worried it could be a little too big ?

[yogi]

Hi All, question looking to upgrade the elevator servos on the Mig29 was thinking about AGF B26CLM ….. after something with a little more torque and more throw. Any suggestions?

Buy the shroud for the 2150 fan. Motion only sells it as a set I think.

Yes, they don’t fit. Not even close.

The question is how to solve this, can anything be done about it. On motionrc they claimed it would fit... Grinding the rotor is a bad idea because it will be unbalanced. It is too wide by about 1 to 1.5 mm. Maybe grind the stator? Because the motor mount fits, only the diameter, I don't know why it has that size.

Has anyone of you replaced just the nozzles in the rotors with these new 12-blade ones?

I have a problem because they are too wide

[Vondug]

Yes I used middle compartment on the vt version. test flew other day battery up front, balanced 10mm behind wing cg marks. Nose heavy! nose retract servo took a crap so waiting on new one to come in! will give more updates!

[Elbee]

Definately use forward bay for battery! Learned the hard way, test flight day before yesterday! It did not turn out well! Replacement parts on the way!

Vondug,

terrible what happened on your first test flight.

Welcome to Hobby Squawk, glad to have you onboard.

Best, LB

What happened ?
Did you use the middle compartment ?

Hello dear airplane pilots !
I would like to have your opinions (also look at the pictures), because I am preparing my MIG for its first flight in a few days !

• To have my MIG balanced on the manufacturer's CG, I must use the second compartment at the very front of the plane. The one in the middle gives me a rear CG. For information I use spektrum 6S - 5000mah - 50C - 690g. I installed the blue box and the receiver under the rear battery plate. What do you think ?
• Also what do you think of the rates proposed in the manual ?

waiting your answers,
Thanks 😁
Olivier

Hugh Wiedman, that is just crazy smart. Bravo Zulu, Sir. Best, LB

Thanks LB, but "crazy smart"? Many folks use that first word to describe me, but almost no one, including my CO, ever use the second word. 🤯

Hello,

I have just applied all the decals on the vertical stabilizers. They do look great. I can recommend to use decal softener for a great looking finish.


Does anyone know, where the camouflage decal is going? In my attached screenshot it is marked orange.

I cannot see it from Alpha's pictures. Possibly somebody can upload a picture of his MIG-29 with the decal applied?

Thanks for the hints.

Br, spcboarder

Apply the included waterslide Tiger decal, port and starboard, to depict this livery:





Here are the decals themselves, out of the box:






And showing the Tiger decal's placement (self-explanatory... just apply it directly over the existing camo decal on the vertical stab)

Spaghetti is gone 😁🍜

don't now how accurate it is

Nice wiring, until they come up with wireless servos and on board Wi-Fi, the "spaghetti" wiring demon will continue to plague us all. Some time ago, Jandro ( Airguardian ) had suggested in this forum to locate the RX under the "floor boards" to help alleviate some of the mess in wiring. Obviously I follow all of his suggestions faithfully and did just that on my Mig and F18. The only negative is the reduction in cargo space for my hidden on board illicit contraband. The AR 10360T is under the back battery tray and I also installed a Hobby Eagle gyro for the TV nozzles back there and off to the side. A remote satellite is located up in the nose as well. I was able to place the 2 SMC HiV 5900 batteries with one all the way back and the other in the front bay, with the Castle 20amp BEC in the middle, and still get it to balance at least 25mm behind recommended CG. Maybe the extra weight in paint , TV nozzles, afterburners, 3D printed nozzles and relatively light weight of those packs allowed me to use the front and back bays and still get the CG I wanted without adding any tail weight.
