Gday KV You need to think about what you want to achieve. Paul and Gazza's methods will add strength to your airframe and provide a good glossy finish due to the addition of fibreglass. My method j...

Gday Wobbly Personally speaking I would 30 min epoxy the bugger. Then, use what you have left on the skyfun. Cheers Rob B

Gday Paul Interesting, seems to be many variations on this technique that you have explored. Thanks for the info on what you used for the L39, that really does look nice. This technique that you a...

Dunno mate? http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=10102&Product_Name=Gale_Force_Winds (40_Knot_version) I am assuming it is the Bind and Fly variety. Cheers Rob B

Gday Paul I think there is a slight diff in regards to how I have done this, I put 2 light coats of the poly on 1st, then sanded, then painted, and another thicker coat of the poly over the top. Th...

Gday All Discovered something interesting last night. I am revamping Ted Stryker and gave it the polyurethane coat treatment. (Thanks for all the info on this Paul and Steve) :thumbup:. What I disc...

Gday Steve /All Interesting forecast following, the current synoptics are quite unusual thus resulting in the severe weather in Vic and South NSW and the protracted rain that occured today. I was s...

Gday All Pretty average weather out there right now and rain has been light and persistent all night, gonna be a soggy field for sure. Raining now however looking at the radar and the TAF it should...

Gday Gazza Nah mate was looking for a programmer for digital servos not esc's. Kieran advised that HK do not have them but any brand will be ok as they are "generic". Also, love the way you are ...

Gday All I have just ordered the digital servo's as per Kierans advice. However I cannot locate a programming doodat thingy? Is it just me or has the format of the HK website changed slightly? I ...

Gday Gaz I think the laws of physics have been respected however they have shown a complete contempt to your good self in this instance. Looks repairable though, canopy would be the tough job ther...

Gday Kieran The gear would stay off if I am hand launching, I'd love to get into retracts however I have sort of resigned myself to the fact that due to the dirt bike morons the field is going to b...

Gday Kieran Yeh Darren also suggested getting the fans from Extreme RC, will go that way as I could not be arsed balancing a HK fan which I suspect would be about as balanced as Mark Latham. How...

Gday All Just beginning work on the sniper that I scored off Darren and I have a couple of queries. Darren- What was the model of the mg digital servo's you recommended? Also, Darren sparked ...

Gday Steve That pogo will absolutely hammer, why am I not surprised you have the poor thing now sucking 82 amps after only one flight. :thumbup: Quick question, with the A10 did you Y-Lead the ...

Damn Steve, too long time no see. Here's the weather report for tomorrow from BOM. Forecast for Sunday Unsettled. Mostly stormy. Tornadic rotations from the north west. Precis: Tornados, c...

Gday Simon I agree with Ingo, the HK stuff I have purchased has been all ok. The best bit is that most of the club are familiar with their products and Kieran does a kick ass job making it all hap...

Is this what Kieran was punting around the other week? If so, I was surprised how zippy it was. Seriously considering getting one however will wait to see Steve's 4700kv motored version to provide a...

Gday Simon Top looking aircraft, will be a nice addition to the PRCAC fleet if you decide to purchase. I have often toyed with getting floats for my uber cub and heading off to a lake with Mr Pell...

Good Stuff Kev, thanks heaps for that. Just have to check though, should my team be concerned that they may get hit by something whilst wearing these vests? Cheers Rob Byrnes

Gday All Wondering if someone may be able to help me out with the below. Myself and some members of my team will be giving a hardcore corporate presentation in Brisbane next friday (25/06/10). We...

Whahahahahahahaha. Good one Steve. Wait till' Kev gets the PC9 up in the air, you're gonna get chewed up bigtime. Or, may I suggest a Stryker vs Funjet combat sortie? I'd sell tickets to watch th...

Gday Drew Well your issue above certainly adds to the "urgency" of the situation. May I suggest the use of CTRL A (select all) when your wife places order? Bear in mind, of late, due to various is...

Gday Kieran I cannot seem to edit orders in the group order thread? It states that the thread is locked? Cheers Rob B

Gday Stephen I am surprised that you flew last weekend due to the weather leading up to the day. Having said that I had a wedding on Saturday that left me quite damaged until about Tuesday. Whe...

Gday All Did anyone fly yesterday at all, and, is anyone having a shot today? Not sure what the field is like however the weather was good yesterday and last night. Cheers Rob B

Gday All We had a massive amount of rain at Toonie last night, likely the field will be rather swampy come the weekend. Does anyone have a set of floats to suit a 2m span Cub? Cheers Rob B

Gday Kieran Thanks for the additional info re how this all came about. I await with great anticipation Bruce's review. It appears that the Horizon's/ Oreilly's style of business (Dictatorial Mono...

Gday Kieran I hope they are good stuff, the price can't be argued with. I am just a little wary as Spektrum stopped them from selling the receivers and then a few months later they have a clone re...

I for one will need to read a bus load of reviews before I take the chance with these. Cheers Rob B

Mornin' All Seeing as the weather forecasts have been a bit ominous here is the latest from Airservices: General MET Briefing ------------------------------------------------------------------------...

Gday Steve No way doI have the skills or an appropriate aircraft to fly however I'd love to come out and have a look if I can hitch a ride with someone? 8-) Cheers Rob B

Gday Drew Nice one however you have only just begun, now you need to drill a zillion holes in what's left. Have a look at my photos on the easy sport rebuild thread to see what I mean. Cheers Rob B

Gday Kieran Not really heartbreaking as I have heaps of servos of that size so no big loss. Still want to know what the issue was though so have kept the servo and will pull it apart at a later date....

Gday Kieran Thanks for the advice, I had retested and swapped out the servos and retested with my 36mhz receiver. The issue became highly intermittent/ random on both 36meg and 2.4 Remedy, 2 new serv...

Gday All I have a question, I have installed one of my new 2.4g receivers in the uber cub pursuant to taking her for a fly today however have come across an interesting issue. One of the aileron serv...

Ripper Stuff Kieran, that photo is almost as pretty as Gary's Sukhoi. When will be around to distribute these? Cheers Rob B

Gday Ingo I'll pop down mate. Give me an sms when you are leaving and I will meet you there. Cheers Rob B

Gday Steve Thanks for the heads up re the replacement motor mount, I am pretty sure that when I get confident with the Stryker it will probably end up getting "turbo charged" and thus require a stron...

Gday All Here's a quick fleet update: 1.64m EP Glider (now 50% Zap-A-Gap) -- Rippin along happily with an improved motor that came out of Kieran's old MX. Top fun to fly! :D GWS P40 Warhawk -- It...

Gday All I will be down today at some stage of the game, have a mountain of clothes washing to do first. Cheers Rob B

That does look pretty cool Steve, however 5 secs is a long time without throttle, could be very interesting!! It would be heaps better if you could tailor the "hit" response for specific members airc...

Gday All I will also be at the field tomorrow, charging and checking is occuring as we "speak". Looking forward to maidening a new, yet familiar to us, addition to the Robair fleet. Cheers Rob B

Gday Chris I have a 13*4 and 13*6.5. I'll bring them down on sat just in case. What are you jamming that on the nose of? Cheers Rob Byrnes
