I turned on the transmitter, and I turned on the onboard reciever, and I turned on the onboard ignition system...the only thing I didn't turn on was the opto-kill (safety) switch which is linked to...

RE: Larger Revolver

Just don't forget that you have a throttle kill switch, if you set one up! I spent about 20 minutes the other day trying to start my engine, only to finally realize the throttle kill switch was off!...

RE: Larger Revolver

I agree that many times people are encouraged to buy "overkill" servos. I found the following servos which seem to be very attractive in terms of power vs. price. They are analog servos, but I'm not...

RE: Larger Revolver

I'm a thumb flyer as well. Good questions. Don't know the answers. I also get to the point where my thumbs go numb!
A quick shake of each one helps for a bit. I wonder if this is a symptom of flying...

RE: Larger Revolver

So what in general are the torque requirements for 30cc vs. 50cc planes when 3D is the desired flying style?
You are right in that the cost of the airframe is such a small part of the overall cost...

Amen to that! I found a video of 10 jet crashes on YouTube once and sent it to some fellow flyers...my caption was "10 reasons why I won't fly jets".

I'm building my first 30cc gas engine airframe (GoldWing Su-26), so I'm anticipating huge shakes when I take that beautiful plane out for it's maiden!

RE: Larger Revolver

Gary,
I'm building an Su-26m 30cc from GoldWing. I'd be interested to hear about your build of the Pilot Extra 260 50cc.
Here is my build thread: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_10374977/tm.htm...

RE: Larger Revolver

microdon2,
GoldWing has some really affordable 50cc kits and there are quite a few good dealers out there selling this brand and the DLE-55.
I think a 50cc Revolver would be awesome, but until...

RE: Larger Revolver

Gary, I have a Magnum .91 on a Twist 60 and I've never had to worry about or use the choke...you can safely just ignore it.
You shouldn't need to choke it to start it.
I would love to put my Magnum...

RE: Larger Revolver

I don't have the model, but I checked the manual after downloading it from Tower Hobbies.
The manual does not state anything regarding right thrust adjustments.

RE: Larger Revolver

Good to know....there are multiple options for getting an inexpensive gas engine.

Now all we need is an 80inch or 84inc version of the Revolver so we can fit the DLE-30 into it!

The 70inch...

Yes, I have to agree...with the price of glow fuel being $16-$20/gallon and the cost of a gas engine being comparable to that of a similar sized four stroke glow engine, the move to gas is imminent...

Looks like your "assistant" is just as eager about the plan as you must be!
Hope you enjoy the assembly and the flying as so many others on this thread have shared!

RE: Larger Revolver

Tower has this spec for engine on the Revolver 70:

Engine .61-.75 (10-12.5 cc) two stroke OR .81-.91 (13.5-15 cc) four stroke

so your O.S. 61FX is definitely on the low end of the range.

RE: Larger Revolver

Ok - I can see the Saito 1.10...that's at least within reason...but the Saito 1.80?
That's beyond reason!

I hope you will provide us with pictures.
