Re: Top Flite Cessna 182 Arf I agree.... not sure if it was this post or the twin otter one were someone posted a video with a large 4 engine bomber and the flyer did loops, rolls and other non scale flying and you could hear the announcer make comments of how great that " looked" . What a crock ! Screwed up the whole thing and I would have to give a minus zero for that pilot. When you build them scale they should be flown scale IMHO . Yes ;if the people were not standing there ( 182) would be hard to tell from the real thing. |

Re: Top Flite Cessna 182 Arf Nice to see some good video too. If it weren't for the dimwits standing out next to the runway to block the view every so often it would be perfect. Buddy on the stick did some sweet scale flying. And that landing, WOW!! |

Re: Top Flite Cessna 182 Arf Yes isn't the sound of it something. Ran into that one last week and couldn't believe it.... almost as if he had a sound card in it ! |

Re: Top Flite Cessna 182 Arf I would almost sell all my RC stuff to finance something like this! |

Re: Top Flite Cessna 182 Arf Got the lights installed in the Cowl and now working on building flashing lights for my wingtips and top of tail. Everything is pretty much scratch built. Will try and get to Picks when I get time. |

Re: Top Flite Cessna 182 Arf What I have here are 8mm wide led's used in flashlights. Should provide some good light except in bright daylight. I would only use them on overcast days and on early evening flying when light will help to see the aircraft on final. Will post some pictures when I get them installed. I have a few extras in either 4.5-6 volts and in 3 v. Here is a photo of the bulbs I will be using. Very good light . will try and work out a holder so they can be taken out for cowl cleaning or painting. Don't have to make any lens cover as the bulb will also double as the lens cover. My hole is the size of the lens and it will be held in as far as the metal flange with a small clamp from behind. Tried to take frontal picture close but can't get up close enough with my camera ; gets all blurry. |

Re: Top Flite Cessna 182 Arf Latest improvements in main gear by using the ARF mains and wheel pants. Now gives me at last 2 inch prop clearance. I may go with 1/4 inch smaller main wheels as I would like the rear sit a bit lower. Next are the cowl landing lights to be installed. |
