RE: Guillows planes ?
i like there stuff. they do fly if you build them right and light. the last one i built was a fokker dr1. it flys and crashes nicely. i built a lot of there stuff when i started in this hobby. maybe its just nostagia talking but go get one and build it.

RE: Everything Radial Engines
I emailed authentic scale a few months back about the 4 row they were developing. got a answer. was told early 2013. Looks like they are going to build some good looking and hopefully good running stuff.

RE: choosing a servo! i need help
Great info! keep it coming. I thought metal gears were the way to go in large scale. I was thinking strength. any part #s you guys use? Im over thinking it big time. Its a gee bee and my pilot skills are not sharp. Ill be cutting the servos out after the crash anyway :).

RE: 33% Gee Bee Hostetler Build
Back to building, I finished the rudder this weekend and fitted it to the plane. not so easy. all my fiberglass stuff came in also. now it time to put the major parts together and have a plane! the cowl is so big its not even funny. I dont think they make a engine big enough to fill it. (radial)

RE: 33% Gee Bee Hostetler Build
i used the airfoil provided on the plans. Its still a toy airplane to me .I want it to look like the real deal when done and i dont think anyone will think its a cessna because I didnt use the original design. :)

RE: 33% Gee Bee Hostetler Build
I got my new landing gear from sierra today. look awesome. how do you guys mount them? they have 6 small holes on the mounting pads. do i just use small self tapping screws into hard wood or drill out and bolt them into the wood? any thoughts?

RE: Need some advice for C-123 project
I agree with brad on this. dont build it so big. your going to need a hanger and a real airport to fly it. how are you going to transport it? I doubt 2 radials will pick it off the ground. I would love to see a 123 with jet pods on it though. you have to build this. can you post pics of the read deal you get to play with? r3350 power?

RE: 33% Gee Bee Hostetler Build
hello, Its been a while since anyone has posted here. I have to admit im cheating on my build. I developed some reaction to ca glue and the kicker just knocks me on my a.... I sent out my fuselage to a local hobby store for the sheeting . ill post the build progress as I am starting up on it. My full size radial engine building/collecting hobby as taken up way to much time and money so it back to small scale stuff for a few months. anyone else have a build going?
