    THE EXTRA NG — THE NEXT GENERATION OF AEROBATIC AIRCRAFT

    funny you should mention that, i had an idea for a vortex generator right in that spot back when red bull air racing caught on. the idea was to trip air in hard pulls and pushes so it would swirl over the VG and into the cowl. maybe that's what they did, maybe not. i tried emailing different...

    IMAC Scratch build Laser 200

    I wonder if the nature of those printed parts is that there's some porosity between strands as they're laid down which gives the thin CA something to wick into and adhere to. that joint looked pretty strong!

    Rave F3A Rainbow Foamie Pattern Plane

    Here are the components I bought for it. If I were doing it again I'd go for a slightly higher KV motor and maybe a 13x8 prop instead of the 14x7 for a little more straight line speed. I'd maybe go for a 60A ESC also instead of the 40A but the 40A should be fine. Servos...

    Rave F3A Rainbow Foamie Pattern Plane

    Is it the F3A Rainbow? The DreamS? The Inspiration? The F3A A388? I still don't know! Came across this on Banggood.com for $90 (!!!) and wanted to share because it's been awesome! Only have a couple of flights so far and am looking forward to many more! Tracks straight, went together...

    Carb & Fuel Flow Question

    File under "Updates" The new carb is on and the engine is running but I'm not sure if it's been my technique or the new carb. Previously I was flipping the prop to prime the engine with the choke closed but wasn't flipping it quickly as I am now to ensure the prime charge is being sucked into...

    New Product Strick Pro Grip Radio Trays and Harnesses

    i tried to use a strap when i was doing aerial photography with the drones and it was helpful but it's another thing to forget at home so I try to go without. every once in a while i get tempted but try to resist. you guys make it sound like flying in an ankle length skirt is weird or something!

    New Product Strick Pro Grip Radio Trays and Harnesses

    Never saw these before, someone posted a link to them on :steamer::steamer::steamer::steamer:book. https://strick-model-products.myshopify.com/ I like the double shoulder style, probably goes well with an ankle length skirt. :msn_slap:

    Carb & Fuel Flow Question

    Sorry if that was you that made that suggestion and I ignored it! Well, I heard it and remembered it but forgot it was you! That carb will be a paper weight in a few days. Unless the one check valve is found to be stuck open or closed in which case I'll give it another try. I'll also look...
