    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    The color display with the ability to add an image for each plane is pretty cool. Other than that, I don't know what else I would need with the other 10 channels :) Now if I win the lottery, then all bets are off :mario-banana:

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    The person who originally owned the plane knows how to build. The build quality of the plane is awesome. Right down to the last details. I am sure you hit the nail on the head about knowing how to store an engine :)

    Got the Carden 330S that I am working on for a friend fired up last night for the first time in around 7 years! I have to hand it to DA on this one. I filled the tank about 1/2 full and started flipping the prop with the choke on. On the 12th or 13th flip, just as I was about to give in to...

    The battery does read 72% :) It is caught between the divider :) The reason you see 0 for the rpm is because my optical sensor flakes out on anything less than 1200 rpm for some reason. It works accurately above that so, I am not messing with it :)

    Went out tonight to test a 2 blade prop on the 180. I borrowed a Falcon 30 x 14 from Cam, @orthobird, to see how it would handle the pitch. Nowhere near enough prop. It turned 6300+ on the ground and over 7100 in the air! This is on JMB cans. Needless to say the vertical was INSANELY FAST! Even...

    I have went away from the SWB tray due to centering issues. Once I linked the servos, game over, dead on centering every time. I may have needed to tighten the linking cables more but, hind site is always 20-20 :) It was nice to get rid of the extra weight also.

    This is going to sound bad but, as long as you have the timing chain cover off, you may as well replace the timing chain unless it has very little time on it.

    That is a strange noise. Sounds like a bearing is dry or not seated square. Does it make the same noise without the top of the case on?
