Glenn, April 1st is months away.

Thanks Frank, and hope you're ok Tony.

A question.
If the multiplex safety switch continues to supply battery power to the rx if the mechanical switch fails, how does it sense the difference between being switched off, and switch failure?

The whole document issued by the CAA is full of contradictions and mistakes. If they can't get this right, I don't trust them to hold my details secure.

Gigaset, Medion, TechniSat, are the only makes that affect the Spitfire (they are all German manufacturers)

I know it's old, but I love it!

You must be chuffed as punch! I think trying to work out the 3d geometry would have sent me to the funny farm.

Rob, I love flying ww1 types and use aileron differential on all of my bipes. I also mix ail/rudder, but that's because I've got a lazy rudder thumb!

Xjet sums it up very well!

Ian, I have emailed a drawing to you, I had problems trying to attach it here as I'm using a kindle at the moment.

Tony, see you tomorrow. My mistake with phone number (must be an age thing!)

Tony, I'm picking my daughter up from Stansted airport Monday evening. I'd be happy to pop in Monday afternoon and give you a hand with your transmitter. It's probably easier to show you rather than trying to write it down, and it'll only cost you a cup of tea! Cheers Steve 01698 811446 home 07802 4...

This is a quote from the reply I had from the CAA: "Model aircraft associations or clubs as operators: model aircraft associations or clubs would have the option of registering as the operator with their members acting as remote pilots. In this scenario, the association or club would need to me...

Tony, if you can wait till next week, I'll see if I can write an easy to read guide for you. It's not too difficult, and the 9c has a pre-programmed flaperon function. This will need to be activated, and a flap to elevator p-mix set. As far as I remember, ailerons should be on Channels 1 & 5. Ch...

Could the combined offices of the LMA and BMFA mount a legal challenge, citing the onerous burden and cost of running a duplicated system for no benefit, and the disregarding of the government's own (and E U) published guidance. There may also be a case that these regulations remove a freedom, and r...

Tim, I'm not sure how much room you have, but it may be an idea to look at linear servos operating as the rams.
I'm sure you'll get it sorted somehow, can't wait to see the finished article!

Michael, I've used Savox SG-0211MG in flying surfaces with good results.

I have one on each aileron on a large Albatros C.iii, and I'm going to do the same on the Pfalz D.xii I'm building at the moment.

Cheers
Steve

Thanks Tim, their forum is an Aladdin's cave of information. They even have a forum dedicated to the Pfalz d.xii
Following some of the links on their site I have got the info that's good enough for my purpose. Rib tapes on main ribs, nothing on riblets.
Cheers
Steve

Hi, the wings on my latest build have ribs, half ribs, and riblets. On these WW1 German types was stitching applied to all ribs, or just main and half ribs? I've got fairly good documentation, but no good pictures of the leading edge that resolve the fabric stitching.
Cheers
Steve

I wonder if whoever opens the time capsule in the distant future will have to register?
