RE: Rom-Air retracts parts help
Chuck, going to 100 psi is acceptable. but! do not leave it sitting on the flight line with more than 60psi. the reason is it gets hot inside the plane on hot sunny days, if you charge to 100psi then set the plane for an hour the pressure will increase with heat and you will blow a line off a barb. they make a plethora of things to hold the line on the barb for people that charge to 120psi but they cause other problems so remembering to retract the gear on the walk back to the pitts and holding off on charging till you are ready to walk out to the flight line works great and costs no $$$$. i personally use 80psi, so one cycle gets me right were i want the pressure to be Joe

RE: That nasty AT-6 Bounce
Ron, i think you r headed in the correct direction. one other thing that showed some promise was crow mode, i had the ailerons go up when the throttle when below 40% and the wheels were down. but that is a lot of programing! ill never do it again. Joe

RE: Rom-Air retracts parts help
Chuck, the hose coming off your pump goes on a barb at the pump. pull the hose off the pump and put the hose going to the fill valve to that. then pump it up. Steve, I've tried a few electrics, just bought a pair of Lado's for the Black horse macchi 200. I never payed more than 30 bucks for rhom-air's so they have a special place in my heart (haha), coughing up almost 10x for just the mechanism was hard. I'm concerned if they will suffer from the same problems mechanical s do, inability to lift heavy struts & wheels reliably. over my thirty + years my plane size and mass has increased, i still use the rhom-airs and they just keep on keepin on. electrics will have to prove them selves, and against rhom's they are more costly and have alot of moving parts.

RE: That nasty AT-6 Bounce
Ron, i moved the wheels back by shimming the front lg ear. ended up with 3/16 before it started other bad habbit's. then with a wheel landing and killing the flaps at touch down it was pretty reliable. mine was a flop tite hollywood zero Joe

RE: Rom-Air retracts parts help
pappy, your problem is that the fill taper is not fitting correctly and when you hit 40psi the extra escapes. the check is easy, remove the fill check valve from the system. plug that line into your pump, and it will come up to pressure. Joe

RE: pica or top flight p-51
Jason, the pica kit is built by gluing a bunch of small balsa blocks together then carving away everything that does not look like a p51. It fly’s fine, though the recommended engine size is to small for the final wt. mine was 22# with silk span for covering. I started with the recommended super tiger 2500 but it was way under powered and I quickly switched to a g-62 and then it was happy. To recap pica is a project! And will be over wt got flot tite (top flite). Joe
