    Indeed. What does an EF 48" go for over there? You guys get all the cool sailplanes over there at least. I have a bit of a hotliner fetish though.

    Hobbyking Slick 360 3D

    They are expensive. Good planes though. They tend to be more slow and low and do not lean as much to the "xa" style. Slow and low in close in, the addiction looks like fun. Gotta have one someday. I thought maybe the price might be more realistic over there.

    Dang! That is a bummer. Same with Precision Aerobatics?

    Extreme flight has european distributors? That should be more cost effective?

    I need to fire up the mower and we need a roller for the new field area. It will be EF heaven around here this summer. No nose overs!

    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    Looks like fun to me. looks to have a bit more zoot! Thinking this may be a good home for my motrolfly 2205.

    73" QQ Yak 54

    I will measure it up tomorrow. They look really big for this plane. The issue with gear for this one is the narrow flat at the top.

    Cool High power charger on the cheap.

    Thanks dog! Big step up for sure. Tbe 306b is a nice unit. I almost went that route myself. In the end I went budget, at least for now. I am super happy with this setup. It was a fun project. The thing that swayed me was computer connectivity and being able to connect 2 units together...

    73" QQ Yak 54

    Does anyone know of some decent landing gear for the Yak? I believe the base is 3.5" I found a set but $50 seems a tad steep, but it may be made to order. I have a set of aluminum gear but it is way too wide at the base. I may need to cut and weld it. I may even do a budget electric setup...

    Cool High power charger on the cheap.

    So for $140 a little ingenuity and way to much time spent on the crazy interwebz (researching) I have a decent power charging station with a great power supply. I tend to really over analize everything I buy. It is just part of the fun for me. I don't think this can be beat. Plus I can...

    Cool High power charger on the cheap.

    So the hunt begins for the charger. I scoured ebay for weeks and various forums both heli and airplane. All the "good"(iCharger and Revolectrix) chargers that show up just are not a good enough deal to justify not buying new. I would have had a good deal on a powerlab had the poster responded...

    Cool High power charger on the cheap.

    I have been back into the hobby about 2 years. Flying 3s packs of 450mah, 1300mah and 2200 mostly. I have just been using a little Imax B6AC. Just a 50w, 5a charger. I fly at home so it really is not a big deal. Charge and fly, repeat. I decided I should upgrade my charger with my recent...

    I picked up a 1/4 electric driver from Snap-On. Clutch goes to down to almost nothing. I never thought it would be so usefull on planes, let alone around the house. Very small with a "rocker" trigger for forward/reverse.

    3D GRAVEYARD (Post pics of the mangled old bones that used to be your Airplane!)

    Hey! Just do some 1/4" balsa with some thin 1/4 carbon on both sides. Makes a super strong spar. Shipping would be cheap. You coukd use carbon tow and epoxy too.

    Wish it was easy to ship you some carbon rod. Cheap here.

    Great job on the rebuild! I have always loved rebuilds and building in general. I never got really good at covering. That has always been my holdup. The day will come when I will really take the time to learn it.
