    Would like to get up with you at the Nall and personally thank you for your help with my engine. It's running like a champ.

    Joe Nall Week 2016, May 7-14

    I'm only 2 hrs from Triple Tree. I'm there every year even though I have never flown there, I still love it. I dig the 3D line. Here is a pic of me there last year.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Awesome 0061. I have a small Sukhoi like yours I fly for kicks here at the house. Loads of fun. Here is one I'm going to get this 13" Pitts for the same purpose by Eflite. A guy at the club was flying this one. Everytime I fly here at the house with a small electric the sky is full of small...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Sorry BJ. Not for sale. One of my favorites to fly. I have a sweet setup in it with Savox all around, Fromeco v reg, 4titude tank, aluminum arms, ball joints all the way around, Zoar laminated, Smart Fly super switches, dual Thunder Power lipos, and taildraggerrc extensions. She flys perfect...

    If I see someone starts a plane at my club just holding it, you will find me 200ft away.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I went Sunday. Just a slight crosswind from the west. No big deal. Got in 6 flights until light rain set in 1 hour before dark. Took my old Funtana X 100 23cc. Had a blast.

    New servo has anyone any experience with this servo

    Rick you say heli guys are flying these. I might go to helifreak.com and find someone there flying these. See what they say about them. I'm a heli guy and member there. The hardcore 3d heli guys are brutal on servos.

    Starting Your Plane by Yourself, 60ccc or Larger

    I do see one problem with this method. You said that you have made the mistake of starting an engine at full throttle. Ok, first of all your plane is not restrained and you loose your balance stepping away from the tail. It happens. Now you have a plane in the pits out of control.

    piston ring replacement

    Thanx 49. I knew I need to clear out the ring groove. I mentioned that. I read where another JC 23 owner installed a Bowman in his and it woke the engine up. When I received this engine new, I was disappointed by the fact that it had almost had no compression. After 3 gallons it has gained a...

    piston ring replacement

    I'm getting ready to replace the piston ring in my JC 23 with a Bowman ring which I got lucky to find because it is possibly the last Bowman on earth for this low compression engine being Mr. Bowman recently retired. I already know that I have to make sure the ring gap has to be clean. Should I...

    PAU Owners Thread

    Tseres, Please tell me you have a video of this bird flying. I have been waiting for one to be posted. When you say it has become your favorite plane I guess I can assume it flys with the same stability as the larger PAUs. This plane needs to be in my hangar!!!!

    PAU Owners Thread

    I've had my eye on the 35cc Edge Herve is getting ready to offer at the end of this month and I catch wind of a 35cc Extra that will also be available. I have watched the Edge being flown at the website. I want to watch the Extra fly. It will most likely be my next plane with a VVRC 40 twin...
