    New Flight Power Batteries

    I recently got in several Flight Power packs to use. I must say I am very impressed with the quality of the products. The new 70c packs are perfect for any 3D airframe. I am running the 3800 mah 6 cell 70c packs in my prototype Yak 55M. I compared the packs to the older Flight Power packs and...

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

    I am using secraft rx mounts to mount my RXs to the plane. Instead of using the wood screws supplied with the mounts I used M3 screws with lock nuts on the other side.

    Looking for 60"ish precision/3D electric airframe

    The 55 will only be electric. The Fusion will be both a gas and electric version.

    Multi-rotors - Share your setups and headaches

    I have flown a lot of fixed wing stuff with autopilots. I have also flown a lot of smaller BNF quads, but last month I got a 3D Robotics X8 + as my first quad with a full autopilot and gimbal on it and I must say I am very impressed. I am very familiar with the Pixhawk autopilot and what I love...

    IMAC Dalton 300 ml build thread.

    I am undecided where all of my equipment will go. Probably the hardest part for me is trying to figure out how to mount everything neatly!

    What is YOUR RC Prediction For 2015?

    You will need a Commercial License to fly in R/C contest. That will finally give some of us a chance at winning them since "kids" cant compete in contest. :) Anyway! I continue to see new products to come out to make it easier for the average person to learn to fly. Electrics have made it so...

    If you get a drone for Christmas!

    I missed last years Joe Nall and have not read up on this...but how are they going to control freq next year at Nall with FPV planes? I heard talk about play it safe and turn on your video rx first to see if anyone is on that channel. Just curious. I see a lot more FPV flying at Nall this year...

    What are you going to build in 2015?

    Going to finish up my Dalton MEL that Tony just finished building for me. I have been slacking big time. I have not flown much Giant Scale this year. Mainly due to I have been really getting into FPV/UAV flying on the side (You would think doing it 10 hours a day for work it would get old...) I...
