    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I guess after six flights and 6 hours at the field, I should probably call it good for today. But dang it all, I still have gas and it's 69 degrees and 3mph winds. Oh well, tomorrow is another day. Guess I'll just have to bring the Yak or Sukhoi out. Oh darn!:laughing:

    Well, it's official. Removed the 111 from the 107" Pilot Edge this evening. It's getting a retrofit. A shiny brand new red jugged twin to yank this bad boy around. I do likes me those red headed 3w's.

    Oh yeah...hinges are flat style. Pilot uses them on most everything I think. You can get them in Dubro I'm thinking.

    Clear packaging tape over the top of your decal. Heat gun or iron set to medium low heat. Warm the decal just a tad to soften the adhesive. Hobby knife to gently lift the edge of each numerical or letter. While pulling the tape, work your decal up. It can be monotonous, but hey, cheap is cheap...

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    Well now...what do you know about this? I've pretty much figured the Pop-Top out quite nicely, but my rollers have "SUCKED". In this video it showed me exactly what I am doing...umm, not right. (Hate that wrong word. LOL)

    IMAC Dalton 260 Restoration

    Well we can't have that. I have actually been lining things out so I can hit it hard...non stop. I know when I get pre-occupied with my girls, they don't like it when I stop in the middle. :spongebob: Very soon, I promise.

    Moving to High Voltage

    If you have an up to date charger, it should be capable of all battery chemistries. My X4 will do Lipo, LiIon, NiMh, Nicd, Pb...pretty much everything. It has a preset in the menu. When you select "Discharge", it automatically takes the battery down to the safe discharged voltage so as to not...

    Any Monokote users here?

    Moving to High Voltage

    Very accurate info. I have seen many Lipo's and LiIons that have done this. Basically, due to the chemistry of the battery, the charger will not see all cells if voltage is too low. It gets confused thinking it is something other than what it actually is. Charge it for a short time on NiMh. Once...
