Переглядів 34День тому
A stock fairing was lost recently. I made the replacement fairing out of balsa wood. It is red paint marker painted. I super glued a white paper strip for a white stripe. There is coating of epoxy on one side and super glue on the other side of the fairing. The fairing is held onto the landing gear by epoxy with a super glue overlap.

    I still wouldn't fly it, the fact that it didn't move the first time says there is something wrong and and it could happen again in worse case when you are flying. Had similar stuff happen with my eflite fw 190. Left aileron servo only went one direcrtion and refused to properly go to the other direction. Well after that when I was trying to figure out what is wrong with it I heard a pop sound and the servo was gone, I would be screwed if it happened during flight. You have a video as a proof so I would either contact the seller again or took the servo apart and measured every electrical component of it to make sure it really wasn't a servo maybe just a bad contact somewhere. Hope you solve this one out and I hope she will bring a smile to your face when you take her to the sky :)

      About charging time on that lipo battery I easily start charging from about 30-33% battery and to get to a full charge as in like 95-100% it has taken me about 40 to 50 minutes before. I have heard from lipo battery experts that each 3.7v lipo battery cell can last up to 300 cycles of cycling between full charge and low charge/33% battery.

    You are going to love this ship. I am NOT a very good pilot, even after over 20 years in the sport, and I'm flying a PITTS SPECIAL. You may find it does not have a forgiving glide slope, and you must bring it in under power, two wings create turbulence that don't provide enough airflow over the tail to steer, so keep the prop going as long as you can on landing. It will easily hand launch, takes off automatically from a runway, and if landing on a runway it must be very smooth or it will nose over, so I am aiming for the grass except on totally windless days. I drove mine into the ground nose first under power, and it took only ten minutes to repair. It's a tough little plane. Have Fun!

      @@GottaKnowJoeHobbies Thank you for offering to help. When I got engine at first there was no compression due to stuck valve and I managed to get compression back from a heat gun. Then my dad and I tried to run it but would never fire up without heavy priming and would only fire up for a few seconds from heavy priming and that was it for a fire up of the engine. I also replaced included glow plug to one of my spare good conditioned OS type f. That did not help. Later on when I went through a few cycles of loosening and tightening a glow plug the threads on the cylinder head for glow plug started stripping off to the point I cannot screw in a glow plug. When I tried removing certain parts of the engine that came with Allen bolts, some of the Allen bolts were too hard to remove even as a non-stripped condition. Before the stripping occured I do believe I applied a heat gun on top of those heads for a few minutes and did not help. I believe that later on I then went back to trying to unscrew with proper Allen wrenches and those bolts started getting stripped. Lastly I tried applying a power drill to those stripped bolts and drastically changed the external looks. Those stripped bolts are still stuck for now. In the big picture, helping to fix this 4 stroke engine is not just going to seem hard but may easily feel like an unrealistic goal to achieve. You do not have to go through any trouble to fix the engine. And Ofcourse thank you for the offer and good luck in your business. Also happy to do business with you again in the future.
