    @josephmarciano4761 we didn't have many kits in Australia back then. We used to build planes at an old Korean mustang pilots house. Guy was a genius, he would draw up plans for anything you wanted to build. Excellent draftsman, taught us how to build anything but he loved old timer free flight. We used to run for miles to find those planes. He was messed up from the war , we used to hear him having nightmares when we went there early in the morning. Of course the Australian government traitors didn't give a shit .

    Beautiful! Reminds me of College days, MVMAC and Bill Melton, Jim Young, and the Alberson brothers in Las Cruces, NM, USA. They tried like hell to teach me to fly stunt. They deigned the "Road Runner" loosely based on the Nobler,. Although I had the Nobler, I was a lousy builder and it never did fly right...

Going to get my legs back on the venerable profile Ringmaster then build my last all time favorite (I was 16) the Nobler. This time though, they will all be from scratch. Looking forward to the smell of dope in the air again.

    It might be difficult to find a narrow enough clunk tank to fit. Building from scratch you could widen the fuselage sides spacing to accommodate a clunk tank possibly. Because I used a super tiger 46 I had to custom make a 5 and 1/4 oz fuel tank to fit in that narrow compartment.

    Why still using the old way of a sort of "regular" pitch prop and that to get a slow flight then get the engine to run rich on the verge of four-stroking ? I know this is how it's been done for decades but back in the days there were not much low pitch props around and engines were more noisy - but now you can get any pitch and blade with you want. Also one can get a better muffler. OK I get it that anyway most fliers probably converted to electric at least for F3B or fun flying, but anyway has anyone tried lower pitch prop with the engine in it's more "natural" RPM-s ?

    Thank you Statek63 for watching and commenting. Remember this Nobler was designed in 1950's and is considered a "Classic" stunt ship. It is designed around the low power engines that was available back then. The Fox 35 engine was the engine of choice in those days using a 10" x 6" prop. I still like the old classic 4-2-4 engine run you described in your comment. The beauty of the 4-2-4 engine break was to give you the maximum power you need during the maneuvers not during level flight. The low pitch props are used in engines like OS 40VF and others which use carbon fiber tuned pipes and I believe the prop pitch was in the 4" range and the rpm's were much higher and the engine run was more of a constant engine run through out the complete flight. The tuned pipe setup is in use with more competitive control line stunt models.

    A pilot must narrow his focus to the airplane and only view the airplane. If a pilot looks at the trees and the blades of grass and everything else it will cause dizziness. Great question by the way. Mr Weiss please come and watch Stunt Hanger Video Hangouts every Monday and Friday night I host the show starting at 6:45 pm PST. The show is on the Stunthangar KZread channel .
