RE: RE:
When Bill e-mailed me for my thrust info I went to my plans and have notes written all over them for the "next time build" Each one improves over the builds! I have the G&S glass and in the process of building my "last one" (keep teling myself that), but they just have that oooooh and ahhhhh factor is why I stick with them Pat

RE: RE:
Allen, Over the years and builds of these wonderful birds (5) I use out-thrust on all my 310's. The only one that I didnt was my first Nosen. I used OS max 60's on it and to this day dont know why it flew,but it did! Bill asked me what I used on my 310's and I told him 2-3 deg out-thrust on both engines and 2 deg down-thrust. The orig Nosen manual said 0-0 for thrust lines. But that was for 60 sized motors!! My Top Flite 310 ARF even has out-thrust on both motors and down-thrust. It measres 4 deg out and 2 deg down. One of the 'ole timers" in our club said something about out-thrust keeps air pinned to the rudder for control.

You really want to have "sticker shock" go to fleabay and type in unbuilt airplane kits and hold on to your wallet. I have a few but mostly have been building these past years.

RE: Pacific Aeromodel Clipped Wing Monocoupe Build
Stickbuilder, Kangke has the full wing version in 1/4 scale and in 1/5 scale(60 size) Go to www.kangkeusa.com and check it out. Until someone renews the contract with whom ever made the Pacific Aero Cliped wing we will just have to wait and see. Im glad I snagged a spare and put it away till I wear my present one out. I too am like Richard and am recovering one in the Little Butch N36Y color scheme. 2 years ago I got one from Pacific Aero uncovered and am just now getting around to covering it. Being retired I dont know where the time goes, I used to have lots of time to get planes done!

RE: Pacific Aeromodel Clipped Wing Monocoupe Build
I have been flying my Coupe now for 3 yrs and have worn out one G26. I rebuilt it(ring &cylinder honing) and now it runs as good as new. I gave up on hand starting after a few sessions of trying to throw out my shoulder. I use a standard Sullivan starter by flooding the whizz out of the engine, backing it up on compression to give the starter a run at it and crank it over. It spins fast enough to get a spark out of the mag and off it goes. Has been a reliable first crank starter ever since. Hot starts are just a bump and go!

Did you have to add any weight to balance? I have one too and keep trying to get started putting in an old OS 20 4 stroker in it.If weight is an issue, I will resort to digging out a saved nib OS10.

RE: Pacific Aeromodel Clipped Wing Monocoupe Build
Jim, you done good! Thats so purty! I have found out over the years that the easiest ways are the simplest solution! As for the magnets on the hatch, not to worry, I have over 300 flights and the magnets havnt let go yet. I bent apiece of wire in the shape of a handle and zapped it on the back edge of the hatch to ease opening it. Sure wish I had been thinking and installed my switches and charging jacks inside insted of through the fuse.

Is that a shot of your "Coupe"? I have been trying to get ahold of Pacific and get another. Seems like the supply line has dried up. I should have my "spare coupe" recovered like the Lil Butch racer for summer. Everyone have a Happy New Year, keep the shiny side up and the rubber side down! Pat
