    Sport CARF Pitts - Engine Upgrade

    Really a good looking bird. Just can't determine if the scheme is patriotic or rebel rouser. Hmn ...Lives in Atlanta.....I think the latter. Oh and by the way I thought those four red heads screamed for more pretty well:).

    Sport CARF Pitts - Engine Upgrade

    It would have only been better if you had forgot to dial some expo in. Then you could have cleaned both sides of your undies. Like the 9ers at Levis lol

    Help - Need name of manufacturer

    If it is an Aero-works it will have their logo stamped or lazer etched some where up front. Personally it looks like a typical China ARF or Korean ARF.

    Advice/Opinion on an engine

    No doubt the 123 will fly 30+ pounds. Just my .02$ is that they are better suited to a very aggressive flying style like the DA 120 is. Both these engines are very similar on how they fly a plane and the prop that gets it done. So if "accelerated bad ass" is what you want on the nose good...

    Petitioning AMA members for separation from drones

    Done! The other one asked for money which I signed but no money because I would hate to think money went to the wrong hands.

    FAA Announces their rules for radio controlled aircraft

    You both are spot on. Is there a conspiracy China has started this mess and the drone was the toy tool??? Hmn.......makes you think! But on a personal level IMHO "invasion of privacy" and "control over free will" is what has most in an uproar and the FAA has no business to put this stink in our...

    Sport Restoring The Laser

    David....... Make a list of how plane performance and flying style are going to influence your servo choice. Example.....1) 30% Lazer @25 pounds = Heavy wing loading. (To stupid right now to figure the actual wing loading lol but it is going to be close to 30oz a sq in)...

    Altitude: how it affects fuel/air ratio

    I too like how the engine complements the plane and prop. I want acceleration, I want breaking, I want thrust and put it all smoothly or instantly at my thumbs. My fingers don't work worth a damn. And with all these cool maneuvers nor does the right side of my brain. I do like seeing rpm for...

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    Looking good! Just me......If I was to do this plane I would try and make it operate as real as I could get it. So yes to the gear door sequencer's and the landing lights that come on when the gear is down:yesss:.

    FAA Announces their rules for radio controlled aircraft

    Ok.....I had a bad night's sleep but enough to calm my blood pressure down and again be rational. Bottom line... the clubs we belong to will enforce regulation or tell you to hit the road. Many others have said this and it is pretty much a no brainer. You can choose to go to that private place...

    FAA Announces their rules for radio controlled aircraft

    It is not a jurisdictional issue. It's public law. Weather locals choose to enforce it or not would be the concern but as we discussed over the phone I feel the same way and have had a belly full of the BS. Go fly and be well. Yea! "That's the ticket"
