    Looking at a 60" class plane

    FWIW, the only plane I've flown (and currently own) in that list is the 58" 3DHS Edge. I'm very happy with that plane. It's extremely easy to fly. Harriers are perfectly stable "hands off". I recently flew Gyro's Edge in 20mph winds and it just sits there in the wind harriering. At the same...

    3DHS New Products and General Plane Info/Help for Fanatics

    Nobody said to buy a Hacker. Check out the FirePower. They are very well built motors and dirt cheap. Plus the fact that HURC is a US vendor with awesome shipping cost and speed and an owner who stands behind his products. I don't have any strong feelings about HK. I use them occasionally, but...

    3DHS New Products and General Plane Info/Help for Fanatics

    I have a Firepower 46 in my 19% Pilot Yak and its one sturdy little motor! If the 60 is anything like it, it will be great!

    I think I read somewhere (most likely on this site) that Joe managed to get into a KE spin he couldn't power out of. My KE spin exits usually consist of gunning the throttle and pulling some random direction of the sticks and most of the time it ends up flying out of it... :)

    Flying your 70" Slick knife edge definitely put a smile on my face. You've got a well trimmed aircraft there. I literally took the right hand off the radio and just held a little bit of rudder and the thing was tracking like an arrow. And yes, flying someone else's plane on 20mph at a field...

    What an amazing day I had! I'm in Austin for business this week and I decided to get here a day early and spend the Sunday with Gary down in San Antonio. I had a lot of fun flying Gary's 58" Edge, 70" Slick and 89" Slick. Gary witnessed my heart stop for a little while when I put his...

    Re: ** The 3DRCForums 38! ** In conjunction with the NJ FLI, July 11-14th Gary, you're a force of nature! You call me as I step on to a flight and tell me this is an idea you're tossing around. When I land a couple of hours later it's all done. It's a good thing you're not using your powers for...

    I was flipping burgers during my high school years. Not the must lucrative or fashionable job, but it was sure nice to have some money of my own. There's always a way to make a few bucks if one is willing to go outside one's comfort zone. And now I sound like one of those grownups I used to...

    Oh, they're doing the WRAM in Seacaucus this year? Awesome! That's an easy 45 minute drive from my home.

    Should we create an 3D competition in the 50" to 74" Class?

    I vote for having it in connection with a FLI! Either way I like the idea. Especially if we can host it in the tristate area... :)
