I don't know yet, waiting on my GlowPlugBoy fuel to come in Smile

No that won't help.
Glow plug boy you may want to add a little bit of castor to that as it only has 17%

WingingIt74 Sun Jan 08, 2012 1:00 pm

Just a few table spoons of it is good you want 20% castor ideally.
Go to the Pharmacy and get USP castor oil or anything de gummed.

Jeremy's Uncle said he has a bunch of 049 parts that I can have once he finds them. I'm anxious to see what's there Smile

WingingIt74 Sun Jan 08, 2012 1:13 pm

Once the video is uploaded, I'll show you what the 051 was mounted on Smile

SICK that thing looks like fun!

It's fun to turn up the volume and listen to Randy's comments. He is building is 3rd full-size kit plane.

nitroairplane Sun Jan 08, 2012 5:01 pm

Must have been so much cooler on glow power though.

WingingIt74 Sun Jan 08, 2012 5:04 pm

He liked it better as electric as he didn't have a throttle Smile

I like electric because it's cleaner and less of a hassle.

nitroairplane Sun Jan 08, 2012 5:05 pm

He could have one though Smile

WingingIt74 Sun Jan 08, 2012 5:06 pm

Back then? There where only full-size servos available, which it would of added too much weight.

nitroairplane Sun Jan 08, 2012 5:11 pm

Yes but they also only had the battery packs,escs and heavier motors Smile

Jeremy is now converting another of his Uncle's planes. This one is a 15 size Ercoupe that his Uncle's, it's in my CLSSY56 videos.

I think you will survive Wink

besides, electric planes may survive longer as the wood doesn't get oil soaked. That particular one weighs a ton and the 15 is pretty much worn out. It was used a lot prior to being installed in this one.

nitroairplane Sun Jan 08, 2012 5:47 pm

I dunno when flying a normal electric that is not 3d or anything it jus feels like you are doug nothing.
Yeah it is fun but no way as fun as fuel power.
Remember your daddy o what will it be powered by?
