Holy COW BF - those RC planes are huge! I don't guess they have Cox PeeWee .049's under the cowling??? Lycoming 's maybe? How many channels do they run? Is that a De Havilland? Do your kids ride in them?

Schrade · 11-05-2013

OK there BF; time to 'fess up here - you're one of the PP's that bought the remnants of Cox?

Any Y/T vids of your birds in the air?

Boy the Cox .049. That brings back memories. Had a P-38 Warhawk with one of those. No RC then. Just pull string.

Schrade; Not sure which plane your referring to, but Yes there are a couple of De Havillands in there, a Super Chipmunk with a 62 inch wingspan and a Beaver with a 76 inch wing. Both have .9 cubic inch glow fuel engines and have 6 channel radios.

The Chipmunk has lot's of time on it and has not been an easy life for it.

Don't remember what I did, probably something stupid, probably about 10 years ago now. But I rebuilt it and it's still flying today;

I had the P40 warhawk all in green and on the string. Remember the glow plugs and the fuel in the can lol

Actually there is one of those hanging in there too. Finished building it, just working on the covering now.

XfireZ51 · 11-05-2013

Is it P40 or P38. I always thought the Flying Tiger stuff was 38's. I loved the
teeth on the lower engine cowl. Never actually got it to takeoff, then the fuel ate away at the plastic wings until it fell apart. I was left w just the engine and I built an engine mount out of my Erector set and run the motor w battery and fuel. Imagine doing that in a 4 room railroad apartment in Brooklyn. Noisy.
