    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Really windy day and I converted my "shot on a stick" to a "shot in the head". When I get the vid posted you will see I turned it in to a "shot to the ground" lol Most annoying damn thing I ever put on my head. Vid shortly.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    FYI I tried to make one (washer / under plug) but the resistance changed (I have a millivolt meter) and I pretty much destroyed the temp sensor. And Futaba's sensors are kind of pricey. They also have a special circuit built in ( s-bus serialization) so my tach is moot to use with telemetry and...

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    In the back. I did learn something on these forums!lol That's why a washer type thermocouple (under plug) would be nice for Futaba to offer up.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    Right cylinder wrapped around under top fin. Wish Futaba would make one that gets installed under the spark plug.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Nice! I really enjoy Pilot airframes too! I am also really enjoying the EF 104 Extra. I got a DA 70 needing a home in either the Pilot or 3DHS YAK 55M. I think the 3DHS is lighter than the Pilot! and the cowl is slightly larger round to swallow up the engine! and 91" span vice 88" span. I think...

    Futaba 14SG vs Graupner 24-MZ? Help!

    The Graupner display is nice and I imagine programming is fairly intuitive. HOTT systems are like FHSS with telemetry. I guess you could compare the Graupner MZ24 RF protocol to Futabas FHSS w/telemetry like in the 10J but a nicer color touch screen display. I would imagine support to be as good...

    What is an expected motor temperature and too hot temperature?

    The temp range as stated by others are a good measuring stick. You said it is winter so I assume ambient conditions are below 60 degrees?? it is actually 65 as I type this where I am and my engines run 260 -280 (EME 60) 240- 260 (DA120). These temps are different because the difference in...

    Getting Kids involved in RC?

    Yes you are absolutely right. Could not really get my "little guys" interested and there is no worse experience than "babysitting" at the field. I had to draw the line however when it came to getting on a skateboard! What ever happened to just pitch and catch!? And my little "darlings" (I had 2...

    Emcotec's PWC3 and PWC6 power servo harnesses

    I looked again and "just the connectors" are not available. Would be nice to make up your own custom lengths and choice of "snake skin" color. As far as the pins I think some shrink wrap would keep all 3 or 6 servo plugs on just fine.
