IBob Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I've said this before here...but I am astonished by the sheer number of accumulated aircraft designs. Red, Kasper...setting aside the many versions of some aircraft (ie, counting a DC3 as one, a piper cub as one, and so on) do you have any idea just how many there are???

IBob Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Yep, I'd have a go at that...provide the seat and the instrument column respectively stayed where they were........( < tenor voice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red750 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Spot on, Birdseye. That's my lot for the time being, until I run across a few more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winsor68 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I've got one...a little bit different perhaps but it is still an aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdseye Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Reminds me of a Keilcraft control line kit I had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesailor Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 me too, loved the "ladybird" KK of course, freeflight, tethered, and radio controlled, chasing golfer's down the fairway on a sunday afternoon. It flew very slow with a "Mills" .75, running as slow as I could get it, only rudder control in those days, PulseProportional came a couple of years later. spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdseye Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 "Galloping Ghost"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planedriver Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Geez!, now your stirring the memory. The very first "galloping ghost" system that I made, was using acorn valves from army surplus walkey-talky's from that era purchased from Government Surplus shops in London's seedy Soho.. Crude as they were,with rudder fluttering one way and then the other as the mark-space ratio varied to stick inputs, they did work at the time, but the young-un's of today who are familiar with digital proportional might think we are a bunch of dinosaurs. Shh! . NO FURTHER COMMENT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea. I've probably hardly scratched the surface. Here's my next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasper Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 No idea but the pilot gets a big F for flying skills - nose wheel first is unforgivable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kasper Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Elevator neutral and no flap in use? Don’t care. Nose on the ground and air under one of the mains. That doesn’t happen if you’re flying at all correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Perhaps it's doing a take off? Flap equipped planes usually use a fair bit for landing. None or a small amount for take off. There's not much weight on either main and the nosewheel strut is not fully extended. (has weight on it , see scissor link) so it's NOT the way to be. if you want to fly safe. Weight on mains is more stable, directionally.. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesailor Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Could it be a bit of "crosswind", just my thought about doing a "touch & go". spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
