    3dhs 41" Edge

    I tried various motors in my 41 before I finally got the Omega 72g and I can say this: Don't bother experimenting with other motors. Either the plane was a pain to balance or they weren't powerful enough. Or sometimes both.

    3DHS 58" Edge 540

    Roughly neutral on the wing tube works fine for me. The repairs are progressing well. It will fly again in a week or so. Need to order a new motor.

    3DHS 58" Edge 540

    Does anyone know what covering to use for the yellow Edge? Ultracote Bright Yellow, I assume, but I want to be sure before I order a roll.

    72" Extra 330SC

    Today I got tired of breaking in my engine and did some light 3D flying. This thing locks into a hover like I can't believe! I think it's partly because this is the biggest plane I own, but it's really a huge difference from anything I've flown before. This is going to be great! Of course I...

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    I'm a mild mannered man for the most part, but sometimes... I mean.. Seriously! So I had a catastrophic motor failure in one of my planes today when I was harriering about 6' off the ground. Not much to do except trying to make the crash as light as possible. You don't fly out of a situation...
