    Twisted Hobbys Owner's Thread!!

    I had a 32" Xtra Slick and now a 33" 3DHS Extra 330 EPP and was thinking my next foamy would be the Crack Yak. No one local fly's them and I wonder if someone would break down the flying plus's and negatives of each (if there are any) of the Crack Yak, Crack Pitts, EPP Edge 540, Sbach etc. I...

    DM-4325 motor.

    The 4325 on 8S is what I fly in my 71" Slick and I loved the combination. Just the right amount speed and pulled out of any bad situation. I too would highly recommend it. Ken is a great guy to work with as well, a true win win.

    Sweet Skills with KE Spin

    Looking for some advice on getting more consistant KE spins. First off I am not having any problem with my larger 87" SHP but I have had problems with my smaller planes locking a KE Spin in. Smaller as in 42" Slick and 47" SHP. I have have experimenting with how much ruder and how much...

    What is your setup on your 87?

    Thanks. I did add one more from my 87" SHP. The inside view was taken during my build but I have since placed some 1/8" foam that has a stick back on the back of the circuit board. Probably not needed but seemed exposed to me.

    For those finding building a battery share device more than they want to bargin for or don't trust their soldering should look into a Wolverine Switch. Lots of great feedback on GiantScaleNews. It is 2 solid-state 'fail-safe' style Switches, bright LED on lights, 2 simple Charge Jacks, and...

    The 3DRCForums -Discuss Anything Thread-

    My LHS only wants to stock junk props but at least they are willing to order what I need. Sales tax is cheaper than me paying shipping in most cases.

    87†3DHS Extra 300 SHP w/DA-60

    Something else I wanted to show you guys if you ever have the need is for a plane restraint. Our field does not have any for gas planes. I found this folding bike rack at Home Depot for $5.99. I cut off the top "U" bent it flat with a hammer and slid over a 1/2" sch 40 PVC pipe to hold the...

    87†3DHS Extra 300 SHP w/DA-60

    Going to fly tomorrow morning and it feels like a maiden all over. Travel has not allowed me to fly the big stuff. Since my last flight I switched to a 8FG radio and also using a new receiver. This will also be the first flight with my new Vess Stealth carbon prop. Nice looking satin...

    How much does that affect battery life? Are you still using the factory battery?

    Futaba 8FG(S)

    Just wait until you start flying a gasser, the alarm is harder yet to hear yet. You mention looking down at the transmitter, do you have the display set to the large view setting to see easier?

    Discussion How are your Glacier batteries working out?

    I have 6 3S 35C 2200's that have been amazing so far. I fly 6 minutes with an Omega 130 on my 47" SHP and come down just barely warm. I have around 65 flight on them now between the 6 so no high cycles yet. They are the real deal and the best part is Dale is a great guy, they are in the US, I...
