I think all the older pictures were lost when the forum was updated a couple of months ago.

John,
I think Robbie is using 4 servos per aileron, ie 2 pairs of 2, which would give sufficient torque using your figures,

Hi Chris, had a similar problem with a DLE 55 turned out to be the plug, try a new one and see if it works.

Barrie

Hi Alex, I have found the manual which is just a double sided glossy A4 sheet with set up instructions on one side and a full exploded view on the other. It does show the multi bolt prop fixing. I changed mine years ago to a single bolt fixing without any problems. If you let me know your email addr...

Hi Alex,
Is the Tartan Twin manual you want for the petrol or glow version, I have a glow one somewhere in the loft.

Cheers,
Barrie

Hi Stu,
Thanks for quick reply, will make a similar one for mine, do you use a release at the tug end in case things go pear shaped?

Barrie

Hi All,
What type of release are you all using, bought ones or home made, just picked up a bargain glider from Wings and Wheels and hope to try towing this week.

Barrie

Hi Chris,
Have you tried Falcon Aviation, they do a single unit for about £25 and have a twin in the pipeline, or is it possible to use 2 singles?

Barrie

Had the first test flight yesterday evening and it was very sensitive on elevator, should I move the c.g. forward a little or is this normal on warbirds, any help appreciated.

Barrie

A few more hours work.

Two more months work and nearly ready for final paint job.

John, it dosen't have to be stainless pipe, in the past I have hand rolled thin steel sheet into a tube then silver soldered the seam, works just as well but takes a little mre time.

Barrie

John,
There was an article in a recent Model World showing how to make a silencer for a petrol engine,

Gerard, the self adhesive film is also stocked by Wilko's last time I looked.

Barrie

Thanks for the info Jason, looking again at the cockpit kit I think I need a pilot with legs.

Barrie

I am part way through the build of a Mustang and am wondering where to get a suitable 5 inch spinner and half body pilot, any help appreciated.

Yes Dave, Dave P. is well and playing a bit of golf and flying when the weather allows, I see or speak to him most weeks, he is quite a mine of information.

I use self adhesive book covering from Rymans (Partners) it is easy to fix to a plan and gives permanent protection against all types of glue. Dave Phillipson, and old mate of Dave J. passed this tip on to me.
