    RCGF 120

    That aint to shabby. Is it hotter than hell up there too!? Shoot......My old (I mean sold) DA120 was a solid 6500 with the 29x9 with only a few gallons thru it. Acceleration was INSANE tho. Hows the foot pedal on that RCGF?

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I can't believe I went out flying today. DB temp 96 Heat Index 108. The EME 60 held in there strong tho because I sure did not. Ended up passing the sticks to my good friend Raiko. I was actually very dizzy getting ready to faint and :speechless:. Had to hug a fan for 30 minutes to get my...

    BlueBird HB 50B servos

    No doubt when these bad boys are pushing almost 800 oz . Really looking forward to getting mine back. Ok I know this is getting off track but I got a close buddy who wants a 8711HV for his rudder on an EF91". He runs Chads A123's exclusively and wants to keep all his servos JR> Somebody help a...

    DA 120 with onboard Tach.

    Being that the prop hub is fluted and tapered on the back side I was able to bench mark with a hand punch and use a hand drill to drill and tap the holes with out having to remove the prop hub. The wall thickness of the crank case front bearing bore is about 3/16". I would imagine your DA100 is...

    DA 120 with onboard Tach.

    That will get the job done! My DA 70 did not have the additional holes either so I made some and tapped to 6-32 because all my 4-40 taps are broken. Need to get to the hardware store.

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

    I think a Big Mac Slab Pilot would get the hunger really going!!!!!! As far as the scheme..........It has to match My Purple! I have decided to do Purple in a 3-2-1 combo.........20cc.....60cc......120cc;).

    Bull Engines BE 124 Twin Review and Testing

    So if the 75cc twin will fit in cowls with at least 11.5" width's then I would opt for the 75cc if the engine weight is about 4 pounds +or-. I don't mind if the plugs are angled down or strait. It needs to share the same prop bolt spacing and mounting foot print of the DA and EME 70's. If it...

    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    A little bit higher. With the 15x7 carbon I was getting barely 1000watts. The 16x8 1300watts. Motor is good for 1800watts so there is head room left and surprisingly everything runs pretty cool (95-100 degrees) in the hot weather! With the 90c packs power is incredible with the 16x8. Also smooth...

    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    Yes I am. Very light plane! 5 pounds w/o battery. My 3300 6S Nanno Tech's are brand new and need a few more cycles (deep) to reach their potential. I suspect about 6 minutes or better once their "broke in". I was really surprised how well the 10c 5200's did in series. Not quite the punch of the...

    Peak Models 32% Extra 330 SC

    It has been a bit and the plane has just been sitting pretty in the hangar. All 6 BLS-H50B servos have gone back to Blue Bird for "updating". I wont have them back for a bit but the problems encountered and found with the extensions have made me realize that the workhorse BLS3114's where not...

    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    Some more stick time with the radio and Aura 8. A 6S 90c 3300 lipo went 5 minutes and land now. I paired two 3S 10c 5200's in series and got solid seven minutes of 3D flying and land with reserve power. I am really liking this radio. Finally able to stock up on 3- 10 channel and 3- 6 channel...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I have pretty much been looking at other "lunchable" things to do as well. Just to hot, sticky and miserable to enjoy the great outdoors with a flying machine. So I build CHEESEBURGERS instead.......:happy:.
