    FAA 2014-0396- interpretation of new rule for Model Aircraft

    I would believe it based on the wording of the comments...very well done, clear and concise, providing specific suggestions for changes in the wording instead of "I don't like this opinion".

    By ibef do you mean an opto kill?

    Redwing 30cc Yak55 Buid Log

    I'm not denying that...I'm simply stating that the diagram that comes with the rcexl opto kill switch shows that it supports a single battery setup and so does my 2.5 years of experience with that configuration...but I'm using Airtronics equipment which is perhaps the difference?

    Funny that's not what the diagram shows nor my experience.

    Redwing 30cc Yak55 Buid Log

    Herb, first of all, the build looks awesome. Did you flip your carb? I seem to remember on my DLE-35RA that the mixture screws are on the other site, but perhaps I'm getting confused with my DLE-55RA? Regarding the IBEC, I'm confused...are you talking about a regular ignition kill switch...

    Humberto that was quite fun to watch! I've flown in high winds like that and I have one question for you: ....... How do you keep your hat on your head?!!!

    Yeah, it does appear to be a clean break, which usually makes the repair easier. I bet that was an awesome crankshaft to see! I don't suppose you got it on video?! :D I'll never forget the time I had an old glow engine biplane that was flying great until a servo mount broke loose and I had to...

    3DHS 70" Velox

    I think a 50cc Velox would be a huge selller! I've not owned a Velox simply because the current one is a bit too small for gas, and I've already got enough electric planes in that size. I know some people have put 20cc and even 30cc motors on the Velox, but I'd rather have a bit bigger version...

    3DHS 70" Velox

    I had a similar issue with a Scorpion motor on my 65" Vyper...magic smoke, too hot, magnets came loose and started rubbing. Put in venting scoops, got a Motrolfly motor, and this has one of my best performing planes for the last two years. Sorry it cost you a toasted motor to figure out the...

    Saw this ad on the classifieds on FG...thought it was worth re-posting here. :) Good be a great opportunity for someone, especially those that are not close and are looking for a "will ship" deal! http://www.GiantScaleNews.com/swapshop/showproduct.php?product=48002&title=sweet-combo-deal&cat=2...

    Redwing 89" Extra 330SC

    Gary have you had a chance to CG the plane yet? I'm wondering where you ended up putting all your components to get a good CG.
