    Which prop for DA-50

    On the 50, I liked the 22x8, and 23x8. If Falcon had been around when I flew with the 50, I probably would have used the Carbon Fiber 23x9

    There are many more. We are just waiting on Sleepy: he can only do so much each of his very long work days.

    Modifying / Detailing an ARF for Fun Scale or Pro Am in Scale masters.

    This Green ARF I flew for about 3 years was stripped, recovered with fabric, painted and detailed for Top Gun this year: it finished 4th in Unlimited. It has been a steep learning curve to see what was involved! Most of the detailing was done by Steve Warltier, and Curtis Switzer was the...

    I need to make a call!

    That's easy: it's way cheaper than a 200, light, magnesium, which you also need. But you'll make the sacrifice!

    How big before multiple servos on a control?

    His batteries have to be in the tail; needs the rest of the plane to fill with smoke oil!

    Free Style Association?

    Thanks. They both look pretty mild. A free style association may get some traction: I have heard many comments that the cost of competing in IMAC is a big factor in the dwindling (or at least not increasing) number of competitors. Free style is predominantly done with ARFs, and 100cc...

    Free Style Association?

    Lately, we have received a number of requests and comments about the formation of an actual Free Style Association to organize free style competitions around the country, and I thought this would be a good place to get feed back on this idea. Right now, there are only a few premier free...

    How big before multiple servos on a control?

    With servos now easily available with 500oz torque and above, this is the far from the weakest point in the chain of surface control. Hard to believe that when the JR 8411 first came out, the TOC guys flew 40% airplanes with just 150oz servos, and they were thrilled to have that! In addition...
