Thanks! I’m finally back working on the Trojan again after a little hiatus (I published a book and built a new website since this last vid 😆 www.artofscalemodeling.com) I should have the next installment posted mid July. Next step is the retracts and doors which I’m about half way through at the moment.
15:58 Rear Canopy fit. Ha Ha, I flew them and when in the rear seat-for the Radio Instrument or RI phase of primary training under "The Bag", there was about a one or more inch gap on either side of the canopy open to outside air. Even in FL, but at 15K Ft. with O2 mask on, in January, it was cold! Could stick your fingers into the gap. We used to practice an instrument arrival procedure called a penetration. Supercharger back to low at 12,500, dump the nose, pop the board and point the nose down in the course according to the arrival procedure. So maybe the Mfgr was better than you think...BTW the heater operated on gas which meant it reduced your range. So you bundled up. As you can imagine the guy up front is toasty while the GIB is frosty. So there you go. Nice build. Does it have a speed brake?
Great build Chris, looking forward to hearing the engine in this bad boy. Love seeing your tips and tricks, never gets old, I just have to remember them 😃
Thanks Chris. Love the video, gives a clear description of the build. Some useful tips that i will use on my build. Look forward to the next build video. Thanks
They certainly Fly nice and it should it,s a Trainer after all. Have x 2 1 to 1 scales just living down the road. Ya know they coming sound like concrete mixes. Looks pretty straight forward build should sound excellent with Radial in it. Keep at it now.😊😊
Hi Chris Hope you well. Regarding the T28 build will you be posting videos on how you installed the Saito, also the fitting of the Sierra retracts. My T28 has just arrived from the USA thanks to my good friend in Indiana and would love to see how you have done yours. Love your videos and appreciate the time you take in making them. Many thanks.
Nice! I got sidetracked for a bit, but the t28 is being worked on again. The next vid featuring the retracts should be ready in a couple weeks hopefully.
Oh man! It’s gettin real! Love the pilots! It looks amazing. Will the retracts be next? Would rubbing some candle wax on the surfaces where the canopy slides help it glide a bit smoother? Just a thought…
That's a nice model and affordable that's what I like the most. Are you going to weather it and is there any major wrinkles in the film? I've seen some wrinkles on other planes from Legend.
I do plan to do some detail and weathering work on top of the covering. Wrinkles are very typical for an oracover finish but are easily taken care of with a heat gun.
Nice! I hate to say, but I’m running a bit behind on the build as I’ve had a ton of things happening behind the scenes. The next video will be the retracts and gear doors followed by the engine install and setup. At the moment, I’m not sure when the next installment will post just yet. 😬
@@Thercgeek I'll be keeping up with your build for sure. I have a "fix" for installing the radial after talking to Adrian @ch-ignition, so I don't mind passing it on as I am determined to install it on my plane. Once I install it, I'll let you know how it works out. Keep up the great work. You're doing a great job.
I hear you and understand. I’ve been using alphatic glue for these types of hinges for decades (trick my dad taught me) and never once had an issue or failure resulting from it.
@@Thercgeek My question is about the pilots what is their size or scale. Because I want to order the same ones and if you have the reference. I would also order the small module to move the head Thanks

read an article by bud davison years ago in model airplane news. he described flying the t-28 and its variations. i love the airplane !
Me too! You just can’t have enough t-28s 😆
Loving the videos of your build, waiting for the next one. Thanks for posting useful for when I start mine. 👍

This is going to be so friggin cool out on the runway, motor poppin and smoking, pilots checking out the scenery, taxiing out. Hell yeah 👍
I hope so!
looking great ! 👍
Thanks 👍
Brother, I should have met you long ago. I've seen you do the best. So inspiring. Bob ❤

Thank you! More to come 😊

Awesome, thank you!
Great work !! Awesome!
Thanks a lot!

Good morning,
superb achievement
I have a question about the size of the drivers and their scale.
THANKS
That's awesome Chris! looking forward to your build. I've already picked up a few tips.
Awesome, so glad to hear it! I greatly appreciate your kind support. 😊

I've always used epoxy on pin style hinges. No worries with strength when using wood glue? Plane looking great!
No concerns at all. I’ve been using wood glue for decades (technique my dad showed me) and have never had any issues.
Outstanding! Great to see the project really coming along my friend!
Thanks my friend!
Great model
Good job Chris 👍🦘
Thanks 👍
Oh man! It’s gettin real! Love the pilots! It looks amazing. Will the retracts be next? Would rubbing some candle wax on the surfaces where the canopy slides help it glide a bit smoother? Just a thought…
Interesting thought, I can give it a try.
Great work Chris!! Ready to fly this baby 👊🏼👊🏼
Can't wait!
Thanks!
Thanks so much man!!
Micro to large scale...who does not like T-28 !
True story! 😆

Awesome Brother !!!👍🏻✌🏻🖖🏻
Nice work dude! This one is gunna be rad
Hope so!
Wow - very impressive ! Is this rascal going to be IFR rated ?
😆 maybe… 🤣
just got mine. WHEN are you going to install the 60cc radial & post it for everyone?
Nice! I hate to say, but I’m running a bit behind on the build as I’ve had a ton of things happening behind the scenes. The next video will be the retracts and gear doors followed by the engine install and setup. At the moment, I’m not sure when the next installment will post just yet. 😬

Do you use silicone grease on the joint pins of those hinges before you glue them in ?
I used 3in1 oil to preserve the hinge points. Works great! 😊
👍🏻
What glue did you use on the magnets?
I used the starbond rubberized black ca.
Hi Chris
What servos are using.
Thanks
I have it listed with links in the description. 😊 Using Hitec D645 digitals for the primary flight surfaces and hs645 analogs for the rest.
@@Thercgeek thanks Chris
I would have used 30 min epoxy for the hinges NOT water base wood glue.
I hear you and understand. I’ve been using alphatic glue for these types of hinges for decades (trick my dad taught me) and never once had an issue or failure resulting from it.
Good morning,
superb achievement
I have a question about the size of the drivers and their scale.
THANKS
Are you asking about the servos? I have links in the description. Otherwise, what questions do you have?
@@Thercgeek My question is about the pilots what is their size or scale. Because I want to order the same ones and if you have the reference. I would also order the small module to move the head
Thanks
It is the 10” tall jet pilot from warbirdpilots.com
