Okay I had to make it a few times. I have explaned how I did it. Watch all the videos because I do change things as I go along. Do not worry if your piston is a little loose it will still work. Hope this helps. Please let me know if all goes well. good luck

I left it for an hour or so and now I can view it and comment. Not sure what the problem was first thing, but KZbin was teasing me. Showed the video in my subscription feed, but said it was private when I clicked on it. All OK now. That looks great, love the mixture of metals giving it an eye-catching colour scheme 👍😊

I had to take the outer covering off the wicks in order to get them through the tiny holes on the lamp caps. Any suggestions?

Great fun to watch, but you definitely need to fix the plastic onto the tail, that is important to the aerodynamics and will be part of the reason it is circling so tightly. You adjust the climb and the turn by twisting the tail. While one side is disconnected like that, the tail cannot function properly. 👍👍👍👍😊😊

Wonderful innovation. I expect the Resolva Weedkiller container had a maximum pressure rating written on it to give you a guide as to how much pressure you can put in it. Obviously putting the valve in it will have weakened it a little, but it should give you a general guide.

I don’t need too much pressure but the pump I’m using is not powerful to input air more then I’m talking out. But it will do for now until I find something better. 👍
