Re: [RCSE] Gluing Servos v.s. Servo Frames
Frames? I don't use them... they're heavy, they add weight. I can't remember the last time I had to change out a servo. 2 cents D __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: [RCSE] Gluing Servos v.s. Servo Frames
Frames seem to be the majority vote. I think I will go with them on my next glider (I glued the servos in my Extreme last spring when I switched to molded gliders and decided then that there had to be a better way). Thanks for all the advice. Corey On 2/28/06, Tom Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Use the frames that Craig Greening offers. Perfect servo fit and easy > install.

[RCSE] FS: 2 meter NOVA
Molded 2 meter. MH32 airfoil. I've got maybe 8 launches on it, in like-new condition. I'll sell it with or without servos. Airframe alone $200. Wing has 4 new to this plane JR 368's, stab has a Volz minimax, rudder a Hitec 81mg. $400 with servos. Here all you'll need to do is drop in a Rx and battery pack and launch. I'm long on 2 meter planes and need some cash. Cheers, Bill --- It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life.B. Baggins Bill Johns Colton, WA RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

[RCSE] Grand Esteem - Mike Popescu??
I know a lot of west coast flyer used to fly this plane in the late 90 when i bought it. Still have Team Mako pictures in an old RCSD. I have an Esteem model 3194. It is the 120 inch wing. I bought it for electric and it was sent with a full flying composite stab. No problem there BUT I also got a second body for thermal, it is a T tail. No details on size and airfoil. Can anyone make me a composite T tail or send me the specs, or rip it off an old basement model? Any cost involved i am willing to pay. thanks Since the company closed I have been trying to track down Mike, someone said he is now in florida. Any leads?

[RCSE] Re: Gluing Servos v.s. Servo Frames
Frames Though I have been using tape and epoxy with micro baloons a lot. Sometimes there is no space for the frames. A good tip is to wrap some kevlar thread around the frame before you glue it in. Then you can cut the kevlar and use the frame one more time. If you dont use the kevlar you will either need the epoxy to go around the edge of the frame or rub up the plastic of the frame a bit so the epoxy glues well. I have tested goop a bit on some servos and untill now it has hold up. Anyhow the most slop in models is that the skin is too soft. First of all put a layer of carbon or glassfiber in there (preferably carbon offcourse). Some producers have done this for you. What really helps is to join the upper and lower skin with some small pieces of balsa. Now build that model and get in the air Hilsen (Regards) Jojo NEW: www.jojoen.no Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2006 11:02:42 -0500 From: "Corey Groves" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: soaring@airage.com Subject: Gluing Servos v.s.

Re: [RCSE] Gluing Servos v.s. Servo Frames
You have to be right on when using the direct glue method. Yes you do!! I've just finished a CR Climmax HLG. However, when I began I forgot to take off my "foamie combat wing" hat and began by just trying to "slam" it together. I glued the first servo very securely without thinking hard enough. I chose poorly and the plane has payed the price. Currently I'm a big advocate of the frames. Bill Swingle Janesville, CA RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Gluing Servos v.s. Servo Frames
I use volz servo frames when possible. No slop. I used goop to glue the frame in when there's no foam to eat. When I use just the servo, I run tape around it and glue it in. Definitely the servo frame is easier to use, especially when adjusting servo arms. You have to be right on when using the direct glue method.
