    Yippee! What the postman brought

    So here the PAU Ulitmate 120 set one servo , suggest minimum 400 oz output Remember that Areoworks plans were design when high output servo weren't available, food for thought , sometimes you have to think outside the box they have given you.

    My 120 is very much a rocket performs even stronger when i fly near to sea level . I'm just getting a smoother idle now after sixty ten minute flights. Yes the 3W and ZdZ are smoother running and the ZdZ is still more powerful than either .

    Xpress So have you flown a DA100 ? Okay then I know your into the 3D stuff and hanging off the prop and over heating your engine, that's cool if that's what you like . But just saying the 120 is as smooth as the 100 is like comparing the DA170 to be as smooth as the DA150 and is not . You...

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

    Yes the 120 isn't as smooth as the 1 and my dad old Extra would easly put up with the extra vibration . The plywood has become alot better than the stuff that was used nearly 20 years ago . Does 100's are sought after , especial the earlier one that what the DA tech's were saying .
