    Servos, Which one and why, Competition or Weekend Warrior.

    I looked at the MKS HV777's but they wouldn't work in my application because they are very deep when compared too others.

    IMAC Delro Raven 3.1M build

    That would be great! I'm building mine pretty much stock with very few changes from Delro recommendations.

    Gas engine backfire

    I remember looking at buying this engine and some people were having this problem. I think it was a broke woodruf key. I'm sure I didn't spell that right. I would be hesitant to stick my fingers back in there until you get it looked at.

    Putting the Scale back in Scale Aerobatics

    I thought this was a great post. I think the people interested should see how much local interest there is. Like Wayne said might be surprising one way or the other. Thanks for taking the time to post this. I'm curious to see how much local interest there is also.

    IMAC Delro Raven 3.1M build

    Here are might thoughts if it will help but far from the gospel. I think a plane finished by Delro would be incredible they seem to be sticklers for detail and producing a great product. If you decide to go that way talk to Dr. Gotz at http://www.vogelsangaeroscale.com/civilian.html. My dealings...

    IMAC Delro Raven 3.1M build

    Sorry about the slow progress. I got in a wreck day after Christmas and my arm has been in a cast. My cast came off yesterday so I can get back going again. Putting my control arms on now. If a person had the time this kit would go together in a few weeks.

    Putting the Scale back in Scale Aerobatics

    Class within a class definately the way to go. Really fairly easy to implement. How much should the static scores account for total scoring?

    Putting the Scale back in Scale Aerobatics

    I think rather than getting engine displacement and wingspan restrictions involved which would just eliminate competitors a simple weight to output thrust ratio would be enough. Adjust throttle servo endpoints or whatever method is preferred to keep the thrust to not exceed 1:1.

    3D Covering???

    Thats part of the reason I'm recovering. It's far from new and there is plenty of dings to fix. You like drywall compound better than balsarite?

    Futaba Sbus ?

    Nice setup. The only difference with mine is each rx/batt has its own switch so it's like two completely independent systems. I can see pros & cons with both ways. I love the wolverine switch also.
