Their only hope of survival is to rebuild the craft so that, phoenix-like, she may fly again and carry them to safety, but can the captain and navigator calm the passengers as tension mounts and time starts to run out? nominated for academy awards best actor Merry Xmas Giuseppe

Hi Martin I also had a os 26fs and was looking for a plane and went for the Playboy Senior 80 Got the plan from outerzone and a cnc router cut short kit from eBay for £50 and you get the wings rib tail ribs as the rest is all strip wood it is a lovely build and beautiful slow flyer running a 10x6 prop and a 4 oz tank it flies for ever easy 30 min on tick over No need to hunt for thermals you know when you got one My only worry is losing it on one as it just want come down To date is my favourite summer plane Regards Giuseppe

Thanks Nigel

Getting there

I get mine from here **LINK**

Hi everyone On my agile project I need some low profile servos and I was wondering if I can use low profile retract servo for elevator and rudder just like normal servos the like of Hitec hs 77bb speed 4.8/6v 0.18/0.14 sec @60 degree or Hitec hs 75bb speed 4.8/6v 0.45/0.34sec @180 degree Can i use them ok and Which is better 60 degree or 180 Thanks

Thanks Trevor, is all carbon tube 7mm for the Savage Bobber and 4mm for the Savage Trainer using JB Weld You can see the building blog on here by typing Savage Bobber on the search for.

Playboy Senior os 26fs probably the best all timer ever My Savage Boobber asp 160 twin now with a pilot Savage trainer with asp 30 fs

as long it will glow both glow plugs I am a very happy pilot thanks again

Thanks Dennis, like it. But will it work for both glow plugs! i mean is it man enough to do the job,mind you it will probably take 2 day to charge

Hi all and thanks again Martin thanks for the sketch but as Steve said i only want to start the engine and turn off when running thats all. Denis are you saying that just one c cell battery will do the job,if so what capacity/make battery should i get because on one cell looks simple to me So its like this Positive + and negative - off the battery x1 To the heavy duty switch(with built in charging socket and led light) coming in red connector (in my case) and out off the switch Black connector(in my case)which i will cut the wire and connect the black Wire to engine earth and the red wire i will split in to 2 and connect to each glow plug! but will one battery do the job! To connect to the glow plugs i was thinking to use a proper glow plug wire (red wire with black cup rubber pull to fit as you normally get ) but the red wire is a bit thicker than the red wire off my heavy duty switch( would this matter) or should i take extend same gauge red wire to the glow plugs and use /connect/solder to a brass tube that fit the glow plugs head. Hope this is it as i am fed up looking at my bobber naked i need to finish it so that i can go FLY...... Thanks again much appreciated

go to go now to bang my head on the wall if i am still alive tomorrow i will catch with it But thanks for all you help all you lovely people

No Martin is a New ASP 160 twin on my Savage Bobber but if you could draw me a diagram i will be stopping pulling my hair out Thanks

Paul i can see the engine running but i would prefer to see how how is wired up I need weight up front and lots of it other wise i just going to use 2 glow sticks to start the engine witch is a ASP 160 new and i think a glow driver is not required if set properly not like my old os 120 gemini mk1 witch would cut out on long tick over, so got a just engine twin glow driver and is now a beautifully behaved engine and never cuts out All i want is useful weight up front

Ok thanks again but i am stiil confused because on Paul diagram there are 2 battery c cell in +to- this is parallel i belive! wright As the doctor said (no this is not the way to do it it)but if i get 2 cheap c cell say 2000mha each and wire them up as (+ to+) witch give me 1 positive to split one for each glow plug and (-to-) give me 2 negative with can be connected to to engine and there for my 2 battery become 4000mah this sound good and it make sense i think this is called in series wright! But were do i put the heavy duty switch with built in charging socket on this circuit so that when is off i can charge the batterys and when i switch on it supplys both glow plug I could do with a diagram cose i am more confuded than before Do i do parralel or series that is the question now Or do i just 2 separate circuit get one battery for each glow ( that is 2 battery) and share the earth connected to engine basically 2 circuit Again if i do it this way where do i put the switch x1 for this 2 circuit as i dont want to use 2 switches Gosh if i had a brain i wont be bothering you lot but thanks again
