Worked on Kyosho Sonic Acro 1600

Kyosho Sonic Acro 1600 is now under construction to modify into Electric powered maneuver model. All the servos were burdened, Futaba BLS173SVi for ailerons and elevator control and BLS171 was for rudder control, especially ball bearings were applied on the pulling points of the rudder horn. Aileron servos were set at the lower position than it's original design preventing unnecessary projection of the servo from the wing lower surface. Activating values are fully adjustable on 18MZ transmitter program. Chosen power source, OS OMA-5025-375KV blushless motor would play a good part of maneuverability of this airplane?

Periodical Legal Inspection VW1302

Periodical Legal Inspection Test by the Author for Air-cooled VW 1302 Super Beetle was over with success yesterday. A 21W bulb in left rear combination lamp for back gear operation was out of order that had been replaced prior to the affair. About the fulfilled clearance between the rear fender and the bumper, nothing happened. So, my Super Beetle could be driven on public road for two years from now till the next inspection. By the way, my healthy body condition has some tendency makes me feel to refrain from driving recently.

My son sticks his beak on my working place, especially on the layout of fixtures and my management policy, how come?
He is attending to our business only one day per 4,5 days next week because of private reason, is it possible to be like that as a manager, how come. He exposes himself in a sweet environment of my existence, he takes anything is permissive here?
The time for generation change is come? I should disappear myself ASAP?

Laboratory equipment repair

One of the thumb head of plugs was repaired the other day, as shown in the picture, it's a very rare special device produced over 70 years ago. This is a part of Laboratory Reference Resistor Block device specially tailored for the laboratory of Dental instruments in Osaka Dental University. Almost a perfect and mint condition except that the defect of the plastic part as it is, long kept by me who was existed by chance that had been almost deserted as a dust. Consequently, made up my mind to restore the part by myself and did I it.
After fabricating split molds with plaster, adequate amount of autopolymerizing type resin was applied between them. Then, hardened plastic part with different color was painted in Black matte color with water-based paint as shown. This memorial device would be donated to the ODU Museum immediately after I go.   

VW 1302 Legal inspection

Head light direction and exhaust gas contamination were checked for the preparation of the periodical Legal examination check performed every two years that the regulation of Japanese Road Transport Vehicle Law. Because the light direction was not checked after painting two years ago, it was an indispensable manner for the inspection coming two weeks later at Kobe Hyogo Prefectural Land Transportation Office. Too high as it was and lowered as the matter of fact, it impossible to adjust precisely as to pass the inspection by the authorities without some specific measuring device, it was performed in TOYOTA dealer also exhaust gas test. As for the gas inclusion, 0,09%(4,5% maximum) of CO and 314 PPM(1200 PPM maximum) of HC were the result, I can regard that I did well adjust Solex 34 PICT 3 carburetor utmost prior to the measurement.
Only the Front wheel alignment is inspected in our country, no rear wheel alignment and constructive axle geometry such as the most important element, Thrust angle, the Japanese regulation 100km/h on the highway relatively lower limited speed might be reason for rough standard setting in the Law. So, no anxiety exists in wheel alignment.
My Super Beetle 11AD 1302 is so adjusted to meet with the standardized wheel alignment values as followings:
Front
Camber: R/L negative 40min/40min with driver weight burdened
Toe: 0,8 mm in total
Caster:180 min.
Rear:
Camber: R/L negative 60min.
Total toe:0
Thrust Angle:0

Reinforcement

Opened fuselage hole of Kyosho Sonic Acro 160 was reinforced with 5 by 5 cypress wood rod the other day. This kind of arrangement is an indispensable measure to establish enough physical strength as a maneuver model. Though some increase might be happen if this kind of modifying is performed for the convenience of Li-Po battery replacement, we must keep in mind that the lighter the better for any airplanes so far as the physical strength should be obtained because it is in the air.
