RE: RCGF Engines
I burned the first tank today of gas mixed 32:1 t to play with the needle on my old RCGF 26. The engine was a pain to start and turned barely 6700 RPM with Xoar 17x8 or Mejlzlick 16x10. The high needle valve is open 2 turns and low valve has one turn. I fly at sea level. I can not use APC prop because the propeller shaft is not fully threaded with 5mm. I thing the chinees did only 2 threads on the shaft.. My goal was to spin a 17'' prop over 7.5K RPM but after what have seen, i must go with the 15'' prop. Do not know how it'll look on a 4'' spinner.. I not impressed at all. Daniel

Thanks Dan. Are the Carden's gears milled from Carden shop workers or they sell TNT milled landing gears? Daniel

RE: Extreme Flight 110" 100cc Yak 54 Build!
Hello diamondave I liked the Biela 26x10 on my Super ZDZ80 and KS-95 canister better than Mejlzick 26x10. The Mejzilck 26x10 spined 300 RPM faster than Biela and it's a better 3 prop at 6700 RPM but the biela 26x10 at 6400 RPM is better IMAC/3D prop for my flying style (60% IMAC, 40% 3D). Daniel

My 35% 260 did the same thing after 150 flights. I have simply put some drops of thin CA over the stab tube to fill the gap between the tube and stab tube.

RE: USB commander replacement?
I use my sim mostly to practice IMAC and precision flying. The sticks are not broken but they have a slack at the neutral position. I can not move the sticks by 1/8''without the wanted effect on the plane. I can not screw both sticks on the commander? It looks like they are not enough long to find the bolts into the commmander or the bolts are stripped? If i pull the sticks, they come easily out of the game commander. Daniel

Hi Lee i was refering to other planes (35% or 40%) than EF and. I did not have problems on smaller planes with Graphteck but it's another story with 35% and bigger planes. I broke Graphteck gears on 33% WH 260 and 35% Carden 260. Daniel

RE: Extreme Flight 110" 100cc Yak 54 Build!
Hey Lee Did you put an aluminum landing or the stock CF gear? I have used Graphteck CF gears in the past wihtout to much success.. It seems the gear tends to delaminate a little bit after each landing and it breaks after 150 -200 flights. Whatever you do, it'll beak one of these days. I am whilling to sacrifice a few onces to get an aluminum gear. Daniel

Either motor is a great performer and you really cannot go wrong either way... Rick [/quote] I am sure the IMAC judges would not like to hear your set up but it shall be great 3D combo.
