    APC 20x8 (gas), APC 17x8E

    Got these props sitting unused, will trade them for Xoar/Falcon/Vess 20x6 or 19x8 electric prop (s).

    If you have servos less than a year old, they'll repair/replace them stateside. If more than a year, they have to be sent to Taiwan, and it's cheaper to buy new ones. I just sent a couple 1258s in for service, and this is the email I got regarding service:

    I think if you don't have an "off" day every now and then, you aren't human. Some days your perception and thought processes are much quicker than others, and those are two areas that are extremely important to flying.

    Hitec 5645 Question

    Sure. I've had all sorts of trouble with them. Not really. I've never used them. A little info and description would be of utmost importance to a potential diagnosis, no? :)

    No, I put washers on the back side of the firewall to prevent that.

    I knocked the blind nuts out, and elongated the factory holes a bit. It didn't require much, IIRC.

    30cc profile from the ashes of a 70" RIP AJ Slick - Build Log

    You've inspired me to use up some of the spare parts I've got lying around now! I've got 4 48" Edge wings, h-stab and elevator and rudder from a 57" Extra. 48" profile bipe might have to happen!

    Myself, I'd rather land then adjust rather than have it "misunderstand" me and go to 0% expo and high rates.... :o

    You can do that with any radio out there... Just assign different rates and expos to switches..... SamG.

    Hell yeah man, I miss my dirt bike now! Thanks a lot! Lol Didn't look like a 7 year hiatus slowed you down too much! I had an 04 CRF450R that was all stock, and one day on a ride, the piston decided it didn't want to be inside the cylinder any more. I sold it after that happened, but I'll have...

    I don't look at my speedometer intently, but I'd say maybe 115-120 mph max. As far as passing everyone, I usually ride in Advanced group (groups are Advanced, Intermediate, and Novice), and I signed up for Intermediate group that day, since I had never been on that track before and didn't want...

    That chicane is there for a good reason... If it weren't there, you'd carry a LOT more speed onto the main straight. There's a pretty good sized bump where the infield section joins the NASCAR straightaway, probably doesn't look that bad on video, but if you hit it at full speed with no chicane...

    Oh there was plenty of puckering going on, especially later in the day when the rear started sliding around a bit. Lol You just gotta trust it isn't going to let go entirely and keep a steady throttle hand or you'll end up on your head, in violent fashion. :)

    I don't either.. Don't accuse me of this! lol

    Went to Gateway Motorsports Park on Saturday. First time on that track, and it's different from what I'm used to for sure! Kinda freaky, pinning the throttle in a corner while you're pointed straight at a big concrete wall..... A nice track with a fun layout, but I don't think I'll be signing up...

    3DHS 48" Velox Motorbox Rebuild

    Finally got time to remaiden it a few minutes ago, 2 clicks of elevator trim and she was flying just like before! (Sans cowl, and with a busted up canopy..)

    3DHS Planes Picture Thread

    Just sayin, it's a pound heavier than a DA60. And a pound at the end of the motorbox is quite a bit of additional stress.
