I finally got the parts I needed to get my Dooling 29 back in action. A few years ago, the rotor split when I was flying it. There seem to be several types of backplate and rotor assemblies. I can't wait to run it.

Are you trying to make me envious? You've succeeded....  |

Finally got around to running the Dooling. Power seems down. It may be the rotor, maybe it just needs to be run some. If it picks up some, I will put it back into the Zilch X-pendable.

I hope you have more luck flying your Dooling 29 than I've had. I put it on a Ringmaster and took it to the VSC a few years ago. I was really going to impress people. Nope! It apparently isn't nearly broken in and I used too large a prop-9x6. It was a dog. The real problem was getting a tank in there that would work. I never succeeded. Quickly put a Fox 29 in it. Next year I tried something even more problematic. Same Ringmaster with a Forster 29. Same rear rotor problem, couldn't get a tank to work, even tried inside mount. So I put a Fox 29 in again. Maybe a Barnstormer with the upright mount will be more user friendly for you. Best regards, dale gleason

Mine ran fine in the Zilch using a Fox S NVA and a Taipan 9-6. That is before the rotor split.

I have a Dooling 29 that I had in storage for a number of years, It looks great and has excellent compression. I'm now into 90size+ warbirds. Does anyone know how much the Dooling is worth, I'm interested in selling it. Thanks

If it is unmodified, you might get $150.00 or more, depending on your presentation, on our friendly auction site. People there seem to have more money than brains. www.ebay.com |
