We are pretty close. Jeremy is fine tuning the prototype and when he says it meets his approval I will have the first batch cut and ready to go.

Is there any plan to ARF the Chinn Yak?

That I'd order, right now

Is there gonna be any profile fun flys in the chicago area this year?

GremlinX · 01-21-2006, 09:42 PM

WOW this thread has taken off with STYLE :-) I'll share a few of mine with ya. I bought my first profile about 5 years ago and they have since taken over my fleet.

Here is a vid of the summer MOJO

Here are a few more assorted profiles and a few foamies.

I'm crossing my fingers that your story is in 3D Flyer this month. By the way they acted I'm betting it will be. It should be out any day now.

The only fattie that I now have is a Lazy Bee. Wish that I could part ways with it, but...

**Boulder** · 01-22-2006, 07:38 PM

Well I was flying my Goldberg 330 yesterday and went to idle on my landing approach, the motor just quit. After a hard landing, couldn't make the landing area in my backyard, I checked the motor. I was getting a kind of a clunk when turning the motor past the compression stroke. I figure a bearing took a dump, so I put it away for the night.

When I got home from work today, I decided to pull the motor and replace it with an old one I had on the shelf, another 50sx that had a broken carb. I removed the carb from the original and put it on the old engine, mounting the whole thing on the plane. I fired the motor up with 2 flips of the hand, it just idled on the bench, no sweat. I took it to the backyard and tweaked the needle, running good. I took off right to a hover and then proceeded to do some slammin' around the sky. This motor sounded so smooth and quiet, I didn't want to land. The power was so much better than the original motor I know there must have been something wrong with it right from the beginning.

I'll be sending the broken motor back this week, and flying the 330 every night, in my backyard. I will try to shoot some more video, and if you watch both my videos, you will definately hear a major difference in the motors, I am a very happy camper

Here is me last year with my Kat 70. Don't have the plane, or the Saito .91 anymore. Wish I would not have sold that motor.....

Make sure you give the vid time to load, it takes a while to load.

WessCo · 01-23-2006, 08:47 PM

At least you got it down! I had a friend that had his plane shot down out of a tree!
