    72" Extra 330SC

    Great video, Zach! That was last weekend, right? It was WICKED gusty, so I'm impressed you were able to keep the rollers to low and tight! Looking forward to seeing you compete next season!

    72" Extra 330SC

    A little weak. The only way it would possibly work is if you run them on unregulated 2s LiPos. I have Align DS610 (same as Savox 1258TG) in mine. A little bit more expensive, but much more powerful and ridiculously fast. I'm sure the 5665s will work and the plane will fly OK, but keep in mind...

    TwistedHobbys Crack Turbo Beaver

    Introduction Playful 3D interpretations of classic high-wing models seems to be all the rage this year and the Crack Turbo Beaver is TwistedHobbys' take on the theme. You realize that you're looking at a mix of old and new when you see the classic Cub-style airframe combined with high-tech fins...

    Mine lasted for 5-10 flights as well. I replaced a couple and then gave up. Too bad, because it looks so much better with pants!

    2014 3DRCForums 3D Freestyle Competition

    I agree with you Dan. I think we're all on the same page that it should be held in connection with an event for a number of reasons. It's also easier to attract spectators to a fly-in combined with a contest than just a contest.

    3DHS 87" Extra 300 SHP

    I saw it with my own eyes and it was pretty impressive. Every single former was loose and/or cracked. No external damage, so I doubt it was from wing dragging or anything like that.

    That, young man, was a flight with a supertanker load of attitude! Absolutely loved it!!!! At the 5:09 mark you did a pretty gutsy move! :) Can't wait to see you rip it up in NJ again next season!

    Yeah... My inverted harrier turns suck, so that's probably where I should start! :)

    Funnel hovers

    I'm struggling with funnel hovers. They look really easy, but I'm having problems finding the sweet spot where the plane sits at the same altitude or slowly ascends. What usually happens is that I over compensate with the ailerons (I think) after a few turns and the plane flips over inverted and...
