    DA-70 Alternatives

    Just say'n........Two DA 70's can be got for the price of 3dub 70. Fine motor no doubt but you can get a DA 120 for the cost of the 3 dub too! PTE makes a 72 twin that has excellent power. It is a little more powerful than EME 70 but the cylinder head fins point down and not front to back for...

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    Ditto on the that flying site. And looking at the 104 and 91 side by side blows my mind. The 91 is HUGE. Got my 104 all repainted and fixed up from my last dirt nap vid. will post some pics soon. I got the 4.5 carbon falcon spinner painted with a "peel away" air brushed scheme and it looks...

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

    You Can Do It!!!!!!! I got to "Un do" my You Can Do as well. But honestly.... only very minor damage to fuse and will need a new cowl. I will say the little ys 70 dz hauled 7.75 lbs with ease spinning a 15x7 wood. Will have a funny vid soon showing my maiden and last flight which was all in...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Not bad but engine quit going in to a hover and the vid was similar to the funny one I posted in my build thread ( Guy bouncing his Sbach). You could hear things like :steamer: and Ooh!at the end :laughing:. I guess I am just going to have to be satisfied being a "fair weather" flyer:lol2...

    The heat is on down here. Air conditioner even says it to darn hot! This crap got to go now! @stangflyer the DA is just too pretty for me to let go :big-grin:. It will fly in the extra 330sc but I still got crap to fix and figure out with it. Gives me something to ponder other than my...

    I failed to mention my last time out with my Pilot 30 cent Edge a flying buddy brought the new 74" EF Edge. It was covered just like the 88". It had a DLE 35RA and Xoar 20x8. I got the engine tuned for him and we maiden with great success. It looks as if it flies like its bigger brother! Might...

    Once the parts get done will post pics of the wheel pants and canopy. I have almost decided to just go with in cowl mufflers for the DA 70. Thinking of doing a duct system similar to my 104 and DA 120. Got the DZ 70 tucked inside the cowl quite nicely. The power this little engine makes...
