    Next up in SC Region, Baxter 2nd Annual IMAC contest

    It was a great contest this weekend! It was Hot!!! We had over 100 degrees from noon until after 7 pm! Highest heat index I saw was 107 . The only saving grace was a wind from the south that would occasionally reach 12 to 15 mph. The final scores are below.

    Cool The I'm going out flying thread 2017

    Flew 3 rounds at the Baxter, OK IMAC contest today. It was HOT! We had 104 feeling like 107 for most of the afternoon. It was still 103 at 6:30 tonight. The LX flew like a champ and the 180 never missed a beat :)

    Question? Futaba 10J binding dual rx's

    Finally got someone to answer the phone and 5 minutes later my suspicions were validated. Set both rx's to Mode A, bind then, and split the plane up :)

    Question? Futaba 10J binding dual rx's

    I am trying to bind two 3008sb rx's to a 10J for redundancy/power distribution on a 40% plane. Can this be done by simply setting both rx's to Mode A operation or is it not possible? This is a plane for someone else that is not wanting to put a power distribution system in the plane. I have done...

    The guy I am getting it ready for got it off Craigslist for 1300! All he needed was a new tx, extra rx and batteries. Hope to get it in the air this weekend if the tx gets here on Friday.

    IMAC NATS 2017

    I thought there would be more pilots due to the fact of it being a Worlds qualifier also. I am assuming a lot of people are in the same boat that I am, can't take a week from work to attend :( Hoping to be able to go to the Worlds next year as a spectator. I know that I won't make it by points...
