    IMAC JTEC/ Radiowave 3.1m competition series

    It's an Align T-Rex 550 V1 I bought used. It was supposed to be a budget project, but being my first big electric the charger setup and batteries blew the budget way out of the water! Her it is in my crowded messy workshop. 15627=9815-T-Rex 550.jpg

    IMAC JTEC/ Radiowave 3.1m competition series

    Brian, I cant wait to see it covered. As someone that sands on a daily basis for a living, I feel your pain. My knees are killing me right now, can I borrow that Icy Hot? I spent all afternoon at the field putting my first flights on a helicopter in 29 years. I think my thumbs are...

    Flight/Maintenance Log

    Okay I figured out the fuel today. When your on the main screen that shows all of your airplanes scroll right like when you scroll pictures on your phone. That will get you to the battery page for electrics, one more goes to gas. Just setup your gas then chose it when doing each flight log.

    Flight/Maintenance Log

    After reading some of this thread last Saturday I downloaded an app called T3chDad RC Flight Log for my Android phone. It's pretty basic with date, time, fuel used (even though I have yet to make that work) and flight notes. I need to figure out why I can't seem to make the fuel log work, then...

    Near Miss: Scorecard: Bird 1 Plane 1 = tie!

    14892=8357-IMGP9629_c.jpg This was on the remaiden of my 90" Carf Extra. That was a mighty big bird. We have Bald Eagles that nest not too awfully far from our field. I've never seen one there, but I would hate to see what would happen to someone that hit one of those. You'd be so...

    Or when it's your best flying buddies flying piggy bank that just handed you the transmitter and wanted to see how you do a Pop Top.

    Topics and a build thread for the new guys

    Some of the main mistakes I see people new to gas make are: 1. Poor control linkage setup. The things you get away with on glow or electric wont cut it on a gasser. 2. Poor fuel system installation. No barbs, no zip ties, hardware store fuel line, ect. 3. Lack of Loctite. I Loctite...

    Anybody remember the lingo

    Yeah, me to. I spent parts of two days in a corn field looking for the engine that was still running after the mid air. It was a loooong way from the rest of the parts.
