    Favorite and Most Trusted RC Vendors

    Subsonic planes. http://www.subsonicplanes.com/ I had a minor problem with a recent order and they took care of it with speed and friendliness. That's what sets the great vendors apart from the rest.

    Red Bull Stratos - freefall from the edge of space ***LIVE NOW***

    Textbook landing too! The most awesome part to me was seeing two generations of 100% bona fide insane dare devils working together!

    Discussion Long term planning: Getting into gas

    Let me know! If those servos are OK, that would mean some major savings on a 71"!

    Discussion Long term planning: Getting into gas

    Really? Solar? I was pretty excited about them until I read some horror stories of bad solders and boards not being anchored and just floating around inside the case. If that's true (again, I read it on a forum, so who knows?) I'm not sure how that would work with all the vibrations of a gasser...

    Discussion Long term planning: Getting into gas

    I think my short list is down to ether a 70" Velox or a 71" Slick. Slick Pros: It's an AJ Slick, stupid!!! Slick cons: A bit harder to fit in my car. Needs a 30cc and slightly more expensive servos. Velox pros: A bit easier to transport in my car. Runs on a 20cc and slightly...

    3DHS New Products and General Plane Info/Help for Fanatics

    It was great! I think it was the first time participating in an online garage sale for some of us (I know it was for me), so maybe that's why there were a few fumbles (me included [almost]). A few minor tweaks is all we need to make it 100% perfect next time. And next time I'll win something! :)

    I thought "prop strike" when I saw the picture. Glad it wasn't and glad it's working out for you!

    You may be addicted to RC if...

    ...when you try to snatch the plane packages from the delivery guy and hide them from your wife in the back of the boiler room. I did that recently with my EF Laser. Two days later, my wife casually asked me if I wasn't going to build the plane that got delivered the other day. And I know SHE...

    What's on your bench?

    A 3DHS 41" Edge with some minor damage to the motor box. I should really do something about that. It's been out of commission since the FLIE.
