isoaritfirst Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I would be interested in tungstem for the Fosa SL (Pitbull fuselage) but need to check weights and sizes before committing to order. I have a couple of pieces spare (too much weight) for my Radical. They measure 60mm x 12mm x 25mm. If the sizes are ok for anyone let me know, available at what they cost me.

Martin_N Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Fosa Lift - wing ballast for me please Martin. Cheers, J Just the wing ballast Jonathan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isoaritfirst Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 For info Keith, 4 + 4 brass in the wings puts a FS4 at 2540 which I think is about max. - might save you a couple of quid. Jonathan. Fosa wing slot is slightly forward of CG. which is why I think fuselage (which is a lot easier to change) may be the more user freindly choice.

Keith_W Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Martin please adjust to 4 + 4 as Mike suggests, thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_N Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Hi Keith, You can probably do either 6 pieces of tungsten in the wings or as I and Mike do, 4 and 4. Each piece of tungsten I have for the wings is 245grams and each brass piece is 130grams. Once I have left this open for a few more days to give everyone an opportunity I will circurate a mail and we can all confirm 100% Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith_W Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Hi Martin Are you meaning 4 in the joiner and 2 + 2 in the wings ? Do you have any idea of prices yet ? Mike 10 pieces of Martin's tungsten would be 245 * 10 =2450 gms, ok the joiner ballast is slightly heavier but not that much. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
