Retired guy working on the 3rd edition of my bucket list, I like SCUBA diving & under water photography, photography in general, travel, water gardening, and RC airplanes, boats and cars. You will see an eclectic choice of videos depending on what today's activities are. My goal is 100k views on my channel.... Now through hard work and diligence I have reached my goal of 100,000 views, I am upping my goal to 1,000,000 views. I have always set goals in life and I am proud that I have reached and or surpassed them all!.............
what I need to do is solder together a 6 gauge wire onto a 16 gauge wire so my plan is to get the eight gauge wire strip some wire out then gets the 16 gauge wire and strip more of the wire out and wrap it around the 8 gauge wire like a spring but tightly coiled so that all the wires are touching while I wrap it around kind of like those Springs that are coiled tightly together and you're meant to pull them apart to make it like a pole spring that I push in Spring if you understand what I mean by that once I coiled it tightly around all the way to the end then I'm going to put a soldering iron at the bottom of the wire and then the solder will touch the top of the wire so that it'll melt into the solder into the wire I mean that's making a solid connection and then putting my shrink tube over it this way I get better connectivity cuz too much solder a group of solder on top I don't think that's very efficient I think letting it melt into the wire it'll be a better connection and then adding the shrink wrap tubing will give it the strength and not to break apart the reason for I need to do this is because the device has two negative and positive wires that are 16 gauge and I can't connect the 8 gauge directly to the device from the inside so I have to use the 216 gauge wires and then connect them onto the eight gate the reason why I need an 8 Gates is so I don't have any voltage drop because I need about 36 ft of wire and if I were to use the 16 gauge of 36 ft they would be possibly voltage drop and the device wouldn't work properly so the 8 gauge wire will prevent from any voltage drop for a 12 volts and 6 amps thus I will have a good conductivity without any voltage drop
This was my first RC airplane! It's the best! I put a cox .049 on mine and would have flights that lasted easily over an hour (only landed when I got tired).
I bought a $30 soldering iron kit from Amazon. It will not get hot enough to run solder on the small wires. I just bought a more expensive, name brand solder iron hopefully it does its job
Please give me some information about when Russian garlic crop is planted and after how much time it is harvested. Please give me complete information about cooking it.
We live in Northwest Missouri, We plant the middle of August and harvest it on or near July 4th. By the way the plant will start producing a seed pod in early June which has to be cut off as soon as the end of the Scape starts to curl. The Scape can be eaten many different ways such as salads and stir fry. They are very tasty and have a definite Garlic flavor. Thanks a big bunch for watching.
I got my Kavans today. Here's what you can't see. The Kavans are very light, yes. But they are made of a very stiff polymer that feels more like plastic than rubber. The dubro tires feel like supple rubber. They would grip pavement, while the Kavans would slide around.
about 8 years ago I watched this video and now I'm wondering if this system would work on the outside of a wood-framed shadow box I'm building for my granddaughter? I want to protect the inside of the shadow box from the weather with your iron-on system, will this stick to a wood frame? January 26/ 2024 8:42 hours.
It should work, I have covered balsa wood airplanes with the same technique. Just practice on something before you jump into it. Thanks a big bunch for watching. DG
Not necessary to sand just make sure it is clean. Make sure you do the nose well. As a trainer plane the nose and motor are first to go. That is a great plane
make sure you follow the instruction for initializing the radio to the stabilizer and check that the controls are moving the right way when you move the plane .. This will assure many successful flights. @@Wings_of_foam
I made it It originally had one for an O49 gas engine. Not hard, start with the piece of balsa shaped to the top of the wing. Some down and sideways thrust. The rubber bands that hold the wing on will hold the engine pod. Have fun
You're probably right, there are a million other videos online about soldering. THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND that yours is the absolute best. Thank you so very much for your clear and well communicated message. I can now solder.
I know this is a old video but I'm building a 1.3ghz to 5.8ghz repeater, my question is will I have the osd working the same as if I were flying with 5.8ghz
nice Trailer I stole ideas from as many folks as I could when I built my trailer. Love the rear leg idea, my trailer is a tandem, so it's not such a big deal. here's a link to my "toybox" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RB8CR0d3Tik.html
@@DickGibson hi, Its me again :-) I will take back my first words! You can cover foam! I try it on my "hype fox" glider,with oracover scale white,,and the finish looks close to gfk,even when the place is absolut clean. Also oracover have a manual for covering foam(temperatures ect).. Really cool :-) .... The strength after covering is awesome! Hope it works for long time,.....
I liked your video, And here is my stance on this. To add insult to injury.., as much as I LOVE Sig... you will NOT get a hold of anyone there at the time of this posting. I have sent 5-6 emails and called 40-60 times in the last 4 months (2023)the word is thy are moving to a more modern facility. and I have ordered and got my stuff from them with lightning fast results, but it has to be what they have on hand or in stock. But there is 0 response from Sig (right now) I have danced this tire dance before, and crunched the numbers too. It is now my opinion....... Tires are "Crucial" during Landing and take off too, but especially LANDING, wind, bad judgement, terrible terrain, pilot error, equipment failure.... etc. But the tires can make or BREAK a bad landing or just plain bad situation. I'll comp the weight of duBro's every time.. they have saved me so many times. They're like a stronger motor or battery is heavier, it's "The Cost" for the reward. And LANDING is mandatory no other option.... well,. crash or tear something up And at the end of the day... if you are running a big enough plane to justify bigger tires like 5-6" (like me) the plane can absorb and handle that weight., it's just part of it.. like anything else. You have to allow for it and accept it. My money goes for duBro. They have been around a long time have earned my business and loyalty. Their quality of tire is unbeatable to me,. Lighter is not always better, cheaper is not always better. Cheers.
