| SteveM | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 07-Sep-08 02:00 |  | | Views : 1631 | | Here is where the wheel really wants to sit. I guess it is time to grind off all that epoxy and find a way to tilt the brass tubing forward so that the tail wheel will want to rest properly. |
| SteveM | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 07-Sep-08 01:58 |  | | Views : 1525 | | The tail wheel was working just fine till I put on the main wheels and gave it a test roll. This is also the first time I have used a wheel with a metal hub so I was actually able to solder on metal washers to hold it in place. |
| SteveM | Guillows Series 400 - P-51 Mustang | Build | 07-Sep-08 01:55 |  | | Views : 1435 | | I was going to use small Du-Bro hinges on the tailfeathers till the unthinkable happened, someone set a "free" box outside their office door with a box of perfectly good 3.5" floppies in it. So now I have hinge material that it just the right size. |
| John M Oshust | Dumas Kit #302, Gee Bee | Build | 06-Sep-08 20:19 |  | | Views : 1378 | | The cowl and engine are not per Dumas. I changed the cowl a bit to make it more realistic. Building this is a blast. I have more CA on my fingers than I have in the "Z"! |
