    Basic engine tuning.

    So I changed back to pump gas recently and had a chance to do some actual flying yesterday. My low end is off now which is no big deal. I tuned on it a little but an approaching storm ended the day before I had it set again. I was running VP SEF which is 94 octane before and now I'm running...

    WE ALL NEED TO ACT TO SAVE THE HOBBY

    Done. I made a few minor changes to some of the wording and of course took out the parts about Florida since I'm in Texas. Dear Senator Cornyn, Thank you for your response to my concerns regarding the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reauthorization. However I do not believe your...

    WE ALL NEED TO ACT TO SAVE THE HOBBY

    This is what I got: Dear Amendment 3596: Thank you for your letter regarding the reauthorization of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). I appreciate having the benefit of your comments on this important matter. I understand your concerns regarding our nation’s aviation system...

    IMAC Build: Dalton Extra 300

    Well I didn't get anything done this weekend. I was mostly focused on work stuff including a presentation that I will hopefully be giving the new global CEO of the company I work for on Tuesday. Getting out to the field on a more regular basis will probably depend on what he thinks of what...

    Krill Extra 330 LX building thread

    The one time I had a CF spinner I bought it already cut from DA. Seems easy enough to do yourself though.

    Krill Extra 330 LX building thread

    I'm assuming you have to check the balance after cutting it?

    WE ALL NEED TO ACT TO SAVE THE HOBBY

    I agree and people need to make their voices heard. It's my view that offering a standardized letter from the AMA may not be a bad thing as writing one's opinion may be intimidating to some so it allows more voices to be heard than those that would be comfortable writing a personal letter. I...

    IMAC Build: Dalton Extra 300

    So someone in another thread mentioned that I need to get back on this and I plan to. Work is once again getting in the way... With the current limbo status of the hobby and what we will be able to do, I'm going to hold off on buying a motor and servos probably until a decision is made...

    WE ALL NEED TO ACT TO SAVE THE HOBBY

    Done. Not sure I am going to enjoy waiting until 2017 possibly to have an outcome but I'll take it. I have the Dalton 300 I'm building and I'm holding off buying a motor and servos just to see what happens.

    3D So I have a Carden Fetish.....

    Nice! I love the way Cardens look. I wish they offered some of the kits they used to carry but I understand why they only offer the PRO.

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    My fuel can is from Jersey Modeler and I've had it since 2006. It has a filter on the line from the can and then I have another filter from the tank to the carb (3 line system). I've had a jelly like substance on the screen when I was running gas with ethanol in it. My motor didn't run any...

    Airtronics Users

    I never flew an Airtronics system but I have a NIB 6 channel 72mhz set that I picked up for $25. I had at one point contemplated going to the SD-10 but didn't make the change because it was a 1024 system. And that's not to say it wouldn't have worked for me and I could feel the difference...

    Guess I should stock up on gears for my 94809 servos!

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    Yeah, I remember reading the 5-5-1 starting procedure and I don't remember what the re-starting procedure is like.

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    What motor and I'm guessing you're taking the carb to someone who can do sonic cleaning?
