    Real Flight 7.5...

    Yes, even if you are hosting and you start out by beginning the host session and you decide you want to change fields, No problem....change away. Just be courteous and inform your fellow pilots. As for the planes, you can select "ANY" plane you have from your list of loaded aircraft. Terry...

    Optimal throttle servo placement for a linear movement/motion

    Plus with it on the inside of the box, you can get more of a "straight" on geometry angle on it. The way that you have it mounted, it appears to me that the servo arm has to "raise" the link as it is pushing it. This geometry is going to change every time you advance or pull back on your...

    Do you like it? Huh? Well do ya?

    Problem is with Dave (Patroller), he is always too busy to help a friend out. Always off to the cabin, or off skiing or who knows what all. LMAO....just kidding Dave.

    Yikes.... Not good. Last time I had a damaged shipment, I made sure the UPS driver stuck around to "WATCH" me open the package. I think he was....um...Pi&%^ed when I called Tower to complain. LOL

    Your Package Arrived Smashed!!

    I've had the best luck with USPS also. That is usually what I request for packages being sent my way. And as for shipping from my end? USPS every time. Priority gets it there quick. Ummm....Kelly? You would so eat that Cheeseburger. YOU LIKE CHEESEBURGERS...repeat after me, YOU LIKE..... LOL

    Great Planes Matt Chapman Eagle 580

    Thanks for all the input everyone. I think I have decided to go a head and build it, fly the snot outta it and if it hits the ground? Eeh.... no big. I will just pull the components and toss the frame.

    Real Flight 7.5...

    Whoever hosts, can change the field you are flying at. It should start with the field you are already showing as your selected field. Damn it Paul...you're in Vegas? I just left there this morning. If I'd known you were there, I'd have bought ya a beer. :yesss:

    Do you like it? Huh? Well do ya?

    I was kind of thinking the setup will work good. Just going to K.I.S.S.! At present, I just returned home form the long drive. 400 miles to my sisters Thursday, get up yesterday and finish the other 1600 to Apple Valley and home. Ugh.... TIRED... LOL.. The Edge now resides next to the 260 until...

    Do you like it? Huh? Well do ya?

    So yea, it is a 50%'er. Bill Hempel design. I've really been wanting one and well, it just so happened two of them came available. One complete ready to fly. Which alas, is just too far away to acquire. That one, I would have sold my small 50cc'ers to have. Just not practical getting it here...

    Do you like it? Huh? Well do ya?

    Somehow....I "knew" that would be your response. LOL Umm....float it there of course. DUH.... LOL It was actually "HIS" that made me ultimately decide to do this. I watched his videos about a million times. Love that scheme. Oh you have "NO" idea....

    I JUST GOT TO HAVE THAT!

    You really aren't too vocal sometimes, but boy when you brain storm, it is a KO. Love the idea of receiverless communication. Sliding battery tray would be awesome and actually has been done on an individual basis. It is "hella-cool". Know what I want to see? I want to see fuel injection on our...

    Your Opinion-This is not a "Which radio is best" thread!!!

    Hmmm....how to answer this. It first would be fair to say I "LOVED" the Aurora when it first came out. 9 Channels then was pretty much the standard. It was easy to program, felt really good in my hands and did not weigh a ton. Lots of really cool features I knew I would be using. I loved the...

    Your Opinion-This is not a "Which radio is best" thread!!!

    Ah heck.... jus' do it. You know you won't be sorry. I have a couple of friends out here that switched over. They almost had me convinced, but I wanted to see how their outcome is on first. (I am using them as guinea pigs....shhhhh..)

    Great Planes Matt Chapman Eagle 580

    Short and sweet... I picked up a pretty good deal this evening. A Great Planes Matt Chapman 580 in the Yellow Embry-Riddle scheme. 100" wing span. Brand new in the box.... Anyone know much about these? How do they fly? Worth the time to put together? Can I beat the snot out of it?
