It looked like it should have been high enough to glide in for a dead-stick landing. But that thing dropped right out of the sky. It looked tail heavy on take-off, and it looked tail heavy as it made its first turn. That's probably why it wouldn't glide right. Watch it right before it disappears in the corn, the body is level and it's falling belly first towards the ground.

What did that have to do with the title? Did he hit the ignition switch while flying? If so that's pilot error not a reason not to have a kill switch. I won't fly a gas plane without a remote ignition switch.

I think it was tail heavy from the way it wallowed in the turn and the lack of any glide.

Very nice....so...the RDS pocket in the aileron is a hollow box with the wire in a "L" bend...

A very interesting mechanism which I intend to include in my present build of a Mark IX Spitfire. One caveat though, as others have mentioned, is the softness of the wood box into which the rod turns; rapid wear with potential catastrophic failure will occur. The box could be lined with aluminium (still soft though) or better, built from 2mm carbon fiber sheeting and fitted very closely to the shaft with a bit of lubricant. Voilà, durability and efficiency added for a modest investment. Thank you.

You should have inset or inserted a 1/16 ply plate onto which that control horn sat. Enjoy picking up the pieces.

Lovely to see - I've been wondering why the designs for a lot of 3D printable models don't include internal mechanisims. Leaving it all out in the airflow seems so, energy wasteful.

Hi Bob can I ask what glue do you use to build your plans please? I've just bought a part built flair Cub that I'm hoping to complete and learn to fly.

I like your aluminum servo mounting bracket, amazes me that so many pilots depend on a glue joint and a small wood block of the worst wood quality to mount their aileron flaps. SMH

Hi Bob, are there wear strips inside the actuator enclosure on the elevator?

Hi David, the wood is covered with Proskin to protect against wear and the piano wire is rounded off to reduce wear

Where do you find brass collars? What is the brand? I have never seen any and don't find any with google. Having collars that can be soldered open-up a lot of possibilities. Thanks!
@richardwood2929 Жыл бұрын
Not sure what brand but are widely available at all Model shops in the uk. Most are brass and have been plated so you can file off the plating on the edge to solder if it makes it easier

I am just getting into the RC airplane hobby and found your channel and had to subscribe. I bought the Ziroli plans for his giant scale p-51D and after looking at it I decided to attempt to just use the plans as a guide and make my airplane out of all aluminum. I'm in the process of making the forms for the ribs and have completed the main spar. Even if it doesn't work I'm having fun trying.

Depending how you define "Just getting into RC", you might want to consider cutting your teeth with a simple, cheaper trainer that will not require you to spend a huge effort in building. It may sound rude, but first few planes tend not to survive very long. And warbirds are not the best to learn, especially those with retracts that are always fragile (look at all the landing gear failure on You Tube, models made and flown and landed by highly skilled and experienced modelers and yet the gear collapse). Also, flying a plane that took hundreds of hours to build is an added stress that beginners can do without. It is best to learn with a plane that you don't stress over too much and save the wonderful P-51 and all the work that went in it for later. Maybe it is something you could discuss with your flight instructor or an old hand at your club. I flight mostly scratch build airplanes, and crashes hurt far more than when you can just order another one and slap it together in a few hours!

If you glue a piece of plastic on the inside of the slot, top and bottom, you don't dent to wood and reduce slop over time. You can retrofit this later. Great to see these old inventions back and people using them again to hide control horns!
@thecatofnineswords 2 жыл бұрын
There looks to be a fair amount of slop, given how much you were able to move the aileron manually. Have you found ways to reduce that?
@stevennagley3407 Жыл бұрын
That wasn’t slop you weren’t actually seeing the servo actually rotate at where the piano wire joins to the control at the servo control arm
