Yep, a .COM.AU site. Low temp solder. They seem to have a large variety of these things. Some where (long ago) I remember reading something...
Low temp solder or still required an iron? Think I can make out the part number from the pic. I'll try to look it up.
Exactly.
For you old tin drivers, I used to be an engineer for DEC. Our PDPs (computers) used to control those flight sims at many places. I managed the...
In good spirit my friend. Pushing our 58 x 18 Bert without thrusters in any marina with a smile has taken some time to master. Past experience...
Nothing beats a good (cheap) rum after a perfect landing. See #4 above. Cheers to us all. :)
Just looked the AP70 up. Looks cool. Enjoy, rc
I was spoiled to the ole Robertsons stuff. When the Simrad AP stuff came available, It turned out to be good stuff also. I locked onto a AP25/26...
We manage a boat with 671tib's. Dock queen that fast idles around town for the last 10 years. Owner found diesel fuel cheap this fall and ran the...
BTW I still can not push our Bert sideways on calm water with 32 inch wheels. Adapt and over come. BTW We don't have no stinking thrusters either....
Docking, inland operation, rules of da road, navigation and traffic schemes are great to learn on a simulator, But, there is a pucker factor that...
Where did the limited life comment come in on that other thread. The 92s use some of the same mfg's and similar equipment. AND, the same failures....
I didn't mean anything negative about 92s, just thought I'd throw that in at no extra charge.
That should be just; 8V71TI or 8V71TA. DDC gave up on that straight (experimental) 8 during the 40s. Packard did also.
Hum,, eerr,, aahh,, TA's were used in marine engines. 71s and 92s used them. Mostly during the Penski era and usually (not always) with DDEC....
Yep. Nice and shiny.
Didn't we have a thread (of jokes) re Lucas? Yea, Yea,, The first to bottle smoke and offer a DYI kit to put the smoke back into the wires when...
Once that bearing allows the shaft to wobble, shift or fly out of tolerances at all, the turbine wheels/vains may come in contact with the...
At many, many thousands of RPM, the common shaft is under a lot of heat and pressure. That bearing holds it all in place and together. That poor...
Without altering the designed tune of the engine, It is best (IMO 71 Junkie) to keep all stock. My 12V71TIs still use the original dry turbos and...
