Remote Fuel Control Valve #142 PHOTO: CALVIN MCCARTHY
049 or TD-051 glow engine for power but time moves on. Mine is pulled by an 8–3.8 prop driven by a Model Motors AXI 2212-20 brushless motor with 3-cell Li-Po battery. Construction is hot wire cut foam wings using the original Evans ESA-40 airfoil and sheeted with light 1
-inch balsa. The fuselage is the original
sheet balsa as per the plan, simplicity itself. Control is by the use of two Hitec HS- 65 servos and a Hobby King Fr-Sky TFR4-B four-channel FAAST compatible receiver. Very solid from a hand launch. Fast and maneuverable and slows down very nicely for its belly landing. Its shape is also an attention grabber as it flies above the flight line long nose first, so it doesn’t see a lot of flights per season.”
Super Buccaneer by Dick Shields
Dick Shields has been flying with the Rock Valley Fliers in Rockford, Illinois, for a number of years and loves to scratchbuild the classic models of the past. Dick scratchbuilt this Buckeeneer and updated it for modern electronics. Dick built his Buckeeneer with traditional balsa and light ply and powers it with a BP Hobbies 2826-64 brushless motor
The Fourmost Remote Fuel Control Valve is a device that allows the modeler to have com- plete control of his needle valve setting throughout the models operation. The
adjust the needle valve modeler can
setting midflight, maintaining the optimum RPM for various flight and engine conditions. When the model is on the ground the Remote Fuel Control Valve enables the modeler to adjust the needle valve setting, while keeping hands clear of propellers and other moving parts of the engine. The Remote Valve also provides a shutoff function. This may be activated while airborne or while on the ground, ensuring safe engine operation. $11.95
