    To drain or not?

    Anyone with a classic car in the garage....the problem is the battery. I use good fuel without ethanol. I use good 2 stroke oil in it. I leave the tank with whatever is left over from the last flight.

    Can you believe this guy?

    Very good point. I have always considered it my plane, my risk. It just seems the natural result of the enevitable problem with trying to place blame on one pilot over another.

    H9/Carden or PAU Extra

    It didn't happen unless you post picture here.

    Can you believe this guy?

    What's interesting is that when someone posts a personal beef with someone else on the internet especially in multiple places, they are usually don't get the sympathy they were expecting.

    Joe Nall 2016 = QUIET!!!

    Sorry, I knew it was a joke.

    Joe Nall 2016 = QUIET!!!

    I get the sarcasm and agree with the sentiment, but having the Government force Pat or TT to put up with with noise??? I think those on the forum here should come up with suggested rule changes that will solve this and other problems at Nall. I would bet they would appreciate the input from the...

    Interesting crash view

    Very cool, I think I even saw a shark circling the plane.

    The rumors are TRUE!!

    Wow, this is very interesting news. I do hope that the new company can keep up the top notch design, build and support that kept me a happy customer.

    Telemetry Usefullness

    yea, stuck up on the mountain most weekends. I have also been busy as heck the last month or two with work. On the upside, I have been working on my heli fleet. I have a Goblin 570 that is ready to maiden as soon as the damn weather improves.

    Telemetry Usefullness

    The iPhone based telemetry is a joke. The Tm1000 connected to a compatible receiver paired to the newer radios works quite well. I can monitor engine temperatures and voltage from any distance I can still see my 104" extra. The full size unit from Spectrum is only 55 bucks. It should work with...

    Is there any 50cc KITS that can do 3D??

    If you can even find a kit in the 50cc size it will likely be an old design and cost nearly twice to build what it would cost to build an ARF. That is precisely why you can't really find them today. One option in a kit that I have been considering myself that would also fly basic aerobatics...

    Real Flight 7.5...

    So as I understand it, if we are flying a plane that we download that nobody else has installed, it will show up as boring generic small plane that well.... looks stupid. :( Perhaps we could put together a master list of planes that GSN pilots use. The name of the plane and perhaps a link to...

    dle 30 or eme 35

    Cool, then it sounds like you are doing the same thing I considered, using this plane in place of my smaller glow to kick around at the field. I know that Chief offers this with the DLE35 rear entry. I would bet that would also be a good choice. I have not seen this plane in person, I was a...

    dle 30 or eme 35

    Do you plan on moving this engine to another airframe in the future? I ask because it is very common for these engines to outlive the airframes even without a crash. If you are, consider a 35 instead or even a Twin 40. I think that size would work better if you eventually moved it to an Extra or...

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    At one of the fields I sometimes fly at, immediately opon landing an old guy who sorta-flies a hobby king foamy would race over and yell at the pilot for taxing into the pits. Very cool video, I think that would be really cool to put into the Dalotel. And yes it needs to taxi at the end so you...

    Are those stock planes with 7.5 or from the swap pages?

    Real Flight 7.5...

    I have a couple of planes that I have downloaded, but so far I am not impressed with how real they fly on 7.5. What planes are you guys using for 3D? and what are you modifying?

    ARF shelf life?

    I don't recall anyone suggesting 72mhz was a crime. It certainly still works today as well as it did years ago. My point was that if the OP is getting back into RC after a five year absence, they "consider" upgrading electronics first if they have the older stuff. I think this makes even more...

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    Here you go. As I said before, I had to use some epoxy filler on the boom. I filled it in to take up the space when using the bolt that comes with the J&J tailwheel. Alternatively a bushing could be fitted to take up the same space.
