    3D BH Design 50% Edge 540

    If you put the 176 on it, it may fly it fine, but I really feel you are not going to like how it peforms.You will probably have to shove everything including the sink on the nose. Keep in mind, this is a big lumbering ox of an airplane. It has alot more frontal area, drag etc than you H9...

    How big before multiple servos on a control?

    Rob, you've got an XG 11. You don't need the booma stuff. Trust me. If you go to power safe Rx, you wont need the smart fly either.

    How big before multiple servos on a control?

    The servos you have installed will work fine. Dad has a Valencourt L19 with a Saito 300 GK on it. Futaba 9152s on the tail and 3152s on wings. It fly's so smooth and easy on those servos. You don't need a 400 oz servo on this airplane. All you need is a good digital servo that centers well...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    Pull the plug on your TM unit, for testing purposes. On your remotes......... Any orientation that does not follow what your Rx shows is good. I like setting 1 at a 45 on the side of the fuse, 1 at 45 on the bottom of the fuse and then 1 horizontal above the wing tube or on the fuse side...

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    I will vouch for those Glaciers, Terry. If you have a problem with a pack, give them a call and talk with either Gary or Doug. They check the balance on the cells prior to shipping on 2S 850 packs and up. I don't know of any other company that does, unless it is/was a custom built pack that I...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    First, check against another model. If the problem persists, then you may have found your problem. It is probably the rudder pot in the radio. If the problem does not follow to the next airplane, then you have some troubleshooting to do. Possible servo, Rx, match box etc........ It could...

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    I just started flying their 2S 450s on my foamies. Blow those crap ass nano techs out of the water. I also use the 6S 5000s in a 12S 700 machine and in a 6S jet.

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    I chose lipo simply because of my prior experience with them. 1 of the first in the Ohio area to use lipo in electric powered aircraft. Been using them for almost 15 years. I remember well, the 3c discharge rate 1080 mA packs. Had to charge them at 1C rate. It was nothing for a 7 minute...

    JR 921 receivers

    Ive flown dsmx rx on dsm2 TX and vise versa. No issues. The radio detects 2 or x itself. There is NO user setting in the Tx. You must have minimum 1 remote ant plugged into the rx. If you unplug that remote rx and reinstall to another port, you must rebind. A good battery should be used...

    3DHS and ExtremeFlightRC to merge?

    If I were Hinson, I wouldn't allow it. Sure, 3DHS brings alot of airplanes out, but when EF brings 1 out, you gotta wait to get one. Can't say that that is a bad thing or not. Or would that just be the man wanting the best product out there without sacrificing quality?

    Lipo Rx Pack

    Glacier 3600s have Deans. So do their 5000's. :) I've been overly pleased with their 3600's. 3600's are all I use.

    Brian will not let you down with his advice. Even after 25 years in this wonderful hobby, I still look to others for advice.

    3W Ignition timing manual

    I can take a pic of my 106 with the IIS ignition and hall sensor location, if that helps. I want to say that the green magnet should be 1/2 under the hall sensor at TDC...... Ahhhh, I will post a few pics anyways.
