Installing Robart Pin Hinges Part 2

[authorjmsurra]

That'll work too. I had good luck not tearing the covering when I made an "X" with the knife. It also helped with getting the correct angle when first drilling.

I used a small phillips head screw driver over the exacto knife to make my marks for the drill. The drill bit fell right into place nicely.

These were the giant sizes. Anything above a 60-90 size, I use them.

[OyePressStart]

what size hinge points are you using?

[rcskypilot]

It's awesome. I have two. You'll never find a nicer, more complete, or better running engine anywhere. There's a Syssa 30CC engine thread on RCU.

How do you like that Syssa ? It's made in the USA, right ? I'd buy it just cause that... but If I have good references it's better.

[rcskypilot]

De nada.

I have them in my Giant Super Sportster...They're beautiful. One large pack and one pack of 5, four per surface. Nicest plane around. What's your engine going to be?

Mine has a Syssa 30CC gasser, and it does anything you want at 3/8ths throttle. Balances perfectly, though!

@rcskypilot I have a Zenoah G38 pilling it. Whole lot of power. Little heavy for plane, had to put 12 oz in tail, but I'm happy. The plane was ready and flying, when last time I found 2 paper hinges cracked right wing and 2 more left wing, so I'm replacing hinges for robarts. Thanks for the help. Gracias.

Thanks, I'm doing these hinges in a Giant Super Sportster as of right now.
