- A chat about rubber motors and how they fit into small rubber-powered models. This is just an insight into a pretty big subject. How I make rubber motors video: • Making and fitting a R... . You can show your support for my Channel JOIN HERE / cliffharveyrcplanes for EARLY ACCESS to NEW videos
I like being able to adjust the thrust angle. That is a great way to do this. You're going to have me flying free flight one day Cliff! Very interesting how you do this. It all makes changing the band easy. Really looking forward to your trim flights!
That would be fun to watch Adam, trim flights coming soon, cheers.
I love hanging out with Smart people!! ; )
So do I but I don't know any lol
Thank you for passing on your knowledge to this community!
You're welcome, just passing on knowledge I've learnt from TH-cam as well and I guess from a little bit of experience 👍
Oh man This was great instruction, I have several Guillows kits I plan to start building next year when I finally retire from the oil an gas industry.
Thanks Rafael, it's a great pastime 👍
I hadn't realised rubber power was so technical, well explained Cliff 😀👍
Keep things simple is also a good idea, (that Ajax is calling me as well) 👍
Great explanation Cliff 👍🏻
Thanks Chris, thought I would commit to video for when I forget how to do it 👍🙂
Very nice video migic :) just remember to call your flight official. mmmm did the dowels come in the kit hahaha. Thank you for shairing your time and video. This is what it is really about, having some fun.
Thanks Doyle, I think a toothpick may have fallen in lol, fun times to come, cheers.
Cliff nice demo even this Stooge can understand, thank you Jeff in LA USA
Thanks Jeff 🙂
Fun vid, Cliff
Thanks David 🙂
And here I thought that thrust angling required lots of extra cutting and re-gluing!
Hi C, it's useful being able to make adjustments as you try for the perfect flight 🙂👍
Nice work again. Please tell me what Matt lacquer spray do you use?
Anxiously waiting for the flight video.
Cheers
Hi Yasser, I buy it from Ebay in the UK, it's called 'Autotek Matt Lacquer', cheers
Very nice explanation. I need to focus on the braiding part. It gets all confusing with loops and lengths and all that. Thx for sharing!
Hi Andrew, thanks, it's all good fun.
Nice explanation, thanks so much
Thanks Indy 🙂
@@CliffHarveyRCPlanes I haven’t build a balsa plane for 40 years, so this is good info and I appreciate your work you put in to the hobby and the channel.. Thanks again! Keep’em Flying!!!
When I was young I had a model with a small gearbox. As I recall it allowed two motors to turn the one prop. Are such gearboxes available these days?
Hi Colin, not to my knowledge, reading on RC Groups it's more efficient to have a decent prop and motor these days, here's an interesting thread, cheers www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?1550174-Need-gearbox-for-rubber-power
genius!
Only my version of stuff I've seen online, cheers
Any of your video regarding rubber band looping, rubber motor creating and wind technics
Please send me link
Hi Ransantha, sorry for slow reply, time zone and been flying all day, here's a couple of videos you may find useful, cheers: th-cam.com/video/38zEjp1p29U/w-d-xo.html, th-cam.com/video/naCCYc28y_k/w-d-xo.html
Many thanks 👍
i built a Dumas De Havilland beaver, the nose plastic nose turned inside out as soon as i started winding the rubber. i should have filled the nose with balsa like you did here. thank you for sharing.
Hi OU, yes, the noseblocks aren't very thick plastic are they, this little tip really makes a big difference, thanks for commenting, cheers.
