    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    The 2206 on a 9x4.7 has similar power to the 2204 on a 8x4.3 on 2S. However, you will have the ability to go 3S later. Also this plane likes some nose weight. So I would recommend the swap.

    Building of the 30cc Slick 540 from Redwing RC!!!

    It depends a lot. A thinner airfoil or a sharper leading edge will both make for a cleaner, more abrupt stall for better high alpha. The AJ Slick has a thicker airfoil with a sharper leading edge than what some other manufacturers use, but the HA feel is great. The same goes for a lot of...

    10-12S Power and servo system for 78" airplanes

    So I have resigned myself to the fact that nobody will buy my Challenger so I guess I will part it out and keep the airframe for when the urge to fly it again strikes me. Motor: Scorpion SII 5525-210, still NIB from warranty replacement of an earlier version, the S5525-225. I had magnet issues...

    DA-150, 12 flights

    Thanks guys, I hope someone picks it up soon. 150's are awesome engines and last forever.

    DA-150, 12 flights

    I bought an airplane with this engine installed and swapped in my 170, so I'm selling this engine. Starts easily and runs strong like any DA. 800 bucks shipped. Included is a set of DA 150 mufflers. If you don't want the mufflers I will knock off $100. I also have a set of headers I can sell...

    Except for the part where I crashed it...good thing that never made it to video.

    The 3DRCForums -Discuss Anything Thread-

    I have a 14SG and love it. It feels fantastic and performance has been great with helis, airplanes, and gliders. The build quality is much better than the old 8FG and the ergonomics are also improved quite a bit. However, receivers are quite a bit more expensive than Spektrum (even the...

    The 3DRCForums -Discuss Anything Thread-

    You can sometimes get really good deals used tools on Craigslist, something like a drill press is the kind of thing that people will get rid of cheap. Or you can get your time wasted by idiots, it's kind of a crap shoot. Failing that, Harbor Freight like Gary said is a great option for cheap...

    12S power systems ideas and options

    When I got the motor in my 10S Challenger, I had to take it apart and file down a burr on one of the stators as it would hit and catch on the magnets when I rotated it. After 20 flights or so it threw a bunch of magnets. Innov8tive offered to replace it, but it was discontinued, and they had...

    Another 91" EF Yak 54 Build

    I've got a little under 20 flights on mine and love it. Awesome rolling airplane. I have flown it with and without a spinner and the spinner improved precision and rolling performance drastically. It was really shocking how much better it flies with a spinner. It also came out a bit tail...

    Extreme Flight 74" Laser

    Yeah I don't know any more about availability than you guys unfortunately. I can tell you that it flies awesome. It's everything the small one is (fast roll rate, very precise, very floaty and gentle, and extremely tumbly) while being more stable and consistent in the larger size.

    Extreme Flight RC 91" Yak 54 build

    You would be chastised for running a GP as well! Anyway, I can tell you for sure that there will be at least one 91" plane at Nall with a DA-70 in it in the EF tent. I am almost done with my 91" Yak with a 60 on an RE2. I had my carb flipped over when it was in a PAU Extra, so the needles...

    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    Yep, Benton is a nasty pilot. He has a great attitude as well and he is certainly going places in this hobby. I got a quick teaser video together. Full length feature coming soon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUGTx2nJCAc
