Well i dont know it all, havent seen it all, but,,,,, thats about one of the dumbest setups ive seen, y do u need extra bungies on the back hooked to a cable, and deadmaned to ur axels, when u have the regular bush gear setup, seems to me ur addin junk, and dont have ur main gear setupmright for ur airpplane or ur type of flyin  there a video of him flyin around so u get a good look. That just seams like a not needed idea 

I agree, ive been in Louisiana all winter, just got back to Ester wed, plowed snow with the D9g, and D4h all day yesturday, so much snow here still there lots of flyin left but mother nature going to take it away fast, they callin for temps 45-52 in day and 27-33 at night. 

I c, thats good info,  think he lookin for grove tail wheel spring, im takin it off also. 

I sold an Avid A model project that was almost a flyer, got it with no motor, and threw in badly wrecked phazer snowmachine that ran backin Dec for $3g. 

I have a grove sprung gear on my KF5 im going to remove in about a month or so, im haveing custom bush gear built right now for it. 

What does a set of model 1 flaperons go for these days? Last i heard was like $1000 a set,  just wondering i have two extra sets for model 1-3.

Im down in Louisianna now till spring, so cant give u the measurements, think she is about 67”  backin plate to backin plate, and lifted at the firewall 4”.  This first set Randy built that was an extended set, give him a ring he still buildin others this same gear now, only with different strut springs, as i changed the ones he set with gear. To stiff. Look up my posts in model 1’s under kit fox questions i may have wrote all the details there

Damm now id curious for sure, love to own it, but not have time for it with mining in summers.
Ud never sleep much owning it to get it rolling, but once it was hold on b a heck of a ride!!! 

I tell u i really like my gear from Randy Moore, did some pretty bad and hard landings in my first solo flyin the other day and not a scratch. And only used about half of my gear strut movement. 

Here is what mine look like. 

well mine is for sale, i posted a pic when i had a listing like u asked, u never responded or buy, soooooooooooooooo????

Well cant b for sure but my KF5 grove gear dont look like that. The end where the axel bolts is different, i take and post a pic later. 

I have a bunch of Avid A model parts, flaperons, cut off motor mount for 582, fuse tail section, tail feathers, wing stuts, drag braces, doors, 

So much for the video, mine never post here. Sorry guys. 

Well didnt get out on Saturday for my bday, but sure burnt a bit of gas in 1.6hrs yesterday  fly my first solo, and first time from my runway at the mine. Didnt get any video of flyin from plane but did from the security cameras at shop. Hhahaaaaaaa ill bet i watched them for 2 hrs afterwards. Hahhaaaaaa

Right on!!! I did some flyin yesturday for my first solo!! 
 

Ohhhhhh!!! 3 landings!! Very good one Jeromef, i did some flyin for first time in my valley for my first solo’s yesturday and im sure i had a few of those marks i the snow, but i left so mayb tracks i covered them up and now cant c the evidence 

Sweet looks like ull b haveing a blast, im gettin out in my KF today for some of my first ever solo flight 

Yes thanks, i polished the windshield with a head light restore kit, then use pledge, thats what we have always use for cleanin, the Plexus was worthless on this for me believe it or not but was an old can been on shelf 5-6yrs, cause we like the lemon pledge. 

tried that, does clean it and shines but wont take the hazy scratches out.  The polishin kit does.  Thanks. 

hey Tjay, send me a PM, im not able to send u one, urs isnt open on ur home page, im about to start on the KF5 rebuild now that the KF1 is ready, and ill b removing and selling the main spring gear, mounts and axels, and rear tailspring. 

Insulated the inside of turtle deck some, figured wouldnt hurt. Hahhaaaa

Awesome tires for the money, looks like have gone up some since i last bought a set, but still worth it. Wish they made the 27” desser tundras in 6” rim. Id buy a set, have never seen a 6” to 8” rim adaptor yet. Just 6” to 10” rim. 

No problem buddy, happy to help out.

Well got the Oratex fabric part done, and buildin the lower section behind seat and the sides for the flaperon rods now. Well i have the wife sewing the parts for me. Hahhaaaaa
