[RCSE] Hi-Start HELP

2003-09-24 Thread Fred A. Sheplavy

It has been many,many years since I used/owned a hi-start.  I now own an ARF
BOT and would like to know from some who have flown one off a hi-start what
kind you would recommend.
TIA
Fred

RE: [RCSE] Replacement BOT ARF received today-Still wrong

2003-09-24 Thread Jim Stovall



Steve,
 
I'd 
send it back! Who's to say that's not the only place the grain is incorrect and 
that it still won't fold up off the winch again? I'd say Tower has yet to solve 
the quality problem, and where else on this airframe ARE  there 
quality issues???. Get your $$ back while you can!
 
Best Regards,Jim

ARF received today-Still wrong
I received my replacement Bird-of-Time ARF from 
Tower today.  I was curious to see if Dynaflight corrected the 
spar shear web construction.
 
No surprise, the grain of the shear web is still 
running horizontal to the spar instead of running perpendicular to 
the spar.
 
Instead of sending it back, I think I will strip 
the monokote, correct the shear web problem, strengthen the spar box, put 
spoilers in the BOT and cover in a different color of monokote.
 
Anybody have any other suggestions?
