  1. Look forward to seing it flying Murat! (When the rains go off-maybe next year???)
  2. Just wondered- does anyone have any thoughts on my query?
  3. Another query- In case of future maintenance requiring the removal of a wing servo, I don't want the complications to extend the aileron servo wiring through the wing. Rather, I'll keep the servo wiring within the servo bay, and use a non-removable extension cable with plug and socket built into the wing. This will join to a cable attached to the Rx. So we have three plug/socket joints- 1) at the servo, 2) at the receiver, and 3) the socket connection between wing and Rx wiring. My question- are these intermediate joints going to cause a continuity problem? Or are the socket connections pretty solid?
  4. Pretty good Leccy- I've had the same fast deliveries!
  5. Thanks guys- A bit of investigation of the hieroglyphics finally caught the blighter! I was worried that my translating back would be a one off, but, having clicked on another AliExpress notification in my emails, it's seems permanently back to good old English! (no Scots translation though!!)
  6. Help! Has anyone else found that, like me, in the last couple of weeks, when I flag up AliExpress on Firefox (my default internet connector) , everything is written in Saudi Arabic! And, not understanding Saudi, I can't change the default to English! Anyone got a fix?
  7. Thanks for that- looks like a good way to go!
  8. Thanks for thatDick! As well, has anyone recommendations/ illustrations as to how to fit standard servos in each wing? Brackets, or?
  9. I'm looking for a couple of wing servos for my 48" Aeromaster, which I'm renovating. I've come across ads for JX PDI-2105MG 21g High Torque Digital Slim Servo, which describes the operating voltage as being 6~7.4 V. Now my understanding (which may be wrong!) is that, with the BEC on the 6S LiPos, the output Rx/ servo voltage output is 4.8V. My question- is this servo suitable? If it runs at a lower voltage, it's torque output (6.8 kg.cm @ 6v- 7.9 kg.cm @ 7.4v) would obviously be lower? Will this give problems? Altrnatively, has anyone recommendations/ illustrations as to how to fit standard servos in each wing? Thanks for any answers from those who know!
  10. Same angina problem a couple of years ago Simon- I promptly had a stent fitted into a narrowed artery!
  11. Thanks Evil! i'l- I'll look it up!
  12. Thought that you might! What are your favourite substitutes?
  13. Hi Paul, Looks good! I've had a SlowPoke kit sitting in its box since just before HK pulled out of the UK- 3 years back? (too many models!!) From all reports then, it flies fine, if a little fast rather han slow! Must get going on it! In light of what I've heard on various forums from other HK users, relating to servo failures, I may pull out the servos, and replace them. Anyone reading have problems with HK servos- surely they can't all be bad? Anyway good luck with yours- let us know how it flies!

    Temu

    Just wondered if any of the forum users have used Temu. Their prices always seem vey competitive. which makes me suspicious. However, I can be persuaded to try the site, if there are favourable respomses?? Thanks for any feedback!
  15. Thank you all for your valued advice!
  16. Just wondered- Is it still possible to buy wide obechi sheet- in the region of 300mm widex 900-1200 long?
  17. Hi Dick, That's very nice. Apart froom 1500kv, what are the other motor specs?
  18. Sorry I missed the fun Leccy- hope to be out and about again in a couple of weeks time!
  19. Trevor, many thanks for your link- a lot of food for thought!
