    Sport 50CC AMR STICK THREAD

    I was going to vote yes if it takes less than a year, but since people that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones I figured I'd just vote definitely. ;) Well over three years on my project now days.

    motor mounts, aluminum is preferred....

    This is one by Aero Lite Mfg for a DA60 that my friend Chris @JC 3D had. A pretty neat design.

    Thurmma from the looks of that dowel in your Terryscustom stand you may need something a little more stout. ;)

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I got out today too! The weather was iffy so I took my trusty T-Rex 550e helicopter. The wind is less of an issue than with an airplane, and if the rain comes it's easier to get under cover. It was the first time I'd flown a heli this year. I brought it home in one piece so it was a good day!

    Headcount

    Even your uncle Bill said something on the same line as me a few weeks ago, and Bill's a damn good pilot, waaaay better than me.;)

    Headcount

    The best way I can describe Ryans flying is that every time I watch him fly, I want to take my airplane, pour what's left of the fuel in my jug on it and toss in a match. It's like wow, what's the point. ;)

    I have 3 DA50'S so I'm glad to see this. One of mine is just sitting on the bench right now looking for a home.

    Su-26M Knife Edge

    Several of my airplanes will try and roll out as well as pull. My JR 11x has the mix for rudder to elevator and ailerons so the set up is easy, and like Terry said when the mix is set up right it does wonders. Nice stable knife edge as low as your nerve will allow. ;) I have mine on a switch...

    Su-26M Knife Edge

    It could be tail heavy or a thrust and or incidence issue. I solved mine on my Pilot edge with a mix. Find the Peter Goldsmith trimming guide and go through it. It can be very helpful.

    Rings for Rossi .60

    Finding a ring is probably going to be tricky. I always ran 10% in my Rossi .60's for the most part, but I ran 15% at times. Always on a Mac's muffled tune pipe, and an 11 x 7 1/2 prop.

    Didn't make it to the shop because........

    I blew off flying today so I could replaced the power supply that got cooked in yesterday's power problems. Luckily I had an identical computer at home that I could rob the power supply out of. Everything at work is back up and working now, but there won't be any sim flying at home until my...

    Didn't make it to the shop because........

    I had a manly excuse today. I went to lunch with friends and after that I went by my business to check on something. The minute I opened the door I smelled smoke and saw a haze in the air. It turns out we lost the neutral on the power lines going to the building. The smoke was from the water...

    Pilot RC owners thread

    Airplanes roll in both directions?;) I standing at the field one day watching the best pilot in our club doing very low rolling harriers in a circle in front of him. One of the club know it all's comes up and says "Notice how those guys always roll the same direction". I told him 'Well if you...
