    IMAC practice tips for new pilots.

    Thanks man!! I'm going to see...I'm planning on 5 contests this year and if I have any free time I might head over to the State College contest if that pans out.

    IMAC practice tips for new pilots.

    From judging school...a BIG thing they mentioned is centering maneuvers on lines. Anyone who went to the NC judging school understands how much they're pushing that deduction. It's an easy thing to forget about. Something I'm working on myself is establishing a TRUE 45 downline...I tend to come...

    First 100cc and IMAC dedicated plane

    I just know firsthand how the EF FOB (EF and 3DHS) are designed. There is a LOT of work put into the airframe design for performance. While I admittingly have no experience with Pilot and how their planes are designed...I do understand that most China-designed airframes are simply designed to...

    SOLD! H&M Performance 59" corsair ARF w LADO Retracts, NIB - RARE

    If you clicked on this, you probably know about H&M and how well their three models flew. This DOES come with the aluminum mount. This also includes rotating LADO electric retracts along with some spare parts from the first one i built. I also have a great NIB Scorpion electric motor for this...

    First 100cc and IMAC dedicated plane

    So I've been flying the older 3DHS 103 Extra last year in Basic and this year in Sportsman...with a DLE111 and not only to I think it flys amazing for IMAC....I've received a LOT of compliments. While I haven't flown the new 3DHS 108 Extra...Steven McCormack won Sportsman in his region last...

    IMAC practice tips for new pilots.

    The shakes are normal at your first contest!!! and...even after you're used to everything...if you mess up one maneuver...it's not uncommon to re-acquire those shakes for the rest of that round.

    Booma RC Intellimatch?

    Still loving mine. I'm working on assembling a 170cc plane and will be using Intellimatches on ailerons, elevators, and rudder. I'm using programmable Hitec's so I really see a benefit of matching with 100 points instead of just 3.

    Redwing RC Product Update June!

    The Hidden Dual Battery Redundancy Switch is actually a product of BoomaRC. (Looks like Redwing is just another US distributor for select BoomaRC products) http://boomarc.com/en/hidden-balance-switch-with-pin-flag

    Basic engine tuning.

    Thanks for this. I've had some great tuners help me out...but they never told me what they were listening for...and then which way they were turning the needles. Again, thank you!

    3DHS Yak 55 91" - vibration issue

    If I were you...I'd try to pinpoint the place that is allowing the waggle. (is fulcrum the correct term here?) It might be a broken former or a glue joint that popped apart. Might need to look inside towards the tail while someone is holding the plane (while idling) to see. My point is that if...

    3DHS and ExtremeFlightRC to merge?

    Sleepy, if you have so much experience and contacts....why do you need to post to a public forum to try to see if it's rumor or not? Is it GiantScaleNews.com or GiantScaleNotQuiteSure.com?

    3DHS Yak 55 91" - vibration issue

    I have a DA60 on mine and don't see any excessive vibration. A few questions: 1. Are your props balanced? 2. What stab is "wagging" (you didn't specify clearly) 3. Is the wagging causing the corresponding control surface to jitter? 4. Is the entire stab wagging or just the control surface? 5...

    In Stock! Premier Aircraft Ventique 60e ARF 3D Electric Plane Kit (FPM1000)

    That's pretty much typical. (not sure if that battery/motor combination is worth all of those exclamation marks) But...I'm all for anyone to be excited about an RC airplane!

    There's always the 3D Hobby Shop podcast, but that's obviously mostly related to 3DHS planes. There is often technical information in there as well...and I try to make it funny here and there. Also look through the old episodes of ATTF if you haven't already. It was mostly plane stuff for the...
