RE: EasyTiger Turbine T-45 All Fiberglass including Wings!
Bought a small foamie from him, excellent deal and loved the plane. In fact, liked it so much that I am working in a scaled up version of it. Nothing to say about Curtis but good things. Enrique

RE: Bandit ARF CG w/P-80 & large hopper?
Hello Herman: You need to rotate the aircraft over the main wheels to achieve takeoff. This cannot be done if you don´t have enough downforce on the elevator at the takeoff run. You may need extra elevator throw or perhaps more speed at takeoff specially if there is a significant shift on the CG caused by the hopper tank.... This is one of the reasons that I installed canards on this two jets. I have a extra force applied on this airplanes allowing the takeoff run be as short as I want. Like Mr.Matt and B.Man suggested, increasing the elevator throw will resolve the problem, or if you prefer, use a 120 N thrust engine or even try to fly from a longer runway. Enrique

RE: BVM Bandit cloning in Brazil
[quote]ORIGINAL: anonfly [quote]ORIGINAL: AMA234 I find it very interesting that the original poster joined TODAY and also posted this information on his 1st post and didn't even sign his name to his post. I am betting that he is the one cloning the models and posted the links to attract people to his site in hopes of sales. If we were allowed to I would call him an idiot; but since we aren't allowed to I will refrain from doing so. Les [/quote] AMA234, I'm brazilian too and flying jets for many years! I'm RCU member but i decide to create a new profile to make this information arrive in BVM factory and friends. I think that patented products copy is not correct. Copies as Skymaster, ZN line, Carden and BVM now! Please i prefer keep my anonimous. Tks [/quote] What a despicable and coward action you have just done, throwing feces on other country´s forum under a anonimous name. Gustavo Alonso is a small r/c builder wich would love to sell original BVM airplanes as a rep, but our country´s economic and legislative status simply make this impossible for a living. You can bet he will never sell one of them in Texas or Europe.. neither many in our own country, as most turbine guys here already prefer to buy the originals from BVM. I can only think that you are in a personal vendetta with Gustavo and not very worried about what is right or not. Sorry to see a presumably jet modeler acting like this.. Enrique

RE: Skymaster F-16 1/8 Leading Edge Flaps, Air Brakes and Operating Canopy
Nice pics and thanks for posting them, but for practical purposes the hinge method ilustrated in Guillermo´s post seems safer for a r/c model.. I like the way the slat "seats" on the wing leading edge.

[quote]ORIGINAL: Hugh Heffner Wow, a real plastic B2 model. Dude, that is almost as big an acheivement as the guy building a B1 with 4xp200's truly impressed. The detail work is.......wow when are you going to ''fly'' your plastic model? Maybe you can maiden it next to the B1 RC model. That would be awesome. Does RCU even have a plastic model section this post could be moved to? [/quote] Some people use small plastic models as a reference for a big scratch built project... there is nothing wrong in posting them here, In my opinion. just the opposite. Now let the guy express himself and show his work in his own way in this B-2 thread.

RE: Why P120 size is so little popular
The 1/5 SM MB339 is very good and a joy to fly.. however the best results with it are with a Titan or a Rhino, specially on grass. The F15 is a great and easy flying plane for a 120, but perpendicular telescopic gear legs and grass runways don´t mix too well!

RE: Jetjoe 3000 turbine
Tim, you are a lucky guy for having people like Mark (Woket) and Leon (Jetjunky) enlighten you! [sm=thumbs_up.gif],, Mark is a long time RCU friend and one seriously competent guy to discuss this kind of things and Leon is one of the coolest and also competent r/c modelers I ever met. For the people reading this and thinking that I am another cheap turbine basher, no I am not. I understand the motivation and general desire for a affordable turbine but for now, if you want to do things right, spend a little more in the initial investiment (just Us$1k) and you will have a much greater chance of success on the sport. Don´t try to be by proxy the product development test dummy for any company, as flying r/c jets is already challenging! Best regards to all, Enrique.
