Not per say.

Thankyou. 

That is all.

I also got her a flight in a hot air balloon for a previous birthday, it doesn't mean she wanted to become a hot air balloon pilot...

Managed to maybe get in contact with them on FB.  This century is useless...

Anyone here in this club? Using their contact form doesn't seem to work and the mobile number doesn't seem to work either. I'm trying to get a gift card for my partner. This is the 21 st century for crying out loud!

Sorry for not reading the whole thread through in case someone already mentioned it. Single bladed props have been used for decades in model aircraft. Particularly control line speed models, which are high powered, revving at say 30,000 rpm. And also some rubber powered free flight models, where the revs are quite low. So at least at small scale, quite versatile.

Check out this short clip, the sound of that engine when it comes on song is unreal!

No worries, got what I needed from Clear Prop 🙂

Is there a lot of centripetal force in an earth lead?

I don't even ring my mum if I can avoid it 🤣

Geez woulda been nice if the dealer outlined all that...

When  did it change?

I'm slowly getting to the pointy end of my kit build. What are the rules about completion? Is it the case it has to be inspected? For some reason I imagined you were under your own reconnaissance

If you  mean can you daisy chain them, I don't see why not. But make sure the total current draw of all the loads doesn't exceed what the ground return wire can handle.

I don't understand why some of you guys don't support our own pilot supplies shop Clear Prop, it's in the menu...it is also what helps to pay the costs of providing this site for you

I will get it from you then! I've glanced at the shop in the past but got the impression it was more for accessories like headsets etc

All I know is I was using .82mm, which was recommended by the kit manual. I had a roll of it, but I've gone and lost the stupid thing!

Ah, it's also called lockwire. Now I can see it on eBay. Is Mallin brand ok?

Particularly in SE Queensland but I guess anywhere in Australia.

Are they still around? Had a couple of emails bounce

Holy crap! Amazing speed but as easy to watch as those high speed slot cars!

I forgot to say it's about as interesting to watch  as high speed slot cars 😄

Whats the speed of sound at their altitude. Would be cool to see what happens if it goes sonic 😂

Would love to visit to see one up close. Would like to sit in one with my partner to see how roomy it is. I'm 6'2" and she's 6'

Love it! This hobby is going to survive into the future with guys like this involved. Incidentally, I have the same altimeter 🙂

Because I'm flying an ultralight (which is for fun) I prefer simple steam gauges. Yes there is more wiring, and the modern LCD screen thingies look very handy and easily interpreted, but I want simplicity first and foremost. 

The  exception being a navigation device I suppose but I haven't actually done my navs yet so I still enjoy just pootling around the local area 😄
