    What Wheels to use for 35% plane?

    Sullivan are nice. Dubro's are just as nice. I have been using the TL series on all my planes. 50cc clear up to my big birds. The hold up well, have great shock absorbing features. I can't remember if I had 4" or 4.5" on my PAU. But I do have the 4.5" on my Pilot Edge. 5.0" on my 260 and I...

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

    I'm sure your Evo 176 is no different than mine was Mark. I had pretty much the same problems. Seemed it would break most any prop loose and rip the poop outta it. Other props it seemed too loaded. I just could never find the happy medium. The motor makes great ponies once you get past a certain...

    There are already some smokin' deals. Not only 40%. But 100cc'ers as well. Since when could you buy a new setup, only 5 flight Pilot 40% 330SC with everything...bnf top of the line servos, hardware etc., for under 2500.00? That is just "plane" nutz! (Pun intended) I'll fly mine till the glue...

    1-3 mph winds, Sunny blue clear skies, 85 degrees. Yup, time for some really REALLY big plane flying. I skipped out of work early and met my friend at the field. What plane today you may ask? How about a monster behemoth 47% Pilot Decthlon. Smokin' like it's on fire. I got a chance to fly it for...

    So cool...the black blob thing is definitely a true statement. Unfortunately the "ONLY" drawback of this plane. Bright sunshine usually helps in that department. Both my previous 87" and the 107" have the same issue. The 107 not quite as bad cuz it's bigger. But hey, here's an idea ya old...

    Carbon Propeller Repair

    I had a similar incident with a 32x11 Falcon. Mine wasn't quite as bad. What ever it was that I did, it took about one mm off the leading edge tip. I used a really fine rasp file to take off the remaining trailing edge tip. I then sanded it with 400 grit to regain the original shape. Once that...

    Didn't help much but you are welcome. Hope you get it figured out.

    Glad to hear it went well. At least you brought her home safe right? 4300 is really not a good rpm for a DA 150. Even if it is an older one, as long as it is in good condition...i.e., rings seal well, carb is adjusted good and reeds are good, there is no reason you shouldn't be getting more rpm...
