    My mate in the 70" EG yak has gone to that IBEC as well Joe and its sweet as. No feedback issues to servos and duel LiFePo packs for Rx. He is running 2 x 2s1400 LiFePo packs and gets about 8 flights without issue out of them. Supposedly they have flatter discharge then a lipo but having...

    Mate, thats the IBEC I plan to go with, its the Tech Aero Ultra which is the one IBEC that never seems to get complaints. Now Park- the reason for Lipo or LiFe is the volts, 7.4V which the HV servos are designed for. faster and stronger. The interesting statement about lipos catching fire in a...

    Nice one Joe. Sounds like its really running plenty of rpm. Have you put a tacho on it yet? What's your take on the lipos for Rx. I'm thinking through my setup for the 91" now and DA Aus really push back hard about using lipos for Rx and IBEC setups. But that would have to be about...

    I'm sure the eme35 will rock. I got a fly on a dle35 yesterday on stock muffler and wood 20x8 prop and it's pretty potent. Spool up is a little slower then 19x8 but vertical is still unlimited and hovers pretty sweet. I just gotta get my mate to set up some proper high rates to really...

    Hey Feral, I wish it was 64,000 of us but DA Aus tell me part of the problem is that most of the Giant Scale they sell goes into Imac. And the perception is that Edges just don't IMAC as good as Extra's and Yak54's. So poor old DA Aus have a warehouse full of old versions of the Edge they want...

    I have some planes with the flaperons mixed in but not for landing. I have the ailerons set to the same direction as the elevators but only 50% throw. Does some amazing aerobatics with the flaperons turned on, waterfalls almost inside itself . Word of caution though, if you set them up...

    I can't help with the dx8 buddy. I'm a futaba guy and every radio is different. Take a look to see if its got a menu for rudder-elevator and rudder-aileron? Otherwise you will need to create manual programming making rudder the master and elevator or aileron the slave. But doing it...

    Sounds great. Count me in. Now if I can just get the damn MAAA to issue my Bronze wings to allow me to visit other clubs. You would think 5 months was long enough to process these things wouldn't you?

    Twisted Hobbys - TELINK 48" EPP Extra 330 SC

    That's sweet Joe. Gotta get me one of these. Which motor did you end up going with? I have a spare Omega 72g and Omega 103g motor here that I'm thinking about but not sure which one would be better for this plane. Never found the right airframe for the smaller Omega. At only 1100kv it...
