Balsa USA Stingray with DLE-20, RC Plane Build N0 35: Canopy and Pilot
Welcome to my build series of the Balsa USA Stingray RC plane kit. The Stingray 120 is a great trainer and sport rc plane with an 83-inch wingspan and powered by a DLE-20 RC gas rc plane engine. I will be using a Futaba transmitter system with Futaba or Hitec servos and receiver. This plane is designed for .80 to .90 2-stroke glow engines, .90 to 1.20 4-stroke glow engines, and 15cc to 30cc gas engines. I will be using basic techniques of building rc plane balsa kits (or at least the techniques I have learned to build rc planes).
All of these videos are on a playlist.
In this video I install my custom canopy and Williams Brothers RC pilot figure.
I have been building, flying, crashing, modi...

In this video I show how to assemble and paint a Scale Plastic Pilot Model by Williams Brothers. These are simple, fun kits, that are easy to assemble and paint using basic plastic model building techniques. For assembly I use Tamiya Extra Thin cement, Tamiya Putty, and Mr. Color lacquer primer and paints. Once assembled, I will install this pilot figure into an RC plane I am building in my nex...

    James, I don’t know if you see posts from old videos, but because of you and this little plane, I had been on the search for one for a while now. I finally scored one and I can’t wait to watch your build series again and build this little plane. I have a 25fp waiting too

    • @JamesRCPlaneTech
      @JamesRCPlaneTech 3 дня назад

      Yes, I do get all comments. Good for you scoring one of these kits. Thats awesome. One thing to look at is that because the kit is so old, I found some of the plywood parts delaminated, so I soaked a few with thin CA as I came across them to keep them laminated. The FP 25 is also great! Good luck with the build! Thanks for sharing the comments!

    • @robertmonroe2969
      @robertmonroe2969 3 дня назад

      Thanks! This is my second BUSA, and it goes to together well. Their instructions on the two so far are pretty good, there are a few things here and there they could explain better. If you have built a few kits , the BUSA shouldn’t be bad. I have only built the Stingray and the Smoothie, I don’t know how their more detailed plans build, like their scale WW1 bipes. But I imagine they aren’t too bad. I just take my time and read, re-read instructions. And if I had questions, I found that since these kits have been around a long time, you can find older forums with build logs or just posts about building the kit you have. You can do it😀

    • @JamesRCPlaneTech
      @JamesRCPlaneTech 7 дней назад

      I’d go with the kit instructions. Use a slow epoxy, like 15 or 30 min, and you can also reinforce with some fiberglass cloth wrapped over the wire on to the wood. Without knowing the kit I wouldn’t know whats better, dowel or wire, but the kit designers should generally know best, in my opinion.

    According to the DLE20RA manual, one is suppose to remove the carburetor throttle spring. It is suppose to reduce stress on the servo. I can see why you should and I can also see why you would not. Did you? Thanks for the video, I am building my first Gasser and finding your videos very informative.

    • @JamesRCPlaneTech
      @JamesRCPlaneTech 7 дней назад

      Hi, yes I removed it because if you don’t your servo will have to work against it in both directions. So your servo will be under constant strain. I don’t think you have to remove it, but I prefer to.

      Yep, good option. I use Magnets at times as well. The reason I didn’t here, is because each hatch is flush, or an insert, and I felt it would be hard to pry them open, those mags are strong. I did use mags on the canopy because I can pull it off.

Painting is not my skill set and don’t have the patience for this so will opt for a pre-painted one or 3D printed one. In fact, I find I usually go with non pilots like Mickey Mouse in the cockpit or my most recent plane I put a Mandolin and Grogu in the cockpit

      Awesome that you have some kits from your grandpa, Im sure he would be pleased that you build them, and even if you ding them up a bit, we have all been there. I think I have enough tools, probably to many, but Im sure you can sell them on ebay. The nice thing about ebay is you can see the condition and model tools listed which helps you decide the price. You can always as a little more, put out for sale, and if no one bites, you can just lower the price.

  • @softdorothy
    @softdorothy 15 дней назад

    Thanks! I'm pretty sure you want the blade parallel where it comes out of the plane. Your comment about woodworkers preferring that angle is I think about how you hold the plane when you're shaving with it - rotate your wrist a bit before sliding along your workpiece as though the plane is skidding a bit. The replacement blades on the Master Airscrew look to my eye like a fairly common blade used in matte cutters (used for matting images when framing). So probabyl not proprietary (but certainly not as cheap as the disposable shaving razors).

    • @JamesRCPlaneTech
      @JamesRCPlaneTech 7 дней назад

      Thanks, and yes I found that the blades have a model number on them, and you can get them cheeper from other sellers. About the planer, I also have a few for woodworking, and they have a lever that allows you to angle the blade. You are correct, you can just angle it with the way you hold it regardless of. All good, thanks!

    A small dab of oil will help putting the tubing on the tank nipples. Also thanks for using the proper terms in this build. Like tubing instead of piping. Tubing is measured from the I.D. And pipe is measured by its O.D.. And try to refer to the entrances to the gas tank as nipples. Enuf critical. Carry on. I can’t wait!
