RE: FM-2 Widcat LG 1983 March MAN
[quote]ORIGINAL: Chad Veich [quote]ORIGINAL: Wagon1 Good luck with that. I've had the plans for about 15 years and pull them out every once in awhile. I just shake my head and roll them back up. My brother has access to a CNC machine so I think we could make the parts for the gear....it's the fuselage that I don't get. No longerons, etc. Once you get started, please keep us posted. I'd love to see how you progress. [/quote] You make me up a set of gear and I will CAD up a Wildcat and laser cut a kit for it. I promise my fuselage will be easy to understand! I've already got the Karllson plans and would base my design on his drawings but with a much simpler method of construction. [/quote] Hi think i have thouse plans too will watch with interest chad Andy

RE: The RCFW Hellcat Group Build
[quote]ORIGINAL: Chad Veich Andy, The flaps will work as designed, although some minor concessions to scale will have to be made. Nothing that I think is going to be too noticeable on this sport scale model however. And I hate to beat a dead horse but I flew my Hellcat two more times this past Monday, including some slow flight testing, and I will reiterate my opinion that flaps are uneccessary on this model if kept relatively light. Even my nearly 12 pound prototype slows down well and shows absolutely no tendency to drop a wing unless really horsed around at slow speed. In a completely power off, full up elevator slow flight situation the airplane can be steered around with rudder and will simply mush forward without tip stalling. With flaps this thing will probably land like the proverbial butterfly with sore feet! I will try and get my flaps wrapped up ASAP so I can update the web site to show the process. [/quote] Hi Chad Thanks for the reply must admit i,m swaying towards no flaps after reading your previous posts , will keep you updated Andy P.s love the photos on the chino thread awresome P40

RE: The RCFW Hellcat Group Build
[quote]ORIGINAL: Chad Veich [quote]ORIGINAL: lightning 759 Hi Chad quick question when you cut for the flaps how close do they run to the wheel wells only i,ve removed the skins and my cuts are roughly into the wells or will be if i cut the ribs to release the flaps, not sure but i think i might be slightly out somewere, if so think i will go with the basic wing no flaps thanks andy [/quote] Oh
