Re: Spacewalker half scale 168" electric

Hi Andy.......have been following your build from the beginning....I am puzzled again by your deviation from scale......at this size I thought a tailwheel set up somewhat similar to the full size would have been preferable to what you have done here........sorry to be critical, but the larger models...

Re: 92" Miles hawk Speed 6

Re: Spacewalker half scale 168" electric

Hi Andy......yes I know what you mean by the ÿoungsters"flying all over us......the 1/4 scale SW weighs 6.8 kgs so it does not float in...best landings are to keep a bit of power on till the last couple of feet altitude. I have some more photos of the inside ...I will dig them out and post them...

Hi Andy....I have been following your build from the beginning. I have built 2 Spacewalkers...both the Sig 1/4 scale and 1/3 scale so anything Spacewalker I am interested in. Having built the scale undercarriage for the 1/4 scale version I am a bit puzzled as to why you have pre compressed the sprin...
