    3D Fibertech Hyperlite Slick.....sort of build thread.

    Nice Terry !!! In a few days I should be able to link some video of my Slick lined up with a 126 inch Carden 260 with an mvvs 190, and a 35% Pilot Edge with a Mintor 110 doing a vertical drag race . My Slick won first run. The Edge won the second run. Poor Trevor and his MVVS 190...

    Jeti DS-16 Talk, ideas and help

    I was the same. DX7, 9303, 11x, DX18. Then a buddy got the Jeti DS-16. I got to play with it and fly with it. No Brainer for me. Then I really lucked out. A local heli guy had 2 of them. He listed his back up radio with 2 - 9 channel receivers for sale at a steal of a price. I...

    Carbon Build Up

    They grey of the cylinder heads has some reflective properties. An IR gun wont read an accurate Temp. You would need to paint a spot flat black to get an accurate read.

    DA-70 and Plane Bender Smooth Pipes

    Forgot to mention...... Since I had now cut the headers down to 6 and 5/8 inches. I tried the 25x8 wide at shorter lengths. But the rpm's dropped off quickly. 25x8W : 7530 @ 8.5 inch 7500 @ 8 inch 7380 @ 7.5 inch

    DA-70 and Plane Bender Smooth Pipes

    Ok..... Had the chance to play with the motor some more. I tried a Beila 22x12 3-blade. Quite a high load prop. Using the same 8.5 inch header length as the 25x8W, the Beila 3 blade gave me 5940 rpm. Then I tried it with the stock mufflers. Turned 6000. Going back and looking at...

    I was planning to build an EMHW 2.15 m ultimate. Do some mild lightening.. but Vogelsang isn't replying to my enquiries as to stock. Not sure if that will materialize or not. In the mean time, I have picked up the remains of 2 crashed 3DHS 103 inch Extra 330sc. I ordered a new...

    DA-70 and Plane Bender Smooth Pipes

    I picked up the motor second hand. When I called DA to order the MTW headers. Tony ran the serial number and said the reed update had not been done on this particular motor. so he sent me a new set with the headers. When I opened the reed block, one reed petal had some feathering and a...

    DA-70 and Plane Bender Smooth Pipes

    Hi Dave, Yeah...... I will go shorter LOL But I don't think the motor needs more power at this point. The added power comes at a price. At 7500 on the ground. It will unload another 1000 in the air. I would like Desert Aircraft to chime in here. Can the motor withstand...
