    For Sale 3DHS 106 Edge 540

    Up for sale unfortunately is my new-ish 3DHS 106 Edge. The plane has flown only twice, due to some unexpected expenses I have to let this one go. I did not spare expense when I built this bird, the only part that was not new was the receiver. Savox servos all around, all the servo leads are...

    HobbyKing Piaget EPP build log

    No I have seen it done before. On this plane I would be cautious though just because of how thin the foam is.

    HobbyKing Piaget EPP build log

    I am assuming that the hardware stays in place and you a just loosing the prop? I had this issue with another set up and it was caused by a loose O ring. What i did was go to the auto parts store and find a O ring that was thicker and just a hair smaller diameter. It was a pain to put it on but...

    APC "Electric" vs. "3D" Props

    you bought electric props for your 20cc? I don't know if that is a good idea or not, I have always purchased electric or gas prop depending on the engine/motor. From my understanding the 3D props are variable pitch, meaning the pitch by the center is different than the pitch at the tip and they...

    3D Newb, what's first?

    The realflight 7.5 is a good sim. I use the same one. What has worked well for me is find something in the 3dpedia that looks cool and read it, watch a video or two then start working the sim until I get sick of it then play with hovers or something else do a few good landings then hope the...

    3D Newb, what's first?

    I learned quite a bit with the same profile. It will flip around easily and knife edge like non other. My opinion is slow rolls and knife edge work, knife edge flying, loops, turns, high alpha canopy towards and away from you. get used to seeing the plane in different orientation and get used to...

    3DHS Extreme Flight Slick 580 60" Build and review

    I have the EF Edge 60" and @Bipenut53 has the extra 60" we both run the 16x7 sense we tried them. I have tried several of the 15 with various pitches and they are now sitting in my spare parts box to be used if I am in a pinch. I really enjoy the 16x7, very sensitive throttle response and a ton...

    3DHS Extreme Flight Slick 580 60" Build and review

    Yes sorry, I am running 6S 3650Mah, right now I am taking it easy at 6 min flight times. I will continue to watch the battery but I suspect i could get 7 min of fairly hard flying out of it. I have some 4000 batteries but did not want the extra weight

    3DHS Extreme Flight Slick 580 60" Build and review

    Well here she is :mario-banana::mario-banana: For size comparison here it is next to the 3DHS 51" Maiden and the following few flights went extremely well. Take off was a typical maiden, a little exciting at first but with a few clicks of elevator trim and aileron trim all was well. I...

    It is an interesting change. I just watched a video on here that covers some of the changes pretty neat stuff just going to take a bit to learn to navigate the new format. one thing that i cant seem to figure out yet is the notification flags on the classifieds and the 3drc. I cant get the...
