    Extra 300 104"

    I would not use standard voltage servos with Lipo batteries on the Powersafe receiver. I would use Life batteries if I had low voltage servos. Vegasking gave you the best advice. Personally I would get some high voltage servos and follow Vegasking's suggestion.

    Extreme Flight Extra 300 91"

    Find something like this that will fit your canister. Or you can make one from lite ply and fuel tubing. http://www.valleyviewrc.com/estore/carbon-fiber-canister-mount-single.html This is on my 78" EF Extra but it will give you some idea. You don't want the canister flopping around in there.

    Yeah both my DA70 And VVRC40 are well broken in now and almost zero black residue anymore.

    78'' Extra

    Da-35! The DLE 40 twin is wider than the VVRC 40. It won't fit in the cowl. DLE 35 should work as well if you can't swing the DA-35. Why not the VVRC I have one and it is excellent in this airframe.

    Video from our little impromptu Extreme Flight fly in at Cane Ridge park in Nashvegas yesterday. We are truly lucky to have not one but three city parks to fly at. It was a gas despite the weather! http://vimeo.com/114516453

    Extreme Flight 74" Laser

    They may not have brought lots of big stuff but my friend Richard NashVegas purchased his 91" Yak at Joe Nall on the second Saturday from the EF tent. Maybe someone didn't show to pick it up?? Saw it with my own eyes LOL. :o

    Sugesstions for a 60" EF 3D plane

    Doug, My 60" EF Edge is my "comfort" plane. It's a great airframe. I put a Demon Cortex Gyro in it for those windy days and it is just sweet in the wind. like it so much I have a backup airframe NIB sitting in the corner. That being said my 64" MXS on HV servos makes me giggle every time I...

    The 3DRCForums -Discuss Anything Thread-

    GYRO, I ran into these guys one day while down there visiting my father who lives near Destin. They had a static display of models going on at a park and they were very friendly and said that I could fly with them anytime and to just contact them. I haven't been back since but I will probably...

    Xfc 2014!

    When I was drag racing we commonly had live media stream feeds from all of the bigger outlaw races. I would imagine that the money and demand just aren't there for RC events. The streams were usually always free and depended on promoter/sponsor monies. These guys cover an event most every...
