    Radio brownout - Lost another pair of underwear (and confidence in the plane)

    I am no expert on electronics, but I had a similar thing happen on my 91" EF Extra. Had a several seconds long "disconnect" of some sort on a 45 degree downline on flight 316, that reconnected about 3 seconds before impact. This plane was directed by a JR 921 receiver and my 11X. I could not...

    How much expo for maiden flight

    This is excellent advice. You'll probably do fine on your own, but it's always nice to have someone nearby for moral (and other types of) support. Good luck with the maiden!

    Going to VP SEF: Any Reason to Not Buy Premix?

    Exactly . The least I can find the premix around here is $6.00/qt. I'm not paying $24.00 per gallon of gas. I have a convenient place to buy non-ethanol car gas so I just do that. Bought 10 gallons a few days ago for under $3.00 per gallon. One bottle of Redline in each 5 gallon can and...

    Too old to "HUCK"?

    I think you've hit the nail on the head right here.

    Old and blurry, but still funny!

    A couple of those look like bombs went off inside them.

    Soloshot anybody? Anyone, anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

    Tom, thanks for the updates. I'm enjoying following along because I'd really like one of these when the issues get sorted out.

    PAU 120ccExtra

    I see I'm not the only one that changed out that OEM clunk line in the tail dragger tanks.

    PAU Owners Thread

    A little afternoon fun fly post tune. High was rich. We took off 1/4 turn, and it's running much better.

    Yep. Exactly what I use, silicone adhesive. Sticks well and flexible.

    The real Creatology foam has several nice attributes, one of which is its heat resistance.. So make sure whatever you buy,(if it isn't "Creative Foam") has the same qualities.

    Baffled on Baffling...

    Terry. I have given all of mine away, so I can't provide SKU numbers. However, at my local Michaels, they only had two thicknesses. One was about 1/6-3/32, and the other was about 1/4" (+/-). The larger variety is what you need. It works beautifully. Very flexible and heat resistant. If you...

    Yeah. A .22 short is cheap.

    Soloshot anybody? Anyone, anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

    Tom, I'm sure this has crossed your mind, but could you return it and tell them you want a refund since it doesn't work as advertised?

    Soloshot anybody? Anyone, anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

    I think it has possibilities Tom. Just needs some tweaking

    Soloshot anybody? Anyone, anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

    Yep. I was going to buy one, but not now. I'll sit this one out til we're well past "A" model issues.

    A couple of questions on servos

    Whoops.... And I may have butted in where I shouldn't. Apologies if that's the case.
