Re: Wanted, spare parts.

Hi Paul, the original cowl is no longer suitable. I cut it into two pieces (top and bottom) and cut a lot away to fit a Saito FS60 flat twin and flew the model on that for several years, though I was never all that impressed with the engine. The model needs a good refurb now, so I'm recovering it an...

Re: Wanted, spare parts.

Hi Richard, thanks for the reply. I have considered the bits for the Sig version, but I read on another forum (I think it was an American website) that they dont fit. The Sig Cub is a true 1/5 scale, and is slightly bigger than the Goldberg Cub which is scaled at 1/5.5. I can get away with acetate s...

Re: Wanted, spare parts.

Thanks for that Alan, if I don't come up with anything else I'll get the cowl from Carbon Copy. I can salvage the glaazing at a pinch, but I would have preferred new. The windscreen is the main bug bear as its moulded over the top of the fuse. The side windows can be done using acetate sheet. All to...

Wanted, spare parts.

I know this may be a long shot, but here goes. I'm refurbishing an old Carl Goldberg Anniversary Cub (the 1.5 scale, fully built up kit) and I need a full glazing set and cowl. I've had no response from Goldberg,(to be honest their website home page reads more like a dating site for singles) and a c...

Re: Wing tubes

Hi Stuart, I don't know what make they are, but Falcon Aviation at Burnley sell wing tubes/sleeves at any length/diameter required, and he is reasonably priced. Deffo worth a call. David Jones.

Re: Control throws on Svenson Stampe

I've had the kit, the Flair sprung U/C kit and the decals for years. Everything we needed, apart from paint, was in the box. The model is covered in nylon and dope and has come out well. We hope to test fly it as soon as these lockdowns end then paint it. We have a Flair 1/4 scale Tiger Moth waiting...

Control throws on Svenson Stampe

I'm in the process of setting up the control surfaces on a Svenson 1/4 scale Stampe, can anybody tell me what the throws for the ailerons, elevator and rudder should be. I can't find any reference to the movements on the plans or in the instruction booklet.
Thanks in advance, David Jones.

Flying wires on Svenson Stampe

I'm building a Svenson 1/4 scale Stampe. Are the flying / landing wires structural or just for show? I do know that on the Precedent version they are structural, and the fittings in that kit were more substantial. I can find nothing in the Svenson instructions to indicate anything either way. When t...

Re: WANTED JR 921 Reciever

Hello James. I have a JR RD921 receiver for sale. It was one of two that I had fitted in my Ziroli Dakota, which I have since sold. The receiver and satellite are in excellent working order, (see photo) which I will guarantee. I will sell this at the same price I sold the other one recently, £50 pos...
