RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

That is about the coolest thing I've seen. Very smart and simple. Thanks for the killer idea. I've always kept a little compressed air for cleaning your desk (from Staples) and use it to...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

So I won't say that I'm correct or not, but I would like the definitive answer. In a Bobcat, when I angle the tail cone down to counteract the tendency to lift under throttle, regardless of Bernoulli...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

With all due respect, that us simply not correct. When you have a wing that is now directing which direction you travel, each increment you move forward, the turbine is lifting the rear of the jet....

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

Why can't you just accept that this time you're wrong. Put your turbine on the front of your jet with the tailcone pointed down and you've got up thrust. Put that same turbine on the back in the same...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

Some JetJoe guys love their engines. It's kinda like a VW Beetle. You get to work on it yourself. The Kingtech is a plug-n-play kinda deal. Much better IMHO.

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

Sorry Noray. I got my names mixed up. I corrected the post above to reflect your name. Lots of purchases made in the past couple weeks for the Falcon. Trying to keep it all straight has been...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

I've got my canopy figured out finally. I purchased one of Noray's from the "other" site. It's incredibly strong. I had to brace the middle as it was tended to squeeze together too much. Now I...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

If you use pins or dowels in the front (I'm using two hooks of ply in the front and one canopy hatch in the rear) you should be fine. If you're still concerned with the gap you can heat up the...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

That is a really cool idea. I think I'll add that to my build. Thanks for the explanation.

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

You said you added keys to locate the booms to the wings? What do you mean? Got any pics? BTW, sounds like you made great improvements to it. Can't wait to hear about the maiden. Sure it will go...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

Yeah, I agree if you can get trailing link gear do it. It will take SO much stress off the mounting blocks.

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

You're right about shortening the legs. It will look very strange in its current setup without a prop swinging in the back. I'm not sure how much to shorten though.

As for the retracts, ProEDF...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

Also, you can use the spots where the elev servos would go and put the rudder servos there so they're less visible. Then place blocks in the horizontal stab center section to beef it up and put the...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

I couldn't agree more with jetflyr. I selected important sections and printed it out. It's been a better guide than the instructions. (no lie there). It's a quick build.

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

I hear ya. It's a LOT of reading. You'll probably have the thing built before you finish.

Try reading around post 3215 (page 129) for some ideas of where to make corrections to the frame, also...

RE: Bob Cat Copy Falcon 120 Jet

Just got my orange/black Falcon and have to say it was packaged extremely well. I haven't gone through everything with a fine tooth comb yet, but did notice that the tube inside the wing appears to...
