    Scale Wendell Hostetler 30% Piper Cherokee Glass Fuselage Build.

    The photo below shows F5 and the rear most portion of the fuselage structure. You can see the difference of the original and what I plan to use. I plan to make the back half of the fuselage out of sheeted foam starting a F5 to the tail, all the lines represent how the hot wire will progress...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    I found #0 x 3/8" button head steel metal screws at Lebanon RC flea market last year, they were packaged in 500 each bags so I bought a bag.

    Gas Engines - Maximum Altitude?

    My home elevation is 825', I fly at two fields, the lower elevation is 1155', the higher is 1700', my engines run the same at each site, considering i run the engines on the ground at home and fly up to 400' (wink, wink) the Walbro carb can easily handle 1300' change in elevation.
