Nick Motor timing is a bit of a black art, the mechanics of precisely what is going on are beyond me, but the effect is that by carefully adjusting the back...
Sorry but been too busy lately to read through all these messages but saw A10 kit at this site which also does international orders. www.ozeflight.com.au Hope...
its not going yet. I got the kit in the mail, and frankly its the worse ive ever seen. It might be easier for me to scratch build an a-10 then to build this...
thats a bold statement....the worst huh? i believe it though. sometimes i wonder if the guys that design these things try to build them before the go to...
well the instructions are just plain text, no photos. The parts are well marked if mark at all, and the moldigns are the cheap white thin vacuum for parts like...
There has been some comment on this site about the noise created by pusher props mounted just behind wings or tailplanes. Some recent aircraft, such as the...
not totally sure what causes it, but I do know that a pusher makes much more noise than a puller. My zagi makes a ton of noise. I don't think prop pitch or...
The greatest contributor to prop noise on a Mugi or even on a Zagi or even ANY pusher is the proximity of the prop blades leading edge to the body/TE/rear...
I have flown my zagi with speed 400 and a variety of props I have found the folders to be the quietest when set up as a pusher. If you want a quiet pusher prop...
Could you clarify what you mean by a cowl? Do you mean a ring round the prop, or are you talking about a cowl over the motor? If you mean a prop duct, how big...
dang. what kind of flight times are you getting on the zagi with that much power draw? I would imagine it would suck the batt's dry in just a few minutes....
JayGee I'm a thermal engineer working in consumer electronics products. Cooling assosicated noise is a big concern and the subject of much research in my...
thanks for the insight on that one. good explanation. that certainly explains why I can barely here my tractor plane, which has a much larger prop and motor,...
Tony I certainly second JayGee's vote of thanks, that is a facinating insight into what's happening. I've just built a new Mugi, which I sloped to start with,...
Nigel, Airfoil analysis ? Try this, though not specifically for modellers, and a little involved: http://airfanalysis.hypermart.net/ Click 'Demo Downloads' on...
... Also a little involved, but with excellent results on most airfoils, try out the public domain liscenced XFoil. There's a Yahoo Group with all the links,...
My thanks to Tony Rodgers, who has given the kind of answer I was hoping for about pusher prop noise. I always expected the mechanism to be vortices striking...

Hi, It's been ages since I put a poll on the yahoogroups site about correx colours. Thanks to the 32 people who answered but I would like to get another colour...
While not strictly to do with building and flying correx aircraft I thought an update on how to record your endevours on video might be of interest to some.. I...
Hi everyone, my name is Jake. I'm 15 and I'm in Australia. I just built my first Mugi and am hanging to fly it but don't know how to launch it. I want to know...
Hi Jake, It's slightly difficult to advise where you might find a cheap bungee as I've never shopped in Australia. However, depending on the size and weight of...
Watch morgans video for the launch procedure. Grab the mugi by the nose and hold it high above your head. Then give it an overhand throw twards the horizon....
Hi Jake, Im in the same boat as you, except I built a coreflute wing, not mugi, and have not flown before. Are you in NSW ? I know a few places to fly round...
Hi Jake, I'm in west Aust . What I did was to get a packet of large elastic bamds from the stationary shop. I joined a bundle together to get about 10 metres...
Hi there ~! How much does the launch of a Mugi differ from a fixed wing glider from a bungi ? Regards Sam ... From: John Lewis To: rcmugi@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
