Daughter has just changed cars from an 03 206 entice to an 03 206cc.
She has 17 inch alloys on the Entice, will they fit straight on to the
cc or is the offset different? I suspect they are the same but just
need confirmation.

I've been a desk pilot for many years (MicroSoft FlightSimulator)now and
I want to do some real flying so I bought a model, a glider, the Protech
Fuego. I've not started building it yet because there is one thing that
is confusing me.

Hello, fellows.
A couple of days ago I purchased an OS.40 engine, and then today I
purchased a couple of motor mounts for it.  Now I have discovered that
the needle valve assembly is where one of the motor mounts will need to

Just got a Butterfly motor glider from a swap meet. I have a 25fp OS for
power. Will that be too much engine? What would a good prop to use?

held the 1/2A proto CL record for the AMA for a number of years.
It is made in China and comes with an unique accessory:  a functioning ...

I have a TT .40 pro that has a carb with a lot of problems I cant solve
by adjusting the needles. It was owned by someone else then I got it.
The high end mix wont shut off the fuel. I check for blockage and wear
but no noticeable stuff. The low end will shut off the fuel. Could ...

My father has been retired for a while and doesn't get around much
anymore. He is looking to build a model plane kit for the pleasure of
building it - this kit will not be flown.  Although he is no engineer,
he is looking for more than a weekend project.

I need to identify three planes I have.  Is there a binary group I could
post pics to?  -  One of the planes might not be too difficult because it
has a name on it, but the other two don't.  I know nothing about this sort

the ground at about 3/4 throttle.  I think the culprit was a solder ...

I have just installed Hitec HS-55's all round on my T-Rex after having
the Align 9g servo's installed on all but the tail.
I am extremely disapointed in the quality of the horns with the servo's.
 they are very flimsy compared to the Align ones, and introduce a lot
