Re: G-CCFE might be for sale later this year...

Hi Rob, Sorry to hear your having probs selling, if you were closer to me I'd have a share just for the fun of it! I assume the people who are too tall to fit have tried sliding their bum forward a bit and flying with their knees on the main spar? Thats how I had to fly and indeed how I fly my Cassu...

Re: G-CCFE might be for sale later this year...

Lol, RV8 is a very different machine to a Tipsy Nipper!

Chap who was too heavy must weigh a ton as FE has plenty of useable weight, I'm quite a big lad at 6'3" and never run out of weight unless the tips were full and even then it still flew fine...

Re: Nipper For Sale.

Hi Neil, Good point actually, internal tanks are another great sollution however I really liked the look that the Tip Tanks gave to the Nipper, horses for courses I guess ! Loving the Cassutt, just wish I had more time to fly it ! Certainly gets the pulse racing with a bit of a crosswind though ! Al...

Re: Nipper fo Microsoft FSX

I actually found an old FS2002 one and hacked it about a bit to get it to work in FSX. Didnt touch the paint etc but I did quite a bit of work on the handling and got it pretty close to my actual Nipper with regards speeds, climb rates and pitch & roll rate etc Welcome to use that as a starting ...

Re: Nipper grouping

Hi Neil, I got the digital G-meter from the following link, very easy to fit, the gap I had on the panel was a 2.25" but you might need the 3 1/8" to replace the current G-meter ? (Thats the MGL Velocity range instead of the Infinity range as below):- http://shop1.actinicexpress.co.uk/shop...
