    Sport Bud Nosen (!!!) 1/4 Scale Citabria Build! Woo hoo!

    Started up on this again, trying to get wing details done so that the halves can be joined and everything done/ready for cover. Then on to finishing the fuselage and tail feathers. Maybe it'll get done, maybe it'll go back onto the back burner after a bit. Maybe it'll go to another builder to...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Hi Tony, That's a pretty amazing project you're working on! Could I persuade you to also post your photos at ChampCitabriaDecathlonForums.com?? It's a website dedicated to the Champ, Citabria, and Decathlon family of airplanes. Here's a direct link to the sub-forum for RC versions of the...

    IMAC Pattern - Cadence w/ DA 35

    The Super Kaos 60 was designed to have three standard servos side by side so it's about that wide. I was going to make the 90 size but more narrow and a little taller. Probably not much wider than the engine mounts and spinner. Maybe I'll keep the fuselage the same length as the 90 but scale...

    IMAC Pattern - Cadence w/ DA 35

    Paul, Are you adjusting the size of the plane at all for the engine? Based on weight? Wing loading? More than one thing? I ask because @WMcNabb was nice enough to bestow upon me an Evolution 26cc gasser and I bought a tuned pipe for it with the plan being to scratch build a pattern airframe...

    Scale 1/4 Scale 148" Shrike Commander

    ha ha, just noticed your thread on FG, you started it there the same day you started a thread here. You said above that you moved the thread due to upload errors when the thread has been there all along. Funny, I don't have the upload errors you mentioned.

    Enya 120-4C Bearings

    the bearings that I took out had metal cages holding the ball bearings in. when I popped out the seal on one of the new bearings the cage was plastic and it popped out pretty easily too. it didn't exactly inspire confidence in the new bearings if you know what I mean. i think the fuel/oil...

    Enya 120-4C Bearings

    doesn't the fuel and oil pass through the main bearing to lubricate the front bearings?

    Scale 1/4 Scale 148" Shrike Commander

    FG is FG, it just is what it is so if you're telling people to follow you over to FG if they want to see your build......we're all here because it isn't FG. Been there, done that. Unless changes were made after I sold the site, you should be able to upload a hundred photos per post. Maybe the...

    Enya 120-4C Bearings

    Hi guys, I've got an Enya 120-4C that was on a Cub I picked up a couple of weeks ago. The bearings that were in there were rusty so I ordered new ones but the original main bearing had open bearings and the front bearing was sealed in the front. The replacement bearings that Boca sent me are...

    SOLD! Evolution 26cc gas engine and accessories

    No, it is a Sig 1/4 scale that I bought from a guy last week. The Enya 120 4 stroke in it was seized and broken but i've been fixing it. I'll honor your generosity by giving it away here when it is running again in a couple of weeks.
