    yep - that's why I don't order small stuff from them...now if they were to ship an airframe, I think the cost is more reasonable...but that shipping cost...just can't do it...there are plenty of others out there who can ship for more fair prices. still, props are always going to be a little...

    Wow you really are color blind! red vs. orange! Yup... But I hear we can now get glasses to help but they are super expensive.

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    I would think that having covering on hand like that for repairs would be very cost prohibitve for them...?

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    No - I bet that new printing process is a closely guarded trade secret! The video sound track was in fact, credited to Chris Hinson, and IMHO was very well done.

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    After watching the interview with Chris, Ben, Noll, and JTG, I'm a little more optimistic about the merger. Their new covering techniques and the strengthening of the airframes with strategic carbon fiber look very promising. The new color schemes could really improve the EF line...if there...

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    I'm concerned that adding the additional product lines might impact their ability to have enough stock of their 3D airframes...a chronic problem. I have airframes from both of these manufacturers and they are some of the best I have...but other companies are quickly gaining on them in terms of...

    Obstacle avoidance: That is a great question. Yes! Lily maintains the same relative altitude from the user. Currently, Lily does not have any obstacle avoidance capabilities (cost and design choice). We have found that most outdoor activities do not need obstacle avoidance because Lily can...

    No - that was one question I did notice...this version does not have obstacle avoidance...the mfr declared that they did not add it to keep the price down. for most flying applications, I think that would be okay. Also, I'm not sure if the $499 is the full price or just the pre-order deposit...

    I'm having a similar dream - Saturday is supposed to be decent...30% chance of rain...I'm hoping we're in the 70% that does not get rain! Sunday is Mothers Day...you can't fly on Mothers Day if your mom is in the next town, can you? should you? ;) :flyer:

    RX Switch

    I have used the Wolverine switch in my two 50cc airframes. I just purchased a Booma Pin Flag with battery sharing from RedWingRC which should perform the same functions, has a nice handy pin flag, and is $45 instead of $65. RedWingRC also has power boards that handle the battery sharing and...
