    3DHS 70" Velox

    My gasser Velox was right at 9lbs with the Mintor 22. It is slightly heavier with the GT22 on it and it is around 14 lbs of thrust. With the electric setup I could do a 19x8 Xoar and maybe get the weight below 9 lbs with the Hacker as it is the lightest setup of the bunch. I will mull over it...

    3DHS 70" Velox

    I had a 4325-310 in 2 planes on 8s 2 years ago. I can probably get the motor back as the airplane was crashed last weekend and the airframe has been given to Patrick for a rebuild as a gasser. I think 8s is too much weight and hastle on this plane. I think I would use my 6s 5300s on that...

    3DHS 70" Velox

    I flew mine some more today. I am always feeling it needs more power on the 20-22cc motors. I am going to convert it to electric. Only need to buy a motor. It will either be a Hacker A50-16S V3 or a Motrolfly. 4320-400 I think is the one I will look at.

    84" Bigfoot

    I unpacked mine. I have to gather up the equipment and do some servo swaps with my 74 Edge. Build should start tomorrow. Still undecided about what to do about the lighting. Getting all the gasser stuff to fit onto the tray will be take some planning as I am using a powersafe RX and that...

    3DHS 70" Velox

    What did he have to do to get it to balance? I had problems with my first Velox on the Mintor 22 with a 3 servo tail.

    3DHS 70" Velox

    Last night we modified a aero works latch into my 70 as the stock one departed the airframe last week. Luckily the canopy only had a small crack in it after it's unplanned feather landing. I hope to get some flights on it this weekend. Finally get to see what the GT22 can do on this airframe.

    You can still "pre-order" the red one.

    84" Bigfoot

    3DHS Velox 70" Servo Configuration

    I am on my second 20cc Velox. The current one has one elevator servo in the tail along with a rudder servo. Batteries are mid ship. You could put the bats on the turtle deck and get away with a pull pull. The 68 had 3 servos in the tail and was about right on balance. I built the second one...

    Extreme Flight Owners Thread

    He sold it to Brandon, another local and I have not seen it since. It crashed a few times. I never saw it fly true 3D. It was more about the engine being a dud than the airframe. Someone will get around to doing another 20cc conversion I am sure. I think the 15cc will be more successful. More...

    15cc EF 60" Edge 540T-EXP Gasser

    I too looked at the Sebart planes when I was looking for a 10cc project as well as a 20cc project. They make glow kits for some of their planes. A bit pricey here in the States though for their ARFs. Build log has been updated. Firewall and ignition box installed. Cody told me to upgrade...

    78'' Extra

    Since I want to sell the Yak airframe I have not wanted to fly it. I liked the Xoar 20B more, but that is probably because it gave me more pull out thrust. I hope to fly both days this weekend so I will try to get it out one of those times.

    78'' Extra

    Maybe before I take apart the Yak I will try the 20x10 Xoar laminated I bought just to get prop data.

    Spektrum DX18

    I played with the Jeti at Nall and I do not like the hand held one. It is very heavy and bulky and did not fit my hands well, even with a strap. I could get used to the tray, but that is not the best for 3D type flying. The rep showed me some of the setup features and selling points and every...

    Extreme Flight Owners Thread

    Since I am getting a good deal on a power combo and I have a set of servos from the 10cc project, the only barrier is finding batteries. 6s 3300 were pretty rare for in stock last time I looked.

    Small Gas 3D

    My buddy just got his EME-60 from them and he got to experience their customer service as his motor has some issues that have been resolved. I would be interested as well to hear their opinion on this particular product. It does appear different from the one that general hobby sells. I also...

    Small Gas 3D

    I flew my GT22 the other day for the first time in a while. I changed the throttle servo (long story involving dth7). The throttle only works in a very small band. I have the geometry as good as I can get it and still there is a very silly throttle curve in it. The motor is silly quiet (84...
