    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    I'm55 minutes away from New York City, but my town only has two stoplights. There's got to be at least half a redneck point for that! :) And it sounds like you have to do something about your lack of groomed runways. How about start the preparations to attend one of the FLIs? I guess the...

    3d sbach homemade

    I've got the power system and servos from an Airfoilz that I crashed recently. This may be a fun project to use those parts for. I'll watch the videos more carefully when I'm done celebrating new year's eve. :) Thanks again for sharing!

    Before I get too boozed up on Champagne, I want to say this: Happy New Year to all the members of 3DRCForums and everyone else in this wonderful hobby. It's been a great year for me and I've learned a lot this year. I'm still very far from being an accomplished 3D pilot, but I'm getting there...

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    Believe it or not, but we have our share of hillbillies where I come from too. Northern Sweden is full of people who care about moonshine, moonshine, moonshine, snowmobiles, moonshine, guns, moonshine and moonshine (in that order). The only big difference is that politically the Swedish...

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    Wow! You painted me quite a picture there! I've only lived in this beautiful country for 12 years, but if there's one thing I've learned it's that if a guy from West Virginia says something is in the middle of nowhere, he's not kidding. :) I can only imagine what the teeth-per-person ratio...

    Gyro already moved this to the correct thread. I wouldn't say I'm a Rush fan, but I've always been a fan of the progressive rock (or whatever label you want to put on it) sound. I'm actually classically schooled (went to a high-school for musically talented children) and I find a lot of the same...

    There will definitely be snow. So if you're thinking of a long drive to avoid the snow, it's not going to be worth it.

    And by the way, both my clubs are doing freeze-flies. I'll probably go to GCA, though. (Just watching the news now. They say snow and wind for Tuesday.... Hmmm...)

    It looks cold and slightly windy, but I'm probably going to be crazy enough to go out there anyway. Just to hang out with the guys and may throw something in the air. I wonder if I can make skis for my Sabre X.... :) Are you thinking of going?

    A spotify-generated mix of Rush hits, a glass of wine and an airplane to build. Yup. That works just fine! EDIT: Oops! Wrong thread! :)

    Leopard Hobbies 5055 720kv

    I just received one of these motors from Altitude Hobbies. First impressions are very good and I have to say the packaging and design looks ...uhm... sexy. I'm planning on pulling it apart to see how it's built before I stick it in my 3DHS Edge 58". We'll post a official review once we've had...

    What's in a name?

    OK, this one made me chuckle, but Gyro tells me I have a weird sense of humor. Anyway, I don't think this Taiwanese maker of knock-off receivers was awake during the class on American idioms: http://www.lemon-rx.com/shop/ Would you put a lemon receiver in your plane? :tongue:

    How many years have you been in the hobby?

    I actually find the Nashville women very, hmm... distracting! :)

    How many years have you been in the hobby?

    I've been in the hobby for about 2 years now. It started when I saw a HobbyZone SuperCub in the window of a hobby store and bought it on a whim. I then promptly put it 80ft up a tree, but luckily it blew down after a few days. Then I went on to crash it into small foam pellets. Over and over...
