    Been playing with electricity and have fried me brain! I REALLY REALLY need to get this in the shop so I don't have to post about CHEAP HK planes :deadhorse:. The Sbach is getting gutted. It served it's purpose. If some one comes to my location and buys me a cheeseburger they can have it. :laughing:

    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    Was a nice sunny and warm (86 degrees) day today and got off 3 flights. Radio did great and motor never got hot. Pretty much stayed at 118*F or lower during flying and crept up to 121*F after landing and motor shut down (heat soak) for cooling off. It was really bright and the sun shade I added...

    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    Hey! How about something pertaining more to the radio!:big_yes:??? I have gotten some messages asking about using robotic or "full range servos".

    Electric Power for a 20cc Profile

    Not to be off topic but did you know that a lot of US consumer electronics (80%) are made in China? (Duh!) The positive side is that semi conductors, processor chips, SMT components designed in our own silicon valley are used in these electronics. And of course the Piezo circuit ( invented by...

    Turnigy TGY-i10 full telemetry 10 ch computer radio

    Today was a really nice day but I did not get the chance to get a flight logged with the radio. I did however get the optional sun shade for the radio. It works! so I recommend if any one getting one of these radios go ahead and spend the additional 4$.
