    74" Edge 540

    You can do it. Just you need to relocate the rudder horn I believe and make a custom push rod. My old one had a tail rudder servo, but I bought it used and it has been modified apparently.

    Extreme Flight 88" Edge -- now with EXP sized horizontal stabs

    I am running a PTE-72 twin in mine. Just got it down today to do some work on it. Replaced the rudder servo with the 7956SHR that was originally in it that had to go back to Hitec for service. Did some investigating work on putting in twin Evolution pipes. I was told by the Horizon rep at...

    Aj aircraft 93,73,56 laser

    Looking at Andrews post about his setup this airplane is equipped just the 51 slick. HS-85 servos and 4s 3300. This means 3615-750. Here is his post from RCG. As far as the aircraft go I have 2 sizes that are ready to be released to the market, a 56" Laser 230 as well as a 73". The 56" Laser...

    74" Edge 540

    I meant the 6 only because if you sell the RX and your 6i you are in for under $100 for a more capable TX. The 9 is better.

    74" Edge 540

    Take back that opto kill and get a IBEC. http://www.tech-aero.net/ultra-ibec Ignition batteries are one more thing to remember to charge and another failure point and additional weight. I would put a new DX-6 high on your priority list. As far as switches go, for redundancy you need a true...

    3DHS 108" Extra 330LT

    Yesterday at WRAM the 3DHS crew were talking about their latest project, the 108" Extra 330LT. It's design goal seems to be to rival and beat the Extreme Flight 104" Extra 300. They did not yet have the model at the show. Some of what I discovered I talked about in this thread...

    I circled back around to talk to Ben at 3DHS about the 3M epoxy guns, which he is a big fan of, when I noticed the wing tips on the new Yak 55. They are "toed in" to give it yaw stability. Like dihedral, only in the Z axis. The wing tip is straight, the photos are canted.

    Here is a cool setup that was on display for a Wyvern in the scale competition. Pretty cool counter rotating prop for no torque effects.

    I also stopped to talked to Castle Creations and they had a prototype Talon 120 with a 20A BEC. They tested the connector and heavy guage wire up to 10As. Also reported that they have a good beta test going on new firmware for the 28 pole Hackers and should be available for the whole line very...

    Once they got their shipping problems solved I went to visit Desert Aircraft. Here are a few photos of the mythical DA-35. They have spent their time working out the kinks in this new motor and they might be available in the next month or two. Sounds like it will be a 3D monster from some of...

    Next I got to talk to Golden Skies RC, whom is the US distributor for DLA engines. They are a offshoot from DLE with a emphasis on quality over manufacturing efficiency. Better bearings, Walbro carbs, more CNC parts and their own ignition modules to name a few differences. Unfortunately their...

    Next door is Hobbico and they had their new U-Can-Do up on diplay. Looks like a good fit for my Evolution 15cc or the new GT15.
