    Pilot 30% Edge 540. Who's Flying it!?

    These new ARF's really fly well. Very stable and forgiving. You got time to recover from a mental block or if the plane gets nocked around a bit. They really help you stay in control. Just don't put the radio down. LoL

    Scale Pilot RC 32% Decathlon

    Very Nice. I did not realize the bend radius was that much but you did an excellent job for the cut out. You said you did run it. How did that exhaust tone work out?

    Pilot 30% Edge 540. Who's Flying it!?

    Yea the front dump pro flow will work in the front slots. At first I had borrowed a friends can don't know what one (3W or Johnson) but the stinger came off the front face of can and meant I had to do surgery. I decided for a rear dump and the bigger slotted area. Install went fast and easy...

    That's a good 10 or 15 degrees more than the Peak. I like.

    Pilot 30% Edge 540. Who's Flying it!?

    It is a slotted opening but not as big as the rear slotted opening. If front dump that has the stinger on the outside diameter of the can would work there. Ones that have the stinger coming off the front face of can would exit right about F-1. would need to shorten header and cut cowl. Cowl...

    The stick bangers thread

    Luv P-HUCK Vids. And all top Pilot vids. I was kinda hoping this thread would have a lot of personal videos of us not so perfect flyers. I know modest personalities of really potentially GOOD flyers keep it from happening but a critique from the expert flyers and good flyers would be most...

    Pilot 30% Edge 540. Who's Flying it!?

    That DLE is a good motor now. If you want to "jack up" the performance a bit do what @stangflyer did for under a 100 bucks. Header and can from HK. I like the EME because I can swing a little bigger prop (personal choice). I have the same header but a pro flow can which is WAY more expensive...

    The stick bangers thread

    Hey guys. Here is a vid of a friend who has just started flying GS. I was very impressed with his basic skills and his ability not to bag a first time biggie. He is sharp on the sticks and IMO talented enough to potentially be a really good flyer. So screen the vid and post up some advice for I...

    Basic engine tuning.

    Why not start the thread and have it so others can contribute? You have a good mind. You have rebuilt these engines. Seen your work. Excellent. And truthfully....I think a few would be upset thinking that they needed a crutch to figure out a toy motor. I just don't think the interest is there as...

    Prop database.

    EME 60 on pro flow- Mejzlik 24x8th. Lots of thrust. Excellent spool up. Quiet prop. Have not ripped it. DA 120 Falcon CF 29 x 9. Lots of thrust. Excellent spool up. Rips at WOT when approaching max air speed S&L. YS 175 Mejzlik 19x8. Lots of thrust. Excellent spool up. Quiet prop. This would be...

    Just so every one is on the same page.......The Pilot Edge comes out of the box suited to a rear dumb can...I mean dump can.

    Pilot 30% Edge 540. Who's Flying it!?

    The only reason I taunt that 15 buck aluminum is......IT CHEAP. And has outlasted an MTW. It had really good welds and was pretty beefy. Amazing what you can find in a garbage can sometimes.
