    2015 Joe Nall

    Gosh I hate to miss Joe Nall again this year. But I always look at it this way. There will be plenty more Joe Nalls for me to attend in the future. Have fun everyone and travel safe!

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Teaching her how to fly RC. She is almost a commercial pilot now, but she has to learn RC ;). She is flying the new Sensei with WISE. Never had to take the controls except for take off and landing. It was even a 15 to 20 mph wind type of day.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Had an awesome Judging School for IMAC take place in PHX area this past weekend. I have been flying IMAC for over 10 years now and attended several judging schools. It is amazing you learn something new at each judging school you attend. Southwest region did a great job putting it on.

    Plane Restraint

    Someone out of Florida made one that was yellow and would hold your tail and it would drop when you moved the plane. I left it out at the field and never took it out and I think someone ran it over because it was broken a month later.

    Plane Restraint

    What are you guys using to hold your plane back while starting? I know if there is someone at the field that is my very first option, but lately the field has been empty with the weather warming up in AZ. I was thinking about doing what I did back at my other club I belong to and that was put...

    IMAC Dalton Extra 300SP KG's new Contest plane.

    Its still today the best 40% 3D plane I have ever flown...I still have the plane, but it needs to be repaired from a crash it was in a few years ago.

    IMAC Dalton Extra 300SP KG's new Contest plane.

    Come a long way since my first Dalton 260 back in 2006. This past weekend I placed 1st place in Unlimited Class for my first contest with this plane. I will say though I magically won it considering my buddy Bill had a engine failure during his unknown. He would have took the win if that didnt...

    Cool UAV Project! Share Yours!

    I am not a big AZ fan, maybe because I live in Yuma where it is 120 degrees in the summer time...but Prescott all year round is very nice. Gets a little warm in the summer, but it kind of reminds me of Georgia temps in the summer without being humid... It does get breezy a lot of days...well at...

    OMP's Prototype Yak 55M 60" Electric Video

    Will try to get the exact info this week. Out of town now and will check it out when I get back. It looks like these might make it to the U.S. around Joe Nall time. Let's hope it comes before so we can sell them at Nall

    Reza has been here for a week and he's already giving stuff away! RED LINE OIL!

    Been using redline for a few years now and mainly because DA recommends it. It's kept my engines running clean and never had an issue with any of my DAs. When I switched from another well known name I saw a bit of a difference. Plus the bottles are really easy to mix five gallons at a time.

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    I used wrong way tanks for the past three years and the same tank is still going strong. Honestly I feel any gas tank needs replacing after one to two years of flying hard. It's not too expensive to replace them for your yearly check up

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    I am going to start to run 3 cell lipo setup with a bec. My newest plane has this setup and I am very happy with it. I always take the batteries out to charge though.
