    Da100L 3blade setup

    I had one (25x12 3B Mejzlik) on a 3W 106. Pulled really well! Also used a MenzS 24x10 3 blade on a 3W 78 twin. With the 3 blade on the 78 twin, I couldn't keep it from tork rolling, holding full right aileron, and still torkin hard left!

    3D Rebuilding the Compy MX2.

    Gotcha covered man! :) Aircraft International has those can mounts for the PeFa's. I don't recall the can number. They may be a L or XL. Well, L/80 or L/80K. The "K" is bigger in diameter vs the "non K". If the canister BODY length NOT INCLUDING inlet is around 15" long, then you have...

    I believe those cans are PeFa's. If they are PeFa's, they are 70mm diameter.

    3D Rebuilding the Compy MX2.

    Yeah..... Not a Futaba guy.... I would say, if the Futaba 18 is anything like the JR top tier radios, you have to set each channel. I have mine set to "HOLD". Which holds the last input. Simply because, if I were to get signal back, I would know it, as I hold my next input on the sticks...

    3D Rebuilding the Compy MX2.

    Glad to hear! That same thing happened on Terry's Custom MX2 with the DA 150. A couple screws cured that. Glad its back home in 1 piece! :) Still have a few weeks for mine to get here.

    Onboard Electronics Design Schematic

    Some simple planning goes a long way. You can't eliminate all failures, but you certainly reduce them. I set the Rx behind the CG, and use the batteries and rudder servo(s) to get the CG right before the first flight. If the CG needs tweeked, I have the room for that with batteries. :) Use...

    How'd your eyeballs do, Mike?

    Thrust line adjustment?

    Say you need a little more up thrust and right thrust.... You would put just 1 washer behind the bottom left engine mounting lug.

    Thrust line adjustment?

    Leave the washer in. I usually try to match up a set of washers.

    RG611B 6ch DMSS Park Flyer Rx

    Any Rx that has "Park Flyer" listed on it, typically is 1000' range.

    I would apply, if it were a UAS position, but then, it would kill me on child support..........

    Help with making my own servo extension, question on the wire...

    Ive use 22ga flat and twisted. Extensions were upwards of 60". Never an issue. Obviously, the larger the wire, the lesser the voltage drop. Your limiting factor is the servo plug, as far as current capabilities. Just make sure that your pins are copper coated. I have used connectors and...

    3D to iBEc or not to iBEc that is my question

    Sorry, in a short rush there........ Provided you are running an ignition pack, is when you need some sort of kill switch. But if not running an ignition pack, then none of what I said is needed. Using ibec, rcexl works great! Ive been using rcexl for a couple years without issue. Still...
