Good video and good explanation, however, one thing not mentioned is to explain loading vs. unloading the wing. We talk of angle of attack but I...

One of the simplist carbs ever built, 1940s tractor carb. Easy to take apart and put back together. If you sink the float in boiling water it will...

the guys that know the carbs can tell things just holding it in there hands. at columbia ask for doug.

not that theres anything wrong with him, which ive never done business with, but saying hes your best bet, please explain???

There are bolt-on rear fittings, not really pretty, but they work. Cubcrafters and others sell them.

I thought that a real "overhaul" would include disassembly of the throttle butterfly mechanism and checking dimensions, rebushing the throttle shaft,...

I'm in the middle of overhauling my Stromberg right now. Get yourself the stromberg manual from Aircraft Spruce and compare the orifice sizes (drill...

Seems like an inadvertent advertisement for AVEMCO. The others just had excuses and conjecture. Granted they are brokers, not underwriters like...

Reminds me of my first spin with instructor (unintentionally on my part) but we were doing slow flight and he mentioned the ball a few times, then he...

That's a video that should be watched by every student pilot. He did a great job explaining it in a way thats understandable and visually showing it...

I would like to be convinced this action is 100% accurate. Once that is done, I'll be more apt to accept them. Until then............................

Welcome You will find a lot of great info on this site. Where are you located? One thing to think about early is what is the mission for the...

yes, i did fly in one, it was a very nice build one with 130HP, the 701 is a good performer, and i also have noting negative to say about them except...

just wondering if youve ever flown in a 701, i havent and have always wanted to ride in one, so i cant say a word negative about them, so i guess...

Really depends on the drone and how it is being used. 20 lbs would require a FAA Part 107 UAS license. I had to get my 107 for work, since I...

My buddy Dave had a funky right side spring on his Summit skied Super Cub after 2 ski seasons. Cooked by the exhaust. Good catch Randy;-) Glenn
