supporting the site and who is just taking...

    A quick reminder

    you know what's also weird? there are so many sponsored pilots you guys are all promoting stuff to each other! i don't quite get that one but feel free to post your content. if nobody advertises then we'll eventually run out of steam and the manufacturers will have to find someplace else to...

    Thanks for the reply. I guess you can call it competition but we're just trying to do a similar thing differently than it's been done so far. We're not here trying to build a strong community so that every other site can come along and have a pool of like minded people with which to build...
