    Broke a spinner? I've never ever broken a spinner unless I've smashed it into the ground in a crash! Flown lots of the EF spinners. Are you perhaps overtightening them? The prop bolts don't require much torque, and neither do spinner bolts. Get the prop bolt snug, and perhaps another 1/8 turn is...

    AJ Aircraft 73 Laser 230z

    Forgot to mention, on the 56" one the quality of all the parts is great. Looks extremely similar to a 51" AJ Slick from 3dhs, but the wheel pants are better, the landing gear is noticeably thicker and stronger, and quality of everything is fantastic. Great job! Hoping to finish it up tonight and...

    AJ Aircraft 73 Laser 230z

    I'm working on assembling a 56" Laser right now, but have all the gear for a 35cc plane. Been wondering what to put it in, and the 73 may just be it. But the fuse is so unbelievably tall on it that I have a hard time with the looks of the 73. The 56" one doesn't look so funny, but I saw one of...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    To do it right I would need to debond the entire sides/bottom/firewall and build new ones as the current ones are pretty bad, at least forward of the last former. I would never get the slots cut that perfect for all the interlocking bits. And frankly I don't have the time for it either... with...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    I'm with you Ole on the break in... I did three tanks buzzing around at 1/3 throttle. Took FOREVER. I literally sat down on the grass and just flew circles. I finally couldn't stand it on the 4th tank and just started having fun. After about a gallon my rpm's quit increasing, and I suppose this...

    How to win a Fly-in Raffle?

    I'm usually in the can't win a thing bucket, no matter how many tickets I but. But at the 3d bash in Kennett, Missouri this last weekend I won a Redwing 30cc Extra! Maybe my luck is changing!

    Kennett Missouri 3D Bash

    Lots of prizes for sure. I took home a 30cc Redwing plane from the raffle, which made the loss of my beloved (and short lived) EF 76" MXS a bit more bearable. Thanks Redwing! And thanks to the Kennett RC club for putting on the event. I'll be back next year!

    Knife edge spin.

    You can read the "performance aircraft unlimited" on the wings, and so looking at the site, it appears to be this one: http://flypau.com/5060cc-c-1_4/edge-540t-50-to-60cc-p-10.html

    JR 9503, radio set up for a servo on each aileron

    also, if you had a 9503 and are simply moving to a new 9503, you could just copy all the models over via a trainer cable. The transfer function does this. Pretty easy to use, and then you just have to rebind. All settings, trims, subtrims and mixes will be copied to the new radio.

    3D EF 83 MXS Thread

    On mine I just took the template for the DLE-35, and used the bottom two holes. They were the same width as the DA-35, then flipped the template and marked the same two holes for the top. On the dle-35 the bottom two are the same spacing as for a da-35, but the top two are 5mm narrower. So just...
