Rob Crewe suggested, a while ago now, how to get a stuck prop off.

http://www.modelflying.co.uk/members/images/1860/Gallery/Prop_Removal.jpg

 I just drilled out a clearance hole in a bit of hex bar. Loosened the prop nut just a little. Cable-tied the prop to the bar. Then slowly undid the nut against the bar. As the nut pushed the bar away, it brought the prop with it. Surprisingly easy in the end.

Hi all, Just come across this excellent thread and am now totally inspired to finish my Moth. Started the build almost 3 years ago! I had a build thread at http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=472417 .

Building mine as a Genet Moth - not many built as the radial engine wasn't up to much I think! Anyway, the RAF used it for a while in a display team. Going for a mild amount of detail ie. dummy radial engine, closed loops, rib stitching & tapes. Sig Koverall & spray finish in mind -when I get there!

Hi Simon.

Great of you to join th ethread.

Wonder if I'll get my Moth finished before you.    If it takes me a really long tike to finish I'm hoping that I'll be good enough at flying by then to be able to fly it.

By the way, I can't see any of the photo's in your thread. But they work OK if I click on them.

Any sysadmins around that can help ?

Nice one Simon,

It's nice to know that people realise the hidden value of a kit, and enjoy the pleasure of building a working aircraft that they can personalise and take pride in.

ARTF really do have a good firm place coupled with much usefulness in the market, they introduce many new ones to the hobby (some of whom progress on to building).

Has anyone yet worked out what the diagonally placed large green letters spell out in reverse, on our homepage pic???
