    Peak Models 32% Extra 330 SC

    So I guess this means you can get back to making that green/yellow banana flight ready. Maybe you can beat me with the Baby Yak-ster. Ah! Too late. It is done....:fist_pump: Looks real nice Kelly. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

    Show off Warbird photos...you know you have one!

    Sooo.... Just my opinion, but this is just about as bad ass as it gets. And we think our rc hobby is demanding. LOL http://theballybomber.com/videos.html

    Can I help it? I'm a guy. What can I say? Just some things are better when they're big. RC planes, rc engines, rc flying fields.... big is good.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I too am confused. I had always been told and had learned that while charging any battery, it is normal for them to warm a little bit. Due to the electrons being moved around and excited, they will warm a little bit. At least all of my batteries, new or old have done this before. Though I will...

    That is awesome to hear. I am glad that it worked out for you. It is just really sad that people do the kinds of things this individual did.

    Ok, belly hatch ready for covering. And now it's finished. The hatch that is. Finally down to just the cowl. I will actually be glad when this one is done.

    I managed to time it just right between rain showers today. Got the initial thrust test done and not at all surprised. That little 62 is a running quite nicely. Right at 37 pounds of static pull, (Thrust). That should take this bird over the top huh? I also took a few photos before bringing it...

    Bright and early start this morning. I wanted to get the last of the programming done so I could focus on the cowl. Initial throws were more than I thought. My final aileron throw is 45 degrees both directions. Elevator is 58 up, 54 down. Since this plane weighs all of 19 pounds with 95"...

    Oh she's not done yet. But close I would say today. As for flying... we will probably have a dozen or so days between now and spring that could be filled with flying. Maybe more, we will see. What will I do next? Depends on weather. Definately replace the Behemoth Yak (2) canopy. Remember it...

    Well the Baby Yak-ster fuse is pretty much done. Got the motor box top cut and glued into position. Installed some protective wrap on the sensor lead. And then buttoned everything up. Also mounted the rx. antennas and finalized the wiring in the fuse. All that is left now is the cowl fitting...

    Let’s Talk Fuel Lines!

    Speaking of fuel lines.... Found this to be an interesting bit of information. Oh yea, now I remember why I don't use ethanol fuel. Hardening of the fuel lines is as bad as hardening of the arteries. LOL...

    Real Flight 8 (RF8)... It's Here!!!

    Sweet..need to look into this. The 7.5 has been fun, but like my normal lifestyle of big planes, I WANT MORE. LOL

    Before I take a Saturday afternoon old man nap, I thought I would share some exciting news. First the photos of the nearly finished up baby Yak. Got the throttle servo in and programmed. Also got the choke pull rod engineered for perfect operation. Cleaned up the inside of the fuse. That wiring...
