    950!!

    Yep, I know you were kidding in a good natured way. I guess I missed the runway expansion and other changes. What time tomorrow?

    950!!

    Not quite. I have been flying the gas planes this summer, just not as much as I would like and not out at Nampa due to the noise issues with my big plane. I just replaced the prop on my 104 yesterday, so it should be a lot quieter now.

    Planewrapper

    I guess i am boring, but I ordered two silver ones for my plane. I planned on doing this months ago, but I got a kick in the pants a few weeks ago when the sun warped my pilot and the cockpit in my 104 Extra. Oh well it adds character.

    950!!

    It's all fun and games... until you see MY engine take off and hover at the end of the runway.

    Snapasaurus - The Facts.

    Physicists at MIT and other institutions have been trying in vain detect "dark energy". This is the mysterious force that keeps the universe expanding and prevents gravity from pulling everything into giant black hole. We here at GSN know beyond a doubt that that force is in fact Snapasaurus.

    Eflite Power 160 setups

    I used to follow the EF 78 Extra thread over at RC groups. I know a lot of guys there are using that motor there. Its a similar sized plane so I would guess that is a good plane to start. I hope this helps.

    Good prop drill bit

    Thanks guys, I am on my way shortly to a local Tacoma Screw store. They don't have any carbide bits but they do have the high temp treated ones. I will pick up a couple and test them out on a damaged prop I have from one of my smaller planes. I don't want find out they don't work well with a...

    Good prop drill bit

    I went to my drill press to drill out my new 29x10 Mej prop and the darn bit is bent. I forgot that my spare is also broken in a previous mishap. What is a good source for 5mm bits for drilling the props. What type of bit would be best? Thanks.

    let us talk about fuel tank clunks....

    I really like the clunk that comes with the PSP kit. The tubing hitting the side of the tank instead of the clunk is brilliant especially with the thinner Fuji tanks. Instead of a filter at the clunk, I use an inline filter just between the tank and the carb.

    The sad part is the guy that wasn't flying won't even get it.

    Which Radio System Is Best?

    I am not really interested in the voting. I used Futaba from back in the AM days through the transition to FM. I had a radio in for service for 4 months once and that motivated me to look at the Spectrum products when I upgraded to 2.4. I have a DX18 and no issues. If I had unlimited money I...

    Best RC Simulator??

    I am thinking about the add. Maybe an add for a fictitious company in a very satirical and sarcastic way that mocks a certain person. Hmmm. :devil: I do love poking the bear. But then I just spent two weeks outside of Yellowstone/ Teton National Park.

    Custom 3DHS Extra 330SC

    Sorry about the plane. I absolutely love the detail in that engine compartment. I was also fooled that it was a 120. It was only after trying to figure out your baffles that it was clear to me. The reflective silver mono coat was a brilliant idea.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Wow, open a thread about "going out flying" and read about this radio is better than that. Get back to work...er um I mean flying. :cocksure:

    Is this the first GSN Themed Plane?

    I just received the graphics for my replacement Laser today. I ordered it the exact same as I did the previous plane with one exception. I got two nice sized GSN logos. I also have one more post I need to make on the "other" site. A good pic of this plane once it is done with good view of my...
