  1. I'm.jumping the gun here. But what stops it flapping around. Also obviously I just rivet up the blank holes Lyndon
  2. Thank you. When I get to the bottom skin is the same applied. Thanks Lyndon
  3. I take it these two angulars are not not fitted with the long range tanks ??? Lyndon
  4. All done. Now to do the top filler holes
  5. Well will have to drill the hole out as one will be inverted with the lip inwards. Won't be an issue. Ta
  6. Thoughts. I see some people rivnut these panels on. Seems like a lot of riv nuts. Lyndon
  7. About to cut. Now before I do. What are these holes used for. I have three the same out of the four. I'm thinking it should be two and two. If they are just a vent I'm sure it doesn't matter. Lyndon
  8. Great just priming all the skins and hopefully on the weekend get cutting and riveting. Lyndon
  9. The 10 mm hole that has to be moved is the existing one I take it. Lyndon
  10. Thanks will do that
  11. Thanks for. I feel a lot better about cutting it now. It's something you don't want to get wrong. Lyndon
  12. Wings and long range tanks. I have bought the long range tanks. About to skin the wings. Any tips. I'm thinking skin the top as per manual. Dummy fit the tanks and cut the filler hole. Then rivet up the top skin. Flip it over and fit the bottom skin. With the tank in place I can then cut it accurately. Basically dummy fit up. Common sense then cut. Any tips would be great. Nothing in the manual re the long range tanks. Thanks Lyndon
  13. Does anyone know the torque settings for tha case bolts. Or where I can them. Seems to be nothing on the net where I'm looking. Lyndon
  14. 1972 all over again.
  15. Camshaft. After many sleepless nights I'm getting the cam reground along with the lifters. At 150 bucks it cheap and it's done properly. It's very little work to get it out with none or very little cost in parts. As you see it's pretty good. It looks worse than it is as you can only just feel spalling. Strangely it's only on the rear lobes there is wear. Lyndon
  16. Thanks Lyndon
  17. I have three of these. I have three wheels. Am I missing something ??? They are steel and look to same as my fuselage cage. Lyndon
  18. Fantastic. At least I'm not alone. Or doing anything wrong. They are just shit from. That I can deal with. As long as it's not me. Thanks Lyndon
  19. The brakes are absolute junk. Nothing fits. The spacers don't. It also looks like to remove the wheel you remove the rotor first. That with unsealed bearings. What an absolute mish mash
  20. I've got nothing about discs in my manual. From what I see you remove the caliper or the rotor to facilitate the wheel removal ???. Pretty sure I have it correct. Lyndon
  21. Does someone have a link to the manual for my disc brakes. My manual has drum brakes and the kit has discs. Thanks Lyndon
  22. Nope that's me and my paint gun. Lot of prep but all done in Saturn two pack. Basically nothing on the plane will not at least have a lick of two pack primer. Lyndon
  23. Surprisingly I went through the manual twenty times and could not find where the drilling instructions are. Some verniers and with all three measured they are all the same. I fitted up a tundra with the ride on mower tube. All interchangeable and very happy with how they all fitted up. Lyndon
  24. I have drilled the rims. Easy done and my reasoning is. My tundra tyres came with expensive aircraft tubes that have offset valves. So that leaves me with three of the supplied tubes. So if all are the same they will all take the Two spare tubes that I now have. I'm sure the front condor with the cheap tube will be fine as the tyre is very robust. As my primary issue will puncture resistance. Lyndon
  25. Yep I agree. Will sort tomorrow and order them
