    Nice, clean and forward install you got going. Boast's "reliability" :attaboy:. Can you tell us about those really long antennae leads? Does not just the last inch or so actually do the signal reception / Telem transmit ?

    Will be working on this as soon as it gets to the door in a couple of days. Who needs another engine to work on when the one you got works perfectly fine for a plane that won't get flown much anyway o_O. I thought my 6S fever was gone but it's a CAP 232 EX !!! My "Foam Hanger" is EX-panding :ooh?:.

    LoL nether did I Rob.......But I did get it fixed up for him. Don't think it can take another "Punch in the nose" and be ready for round 6 :concern:. It will still "float like a butterfly" but the sting like a bee ??? :beaten: .

    Installed a new carby and did a reed mod to my buddies DLE 35RA on his Demonstrator. It cleaned up the bottom end "burble" and transitions smooth as silk now. He said he "LIKEY" :). He "LIKEY" so much he is going to "Let me" fix his QQ300 o_O.

    Being I'm no longer a "Purist" or if that I really ever was (lol) could you try to get that wingstabi dialed up for just some fun? I have seen these units hover and torque roll a plane hands off completely! Yea I know....but at my age I need all the "fun" help I can get these days :). Not only...

    Made it out yesterday with the QQ300 and 26cc Edge and the Alien. Had a great time. New hinges on the Edge made a world of difference. Need to get busy swapping engines on the Alien but darn that DL50 keeps me hesitant. It flies the Alien very good :)

    They were the stock pin hinges that came with the plane. Way to small for a gasser. I drilled all 5 out and used Robart 301's. Wing will explode before those Robarts break. Left wing panel seems ok but I will do the same to it sometime soon. Got to go fly it tomorrow first :).

    Got to working on the right wing panel of the Edge. Sure am glad I use 3M Blenderm tape to seal hinge gaps because it saved the plane from a horrible fait :ooh?:. 4 of 5 hinges let go o_O

    NGH Four Cycle Engines.

    Yep. Got the V2 "GTS". I will be getting the 38 very soon too from AGAPE. Heard really good things about the 72. I went over mine and oiled it up well. Cold compression was extremely strong and engine super tight on the cylinder/piston fit. Wont mount it till July or August when my Pilot Fuse...

    The SRXL port is an output connection for all 8 channels of that Rx. One example of use would be to connect the SRXL port of the Rx to the B port of an Aura 8 flight controller using just one double female pin connector "JST" cable. The XBUS port can do the same thing but you would need a...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Started fixing up the Edge. Got the canopy hatch re done like a real gasser and not that blasted latch that hangs up and fails. Did not have any 3mm blind nuts so I "encapsulated" a plated 3mm hex nut. Worked great. Going to re hinge the ailerons next.
