Rough Field wheel change for Parkzone Super Decathlon.

The wheels and spats/pants that come with the model are far too small at 40mm for grass take offs. Swapped them out for some generic 55mm ones from Giantcod.

Looks pretty good.

Having spent many months reading the BluBaby thread, I decided to cut one out. That's as far as I got in favour for a similar high winger.



Based on the highly popular full size Citabria this is built from a free plan submitted by philipa_240sx.

Have a look at his other plans.

Model has a 33" KFM2 wing, emax 2805 1600kv motor and 8x4 GWS HD prop. Hoping to maiden her soon.

Finally making time to turn some of my B+Q underfloor insulation into finished models.



RC Powers Mig29 foamie. Well worth the $9.99 for the plan.

Police flasher (0 min 27 sec)

Been having a lot of fun doing electronic circuits employing PICAXE microcontrollers.

Made a lash up of a police light bar using 2x red smt led and 2x blue leds.






Have a look at a quick video of the flasher bar. Sorry for low quality shot in video mode with digital camera. Sometimes cannot keep up with the action:-

Photo of blank pcbs for modified version of the RX-18 dual conversion receiver as featured on the DIY ELECTRONICS forum. I added a second stage inverter for the decoder, so an easier to source 10.245Mhz crystal could be used.
