great points. I have airplane sheets, with all the programming info on them...I think I copied them from my futaba owners manual. I keep em in a folder. Standardizing was my reason to sell off everything but my futaba systems.

RE: Re-building Casburn King Lucky Fly
I had a nice one I built back in the 80s. I picked the kit up from Joe Pinkston in Grand Prairie...he had aquired the casburn tooling and name. I put an asp91 in it swingin a 14 6 prop. I flew it well into the 90s ....someone new to our site turned on, and my luckfli bored a hole in the ground. When I got back to the pits, the guy was gone...never seen him again. So finding this one, after searching for 10 years or more for one, made it worth all the hassle of fixin it right. Honestly, the best flying plane I ever owned.....EVER. [8|] [:D] [8D] :)

RE: Re-building Casburn King Lucky Fly
Hope it holds for ya...:) Im gonna try to post pics...if it works, i will add descriptin... Had to add balsa on wingsaddle to get the wing aligned with H stab. It will be done nicely, those are test spacers . The rear of the wing will also be blended in. The engine compartment has been built up...it was totaly open like an old trainer, on the sides and top. Wingtips were squares...I rounded em off, and I will final sand em here shortly. You can se under the nose where I added a long thick block. Before, there was a flat bottom all the way to the spinner ring....that 3as wrong so I am sculpting a new front end. On the turtledeck pic, you can see some paint still needing removal....gawd....this thing had so much paint, wasnt even funny... Lat pic, you can see how round Im gettin it, as it was a big square nothin to begin with. Hope you like it!

Re-building Casburn King Lucky Fly
I found the plane hangin at wild bills for 100 bucks. Sadly, it wasnt built completely right, and the wings skins where glued on with 3m 77 spray...a big no no. It had been painted ....about 3 lbs worth of filler and paint. Looked like dog crap. Anyhow, I been messin with it on and off for some 7 years now. I just about have the paint all removed. Theres still some traces but I can smooth that out. Im gonna monokote the thing when Im done. I had to round off everything on the plane, as it was all left square....gawd! I rounded the nose, the wingtips, and the spinner area. I'm at the point where I want to create a fillet from the bottom of front fuse, to the wing bottom , for a smooth transition. Problem is, the builder made a hatch that the fuel tank sits on, and I have no idea as to the thickness of the bottom of the nose section,stated on the plans.....I have no plans for it. So, anyone have a plane for this plane? I will just blend it in with thick balsa if need be... Heres the other fixes Im doing. Remove all paint, and fillers, and recover in monokote. rebuild under nose section. Round all areas that need it. Feulproof the engine compartment. drill small holes in wing skins, run thin foam safe c.a. into the holes, to firmly attach the obeechie ply skins where they have lifted. I have some stuff done, some in the works. I'll post some pics if any intrested.... so...anyone have a plan for a johnny casburn king lucky fly? its the 90 size one. thanx d

RE: 72 mhz still ok?
Interesting indeed. Ive been out of the loop since 08 really, no punn intinded.... Been reading alot about 2.4. Seems theres alot of "lost communication" crashes . If the antenna in the airplane is positioned wrong, could lead to a crash. that in itsself scares me...:) We used to fly around a water tower...there was no vis on the plane for a few seconds , I'm guessing .. The way I understand it, on 2.4 ,a fella could lose control during that time. Now Im not sayin this to bash the new system, its just what I read about it from actual users. Im guilty of flyin behind a tree line over the years , and supposidly, that too can cause loss of signal connection. Of course, keeping the plane in sight is correct, but I think we all probly have had loss of sight for a moment here, or there. Dont forsee that any time soon LOL. I find it strange that they dont sell the new systems in 72 anymore ...or at least I dont see any listed. Manditory change will be coming I suspect.. I just want to be safe, and secure.
