    Fuel for Saito?

    Everybody Love's Model Technics Formula Irvine fuel's! Be it Sport 5%, Contest 10% or Champion 20%. I've never run or sold the regular str. Irvine stuff, so can't comment about that! Also if run Formula Irvine fuels with you OS / Irvine engines, there will not be a problem if you engine stops working, when OS come to look at it! The only down side to Formula Irvine fuel is, after the fuel is burnt you get some black crap over the plane & inside the ext. / engine!
  3. I hope this turns out well for the club! Will be nice to have a electric day out at our field! Maybe just maybe, we could turn it into a BBQ as well or a fly-in!?..... There afew bank holidays coming up, but don't think we will have ago ahead for sometime!
  4. All looks like it went well!

    Capiche 140ex

    Indeed what a nice flyer! Sounded the part to Looks like you are going to have alot of fun with that bird! I always thought the Capiche was a " Fan-boys " plane, but after seeing how it flow on your first flights, I have changed my mind! And that was only your test flighs I hold you will hold my hand, when I test fly the new club trainer plane later on today! Lets just hope its as stable as the Capiche was

  13. Miss Hupboard "me" went to her fuel cupboard today and all she could find was nothing..................."Apart from Magnum %12 and its second hand stuff as well" Here are some other types of hinges out there, here are afew more to start you off :- Nylon hinge " old school man " Hinge tape "that 3M tape stuff" Live hinging " not a hinge its self, but the best...well the sound they make it cool anyway" Ball join hinge "use on shockys plane" Fowler Flap Hinge " for scale birds, super great" Polyprop hinge "Abit like Robart barbed hinge finger type, but don't have the metal pin!
  14. A Cheese plane........hrhrhrhrhr :-
  15. Decals are very good !
  16. Still trying to upload them photos..... if you can't like Leon said, for the time being sent them to me or him!
  17. .......A real Pro! Put's all them ARTF to shame that I sell!
  18. Good to hear we have got another show and the date is set! Can't wait to help out again!
  19. Best thing to do is add up in your head how much everything would cost new! e.g servo, RX, Kit, ext leads, switch's, etc. etc. Then work out 40% of that! Or look at the internet / Ebay / BMFA and see what price's scond hand stuff is going for, then add it up again! But you can't tell how much it worst an till you have seen it with your own eyes..........maybe the air flame could be pooed up or something like that. Before buying have a good look all around, ask him / her if they can show you the engine running or even the servos working etc. etc.!
  20. Good to hear..... Coming back to a field near you soon, on Wednesday.....?
  21. All I'm hearing at the shop about the show is :- Great, super, to cool, great good done by CAMFC..etc...etc And may , along with all that! The only down side, some people are saying is there wasn't enth / many RC Helicopters displays / slots.... But the full size made up for it, for the most part Also added to that, there wasn't many Helo stands / traders e.g Fast Lads, Real Raptor's & T-RexMad!

    artf at-6 texan

    Best thing is to bring it to the field on Sunday or even the Club night next week. And get people to show / tell you want to do! "talk about it m8" Remote glows are very easy to find, and you only have to cut a hole smaller than a 1p coin / about the size of a 5p coin, for the part were you put the glow starter on! So you can have that around the bottom of the cowling somewhere! Or like you said you can be a Pro and have it under a hatch or something like that, but that's alot of work and time! Same also can be done with on / off switch's or charging months to!
  23. You look like a Mini-Joe in that photo !
  24. Now all you need is the good weather, to test fly your new pylon racer Weather = atm
