Sorry traveling overseas at the moment and just saw this post. There is an American company called 6mmRC who used to produce a kit by approval of The designer Steve Shumate. Not sure if they still ...

If it was the electricity line maintainence people I don't think they need to talk to council first. I believe that they have a master key that opens all parks and sports fields everywhere.

I was working on a plane around at Darren's place late this afternoon and I heard what seemed to be a motor bike in the distance. Hope they did not return after you guys finished today.

Yea these young blokes never know when they are on a good thing.:) Cars,skateboards and booze..I can understand BUT girlfriends?????? TROUBLE...

Look forward to catching up with you at vineyard Steve. How is Owen going? Is he flying these days?

Hi Steve, Kevin and I are now members of Vineyard(HMAS) club. As you probably know there is a heap of space out there and all sorts of aircraft fly there. The P61 twin engine night fighter that I bou...

Hi Guys Just wanted to let everyone know that both Kev and I have gone over to the "dark side" and now fly IC powered aircraft. In the near future we will also be getting a turbine. As as result w...

Sorry Steve got caught up with a few unexpected issues today will call you tomorrow afternoon.[hr] George got a copy of your post via email but don't see it on this thread. If you are still interested...

No Problems Steve I'll call you tomorrow (Tuesday) Paul

Hi Frank, Yes the Sabre is 70mm. I was using a 2650mh 4s battery but recommend that a bigger 5s would be better. [hr] Steve you can call me anytime you're free. I'm home most days

I need to create some funds to complete a new project, plus wife insists that I get some of my planes out of her sewing room. The following are ready to go just add your own receiver and battery. ...

Sorry guys a day late but I just heard this. A burglar broke into a house one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables when a voice in the dark said, 'Jesus knows you're here.' ...

You must have good eyes George. How could you tell it was an FMS catalogue?

yea mate take your time. I've got a few projects that have been on going for a couple of years :) Keep telling myself to stop buying and finish building but you know how it is. Can't help myself.

Hey George, What do you mean small size servoless retracts are the only ones that will fit? Lots of people on RCG using various retracts including the Eflite 25-46 size retracts. I agree that the stoc...

yep looking good George

Yes Steve it's looking pretty good. I won't see it myself until I return from Brisbane but that looks like a great job the contractor did with the willows. It really opens up the field now.

must be something about this model as I've done the same thing. Been sitting in box for about a year while I pondered on what I was going to do with it. Yours will be sighted first as I'm only just st...

Hey George, That FlyFly F100 should be good fun. I have one that I'm building too. I have the EPO version what is yours? Got Callie Graphics in USA to make me a set of decals for it and have also upgr...

Those of you who saw my Dynam T28 last weekend will remember that I complained that I had trouble getting it into the air. Well even though we tested the battery with 2 different meters at the field...

Yea mate already doing some research for the cockpit. :) As you say plenty of room in this one.

You are of course correct Steve. My Fault did not look close enough. Will find a new photo and edit post thanks

Santa has been very good to me this year. Pat and I came down to Canberra for an overnight stay and to pick up my new toy. It's a 2.26Metre Northop P-61 Black Widow Nightfighter. Flying weight wil...

looks nice George. I've been closely looking at the Black Horse Mitchell B25, very nearly hit the buy now button just the other day. It's only about 1600mm span but it's Balsa/ply construction and cov...

Nice report Steven

Thanks for the comments guys. Yes Steve motor upgrade will be something I'll be doing once I've had a couple of flights on stock with 4S. Have you found that you needed additional magnets on the batte...

Yea Dave I can see that the nose wheel will be a problem. May change out the struts after I've had a fly of it. Will also thread lock the screws all round. I intend to fly it with 4s too. Hey Steve wh...

One of my biggest regrets was never buyimg a Trojan when everyone else was, and then watching everyone have heaps of fun flying them. Well regrets no more!.......... I bought the Dynam T28 1270mm ...

That's the one I've bought.

LOL I have stirred up you sparkies haven't I :) Really appreciate you all taking the time to reply. My only intention with this generator is to use at the field to charge my lipo's nothing else (maybe...

Make sure it's pointing in the right direction. My mate set fire to his wife's prized rose bush. :)

Confused ?.......yep. :) Thanks for the advice will see about getting a copper earth rod. Just to be safe. :)

I have just bought a portable generator (900W) to take to the fields with me to charge my batteries. Reading the instruction booklet it suggests that it be earthed via an earthing rod and cable. ...

Amazing..............What was holding back that trailer from taking off?

Yep I agree with you Claudio, Steve and Dave I read it as All provisions have to apply to be considered a park fliyer.

Thanks guys hope to see you all on the weekend.

Thanks for the info Gaz.

Great news John Well done.

Sounds great Steve I'm doing the school run in the morning how about I call in on the way back? Say around 9:30 or is that a bit too early? Also can you PM me your address again paul.j01 at bigpond.co...

Hi Steve Thanks for that. If possible I wouldn't mind trying to pickup during the week so that I can have it flying by the weekend. What day/time suits you for me to call around?

Hi Steve I'll take the P51 off you. Been wanting another one for awhile now. Great timing.

Got my 2 power supplies over the weekend. Did the mod and they are working great thanks again Dennis much appreciated.

Most water based acrylics will work ok on Depron. I use my wifes old stock of folk art paints. :) You can also apply a clear spray to harden the paint after just be sure to keep the can well back from...

me too.....

I'm hoping to be down the field in the morning. Thinking of bringing my Dauntless and Meteor. Will see what the wind is like first.

Hi Steve forgot about those 2 power supplies you have for me. Meant to mention them last night when I saw you. Looks like it will have to be next weekend now what with Father's Day this week.

Hi Ben Connect both plugs when charging. What charger do you have? Is it a Hobby King one? If so you need to adjust the total amps for your particular battery. eg. If you have a 2200Mah 3s battery set...

Great Video Mate Very Professional. Love it

Great footage George. Love that camera angle.
