flaps

A longer sport wing with flaps. Gives a very gentle flight and great glide while keeping the ailerons. Built for a 3 to 5 degree dihedral and should have a reinforcing spar where the wings join.

A rather sturdy master series build with a 46" wingspan that has a nice glide path and flies quite prototypical on a 3S battery with a 2216 1120kV motor (I'd assume a Power Pack C would be perfect). I've attached a PDF build notes document to get you started until I have a chance to do a...

Hi, I am new to this hobby but not so new that I have absolutely no idea how things work. I take a lot of time and effort into learning something before I go and do it. But for some reason I am having trouble getting the gear and flaps to work on my E flight mustang. I've gone through the set up...

Hi, guys! For some time now I have been watching various threads of STOL aircraft building. I love the way the FT Simple Storch and FT Bushwacker fly, but I like the way real STOL planes looks. I'm a lover of scale model airplanes, even I haven't built one yet. Then, after my biloute trainer...

Age old question.. but after searching many forums and vids... I want to take a census on what others think that are familiar with the STOL planes. I want to get the most out of the STOL function for my FT Bushwacker plane. Currently I run Full (ailerons / flapperons ) for my plane. I'm...

I recently bought a Durafly Spitfire Mk24 V2 from HobbyKing, and assembly was going fine until I had trouble with the flap servos. They were pretty close to being centered, but one flap was clearly not matching the other. The servo arms have an S on one end, and an adjustable eyelet at the...

Hi guis! In my main projekt (Dc3) i runned out of glue so i decided to built something else over the weekend. I like the shape of the corsair and i ever wanted to have a warbird :D. Anyway i had the problem, that you can´t get a 4 channel reciver from Multiplex and at the FT Corsair the ailerons...

https://www.horizonhobby.com/product/... http://www.greathobbies.com/productin... Honestly it followed me home. Just one more plane. I promise. Hi my name is André and I have an addiction. So, let me introduce the newest plane to the fleet. The Commander, the moment this plane was released it...

Last night I was slumming over at MotionRC’s sales forum "Hobby Squawk” and ran across some discussions on upping the power in the Freewing Me 262. I have to admit I was amused that it has taken this long for Freewing to update this fine model. And puzzled that they chose to...

Hi all, I'm just getting back into flying after a 10 year break. Just bought a Simple Storch and trying to figure out my 9xr after only having flown analog 35 Mhz before. I started off flying SPAD ( simple plastic airplane design) and scratch built all my planes. I have a lot of questions and...

Hi guys - I asked this once and I am thankful for the answers but I still need more help. I built an FT Storch, I have installed the servos and have everything ready. The rudder and rear ailerons (I hope I use the correct terms) are working but I have no idea what to do with the wings. I cut...

Got this wonderful Bixler 2 thanks to a silly crash photo I submitted to HobbyKing, and the amazing folks out there were kind enough to virtually donate this airplane. I only paid 31 bucks including shipping, and while it was backordered, got here in less than 4 weeks. Imagine over that waiting...

I created an article and would like some feedback before it is published. Hello, this is my first article and I wanted to do it on something I recently completed (5 minutes ago) and also to contribute to the great volume of articles on this great site. Anyway my landings with the FT Flyer have...

Hey all, I've got a super cub and I love it. A buddy bought a Flyzone Beaver, and it has scared the hell out of me to fly... just too powerful. I landed it successfully on the lake, but it's just too much plane for me. Instead, I opted to upgrade my Super Cub to learn 4 and 5 channel flight...

So,I am hoping I am in the right place....Mad (Scratch) Builders has a nice ring too it :),anyway,I thought I would post a few pics and hopefully a vid of my latest mods. Let me know what you think,I'm still a ways off from testing this mod in flight,still need to build the fus for this bird and...

The HK T6a is a fantastic radio at an unbeatable price. I highly recommend it for beginners to the hobby. It served me well for 2 years and I still have it and use it to fly with my friends. Here's the way I programmed flaperons on a HobbyZone Super Cub using my T6a: Read the instructions...
