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

    That's what I wanted to hear thanks! I have heard of people using the VVRC 40cc in that plane, and was thinking a DA35 would be sweet. How did the CG feel with them big tires?

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

    I'm getting curious about this setup. I've looked at PR bush wheels for a while know, may have to pull the trigger one of these days. Your cub... which engine is under the cowl? I have a friend with that ARF in the box still... I saw you went to the field, what did you think of the performance...

    News Great Planes dealers beware

    The big thing for me is to actually touch and see an airplane in person before the purchase. For that I am disappointed in mfgrs like Extreme Flight and AJ. They don't post enough pictures of their models let alone don't take the time to post a picture of the actual model and not it's bigger or...

    News Great Planes dealers beware

    Well it looks like Horizon upped their dealer sales from 60k to 120k or so I've been told. tough Times for the LHS. At least you don't live in Alaska and all your packages come from USPS, UPS, FedEx to Alaska Air Cargo then dispersed back to USPS, UPS, FedEx LOL! Don't even get me started on...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I had that happen to me in 2007... I just paid the club dues, only one flying at the time. I was having a blast flying my slab up and down both runways LOL. Someone came up behind me and proudly stated I cannot use both runways. Kinda put a bitter taste in my mouth (like yelling at a puppy dog)-...

    Scale Top Flite P-40 Build Thread

    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...
