Pappy kicked ass.... I met the pilot who shot him down at the airshow at Ellington AFB, in south Houston... Can't remember the date... 1990 something.....

[Grossman56]

You know you were 'memorable' when your life is discussed 60+ years later and everyone knows who you are.
Hope you're watching Pappy from the big Corsair cockpit in the sky!!

Warm up the oil.... If it is under 140F you will break you engine! LOL While it is warming up, just have a pull or two off the scotch bottle and have a hit of O2.... What else do you need??? Oh, arm the 50's..........

[Hardway]

I meant charge the 50's....

Yeah I met that guy too at the Reno Air Races about the same time period. He was selling a book he co wrote called Bye Bye Blacksheep.

Chris is telling me we need to find a JR MatchBox Servo Matching/Power System. It lets you use 1 Rx channel to control 4 servos but you can independently reverse and/or change the endpoints of each servo. We need one to sync the 4 flap servos on the Corsair. Unfortunately the item has been discontinued. Does anyone know where I can find one? I did find one on eBay for 90 bucks but Chris thinks I can maybe find one cheaper than that. Any help would be appreciated!

Alternate solutions (and probably why the Matchbox is discontinued)

A: If you have enough channels give each flap servo its own channel and use the computer radio to deal with it.

B: Digital programmable servos can be set up to match travels and do any needed reversing.

I'm your Huckleberry I'll do the maiden for youLOL

I would check the power bus that I supplied. It has multiple plugins for at least 6 servos for things like flaps. If you have any questions on that, check with Mitch at Down and Locked. You absolutely should not have to get another servo matching power system. That power bus also has two separate plug ins for independent power so your not draining the main batteries to operate your servos. I'm not an electronics whiz but Mitch assured me that this was all that was needed.
Thanks, Brad Go Hawks!!!!!
