Proud to be 51 asked:


My father-in-law is building a 1/16 model of the P-51 Mustang. He needs a 4-blade prop and I have searched the internet over and cannot find one that size. Does anyone know anywhere to get one, or have I missed a site on the internet? Please help me if you can! Thanks.
Here is a picture of what the P-51looks like (4-blade prop):

Kk asked:


I want to make a model of an airplane with propellers. I have heard somewhere that if put use a rubber band with the propeller in a way and twist it. Then, when you let go it spins the opposite direction the way you twisted it and makes it fly. I want to do this on my model plane but I don’t know how. Do you guys have ideas or websites explainning on how to do this?

What paint can I use on a radio controlled airplane?

bozo asked:


I have a dirty birdy radio controlled airplane that is thirty plus years old. I believe I painted the body with a product called hobby poxy which is no longer in bussiness. Any suggestion as to what needs to be done to repaint this airplane? Keep in mind that it will need to withstand spills of model airplane fuel of at least ten percent nitro ( in other words it needs to be fuel proof).

Fueling a model airplane?

By on January 3rd, 2009

RiSK asked:


I picked up a model airplane from a friend of mine. While I’ve flown them, I’ve never owned one of my own. For the most part, I’ve got the basics down; but for the life of me, I can’t figure out how to gas the thing up. I’ve got the fuel, fuel pump, etc. The engine is a Tower Hobbies .46 BB ABC (Google it if you need visualization), and the tank is behind the engine in the fuselage. How do I fuel this sucker up? I’m ready to go flyin’!
