I've built a couple of trainers and would really like to build a P-51
Mustang now.  However, I've read a couple of things that suggest that
such a project might still be a little advanced for me.  So, I have a
couple of questions.  First, does anyone have a recommendation for a

This past Wednesday night, October 25, we invited 'Smiles for Little
Faces' (a Make-a-Wish group) to our club meeting. A check for $10,000
(!!) was presented to them, and was the proceeds from our September

I want to sell a used transmitter and would like advice on the best
(meaning more exposure) place to sell it; either ebay or rcuniverse or
perhaps a different rc auction house.
Thanks

I'm debating between the OS 120 S-E four stroke or the 1.20AX.  Looking at
the on-line manuals for each, OS recommends a 400 CC (14 oz) tank for the
four stroke for about 10 minutes flights and, oddly enough, a 350 CC (12 oz)

Have an unusal problem that has just surfaced with my near new OS 52 4
Stroke....
Never had a problem priming it until recently it would not prime at all.

I built a 1/6th great lakes special a number of years ago, from a plan from
Model world (I think it is a Gordon Whitehead design).
It has always been a bit of a handful, with a fast flying speed due to its
weight.

I just read Ed Creeger's comments on propping the trainer with the SC.40
(whatever the SC.40 is). Ed's comment indicated that a 10x6 prop would fly
the plane, but wouldn't offer the braking that the 11x5 would. Nor would the
10x6 get the plane off the ground as quickly. This is ...

While doing my first strimmer/weedwacker conversion I've been pondering
on simple ways to make things lighter and more versatile:
The flywheel on the new, unknown make engine I'm converting seems
rather lumpy, even after skimming on the lathe. This is because it

Here's a video I shot today of my buddy Mark giving his Weston Magnum "the

Anybody have hints or instructions on how to wind your own?
Read something about a 100-1 coil ratio but what thickness wire is the
minimum acceptable? I want them as light as possible.

I will build a robotic application in which I'm planning to use RC
servo motors. The robot will be wontrolled by two RC transmitter and it
need to work in a wet environment. I can seal, (make waterproof)  the
receiver electronics, power units etc. But I don't know how to make RC

My new and not quite run in yet ST61 ring engine is being an absolute
pig-the first couple of tankfulls ran ok, but next time I came to run
it it wouldn't fire. Plug after plug was blowing, the compression is so
low that my 2 year old son can turn it over, there is a nastly 'click'
