    Bull Engines BE 124 Twin Review and Testing

    I am going to do an endurance test on the 124 this Wednesday. (Weather permitting) I have put 6 consecutive flights on the Edge previous to the 124. (DLE 111) I am charging extra flight packs and tx. packs, (if I need it) I plan to put 15 non stop consecutive flights on the BE 124 powered Edge...

    Wanted Pilot 35% Extra 330SC

    As the header states, looking for a "NEW" still in box Pilot 35% Extra 330SC. I prefer the Purple and Orange scheme. If you have one and would like to part with it, please get hold of me. I am helping my son locate one and we have just over a month to get it built for Tri-Cities.

    Very nicely done Tanner. You just have to come to Tri-Cities.

    5 great flights today on the big Yak. I just love this plane. It has got to be my favorite for rollers and rolling circles. So smooth, so graceful and so darned fun. And it just looks bad ass too.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Just can't resist. I am heading out again tomorrow morning at first light. I've spent so much time with the Pilot Edge over the last few weeks, my other rides are starting to wonder if I still love them. I assured them one and all that I do. I mean after all, Baby is getting freshened up for...

    Ah ha! Now I remember seeing it. I almost bought one of those last year. But alas, they didn't have one in stock with a redheaded 3dub.:frown:

    What fun! 4 more flights, (84 total now) with the BE 124. Knocking on gallon number 5's door. I had so much fun today I even "danced" the rudder on the runway again. Oops!! Lol But alas, I failed miserably. I fully intended to do everything in my power to get that engine to die, quit, stall or...

    Bull Engines BE 124 Twin Review and Testing

    Four more flights and have passed over the 4 gallon mark, knocking on the five gallon mark. The 124 keeps getting better with each flight. I have discovered the trick to this engine's starting procedure. Talk about consistent and precise! One flip choke on. (No pop needed) Choke off, two flips...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Heading out bright and "WAY" early tomorrow. I have a date with a certain Purple Pilot Edge of the BE 124 persuasion. The goal is to hit 5 gallons burned. I am going to beat the livin' tar outta that plane.:devil-dance: I haven't been able to make the 124 stall, quit, die or otherwise give up...

    Bull Engines BE 124 Twin Review and Testing

    Three quick clips of the 124 after the Hall sensor swap. Timing set and I running great. I think I am good to go. Taking the Pilot Edge/BE 124 out tomorrow to beat the livin' tar outta it. And I am not leaving until I reach that 5 gallon mark. (Which is not that far away now) Will post results...

    Indeed. Thank you Kelly. Since the sensor swap, it is quite the beasty.

    Bull Engines BE 124 Twin Review and Testing

    This is a really crappy video everyone, but at least it is something. This was before I changed out the Hall sensor and still had the 124 a little on the rich side. This is only my opinion strictly because I have put 77 flights on this Edge. I have never been as close to dumping it as I was in...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I wanted to add one other thing that I have recently been doing with superb success. Instead of drilling holes the size of the servo screw, I have been drilling one size smaller. Then when using the socket head screws, they bite very nicely and you don't strip out a Philips head putting them in...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Cool..builder knew what he was doing obviously. Yes, the medium ca works great. As long as the hole isn't "TOO" stripped out. I had one that was too stripped for any screw to bite. I ended up putting a piece of tape on the underside of the hole to seal it from below. Then mixed up some five...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Tanner, I have had a couple of stripped holes. Not fun, especially when you realize you "could" have been flying with them that way for awhile. That is why I have stepped up the rigorous maintenance checks on my planes. I've been removing the servos, putting a drop of "medium" CA in to each...
