RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Yes all commercial aircraft have TCAS, and there's little doubt that the New exec jet had it too. What is odd about what Marcus has reported is that so much weight has been put on ATC's inability to...

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

That should give you a little more power to play with Marcus.

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Nice job Marcus!:D

Think I'll get the Grob out tomorow for a maiden. Just have to spend some time flying some extreme stuff on the sim tonite. Not that the Grob is extreme by a long shot but...

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Wow, Marcus, I'm sorry to hear the news.
I haven't been in town for a while and just read about it.

Unfortunately that's part of the game eh?
I'm sure you'll have her back together soon.

Hope that works for you Marcus.
Just as with placing the servos in front of the firewall I'm a little worried about the lack of separation of ignition noise and your radio equipment. I wouldnt...

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Hi Marcus,

IMO puting the servos that close to the ignition would be a risky choice after so much work on your bird. You should be able to accomplish the same results with bellcranks, perhaps...

Don't hammer that spinner Marcus![:o]
It's a beauty. Save it for another model. Unless your a magician with a pneumatic hammer, I just can't see how you won't ruin it.

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Not much power in those Bob.
I have a couple but they don't have a very good power to weight ratio. I have one on a Hangar 9 giant ultra stick and that works ok with the huge wing area.

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Don't worry, your just getting started. There will be many planes, engines and lots of costs you won't be able to justify in you RC future should you get hooked like the rest of us.

Your right about the cost thing. I now have a large inventory of electric motors, batteries, speed controls etc. For me it's quite affordable to get a new electric up and running. It's...

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

After watching the vid again it seems that the German kit has zero dihedral unless it's a rigging choice that Sam made with his lift struts. No lack of power...if I recall he has a ZDZ 160 in it....
