Normal pressure from the tank averages out at 7psi although from the factory it can vary up to 9 psi, there's no point it being any higher as the purpose is to deliver the fuel to the regulator, then onto the Carb. a little bit simplified but that's the general gist. Any decent tanks such as Kavan will take 10 psi quite easily and All I ever do is solder on little barbs to stop the tubing coming off. SMC are still trading after it was sold.

Great company and have used them many times and when One item came damaged the refund was quick and dead easy. I admit the item that came damaged a printed tin plate A4 size the packing was hilarious.

Cloud Models have the biggest selection of Obechi and are the company that produce the foam parts for Chris Foss.

Hi Jim. I still use YS on a daily basis, If you need 30% fuel I always have it in stock(I have the EPL for this fuel) however 25% is kinder on the OS plugs and the 20% fuel runs well on the YS although not quite as much torque compared to thje 30%. These days not many people use the YS in the UK, now however the in the USA market its a fairly popular engine used in regular sports models as well. I have several hyde mounts although in my 80 size and less I use a hard mount. 25% is the limit you can buy without a EPL

Very nice build.

if you have a quater scale model and you are going to invest in a gyro than I would suggest investing in a decent gyro such as Powerbox or Cortex as there's a marked difference between the lower end and top end, not snobbery as i use some cheaper ones but in the end they are inferior to the top end ones in characteristics and set up

I just said that, the same as the slow blow fuse would be the problem.

Another company xxxxxx bought in the 9303 which is an American version and not a European version and the software was American with American power outputs, the 9303 was never modified for European use , Very confident that the throttle on your radio is analogue where as the European DSX 9 is digital so straight away one of the main boards is different,

Google 9303,and the other unofficial distributor of JR at the time (not McGregor) the DSX9 is the UK model which has a different power board and has the CE mark

Be careful with the TX as its a USA version and the insurance is not valid using it in the UK, should something happen. I used one till i found out the power output is 1 watt and invalidated my insurance. And thus sold it .

You never said you opened the pack up and resoldered the pack and bypassing the dead cell, you made it sound like you only removed the balance lead.Sounds like a pain to save a few pounds. Second thoughts Ill go with my original post, Having reread the posts, as the posts suggests just removing the balance lead,

I used to have a JR 9303 as it was the same tx as the PCm9Mxii but hell of a lot cheaper (not legal in the UK as its the USA version with higher output) The good news is that inside on the main board is a 3amp glass slow blow fuse which normally blows before anything else.

I repaired someone's engine a few years ago at an airshow using a weetabix box when the carburettor gasket failed on a GP 123. Worked perfectly.

It was my son who taught me that when flying towards yourself move the stick to the lower wing as it looks more interesting, its just another take on a Derry turn.
