    Pilot 40% 330 Recover and Build

    Sorry to hear that David. I have had two friends come down with that and miserable does not even begin to describe the agony they went through. I hope I never have to face it myself. Hope your feeling better.

    Help! Anyone own the 104" AJ Slick?

Even if it is recessed in a bit more than the left side I think it would still be awesome looking :yesss:. I used to expose Saito valve covers and had the same issue but it did turn out looking...

    :big_yes:It was :). Got 2 flights on each plane before the late afternoon T-storms. QQ300 and Cap232ex where both a hoot. Rock Star flew solid too. Cap is becoming my favorite :big-grin:. Had the field all to my lonesome :ooh?:.

    Me too @AKNick . As in I hate to see that for ya. Those Edges along with the 35RA are pretty awesome combos but I know you aint feeling awesome right now. Hate to admit it but when you said "Punch him in his happy face" made me giggle :black-eye: . So the "Happy Camper" (NOT) and bush pilot...

    Good looking bipe. I bet it would be a great flyer with the right wing loading. Love the scalloped paint / covering job too :In_love:. Red and white are my favorite colors for planes such as those.

    Looks like you will be done before I get my fuse in. Talked to Chief couple days ago who talked to Tony and I had to give serial number off my wing to determine correct fuse. Did not know there was a V1 and V2 fuse of the V2 330 o_O. I'm looking at September now :(. :) Good news is we will have...

    Help! Anyone own the 104" AJ Slick?

    Just my two pennies worth........ That plane really calls for strong 120 class motor if it is going to be flown 3D. 111 will get it done and the 140 four stroke too but the four stroke just does not have the throttle response and the 111 is a bit weak compared to a 120. Flying it "precision"...

    That's what I do too. Only difference is I install the servo screws then remove servo/screws and add a few drops of thin ca to the holes.
