From: "Keith84" Good afternoon! So I have yet to fly my firefly and I have been feeling reluctant to do so. I was wondering if anybody has a two seat kolb in texas and would be willing to show me the ropes! -------- 98' Kolb FireFly Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=445194#445194 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 07:08:03 PM PST US From: Herb Subject: Re: Kolb-List: the problem with Poly brush....and the rest.... Yep! too much air.. :-) That is what I get going from memory.!! 30 psi is where I needed to be... Bought two gal's of r8500. One wing is done save the trim...one more coat on the other and trim......Fuselage and tail feathers are done ..but fuse needs trim...Ran the engine with the 60 inch Warp drive...seems to have too much pitch...will set for about 6k to 6200 static...Then open her up once I get into the air...Trial and error...would like a three blade IVO however... Going to try the different engine mounts to start...but I have the standard ones now... All is good...frugal Herb On 07/25/2015 03:57 PM, John Hauck wrote: > > Too much air and not enough fluid. > > More reducer and retarder. > > Don't be cheap.
