    74" Edge 540

    I still have it and am willing to sell it. Another pilot tried to adapt it for 10s, but that did not work at all. Maybe I was reading way too much into my watt meter being so low and a unrealistic expectation on the planes I was flying. I originally bought it to get the Raven to CG. Also I felt...

    74" Edge 540

    Steve, how are you liking the A60-5S? I have one that I tried to use on a 78" EF Extra and a 74" EG Raven and I was never fully happy with it. When I looked up the motor on the German Hacker site it said the kv was 280 which was closer to the RPM readings I was getting. I went all the way up...

    Discussion Long term planning: Getting into gas

    I have both the Velox and the Slick in this size. I love the GT33 in the Slick, but the plane feels heavy on the gas setup.

    FAQ I'm new to 3D... where do I start?

    I'm not going to start the radio wars as your mileage may vary. We only have a small amount of 8FG people up here and the general opinion seems low. Now Futaba's FASST system is very nice and other radios like the 14MZ are the top of the food chain. Spektrum is the most popular system here...

    FAQ I'm new to 3D... where do I start?

    STAY AWAY FROM THE DX6i If you go Spektrum it is probably best to find a used DX-8 or get a DX-7S. I personally have a DX-18. It just fits my hands the best. The Futaba 8FG has proven to be a not great radio from the experience of the people whom have had them here. Lots of poor quality...
