    FAA 2014-0396- interpretation of new rule for Model Aircraft

    Exactly! Crystallized my point. That dictionary definition has allowed the media to lump Model Aircraft into a book definition that infers and suggests "spy drone". Definition 3 has all ready entered the mainstream. Any quad or multi rotor to a non RC enthusiast and even many AMA members has...

    FAA 2014-0396- interpretation of new rule for Model Aircraft

    JUST DONT SAY "DRONE" SUGGESTION TO START BEING PART OF THE SOLUTION. Hey guys and girls- What a mess! Right? Knee jerk, uniformed, over reaching legislation attempts to regulate technologies that have come from our hobby but whose applications are so different. "Drones"- shoot things and spy...

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    Could have been an adhesive problem and they loosened up and got on the cylinders.

    Sorry Dog- Go Pats! Those were taken on my flight from SLC to GEG (Spokane) loaded with Hawks fans. Had to give them som Pats pride! I told the haters that the tires were inflated to the proper pressure!

    You boys is way over my head! "All I know is some Peckerwood takes it up and some Peckerwood lands it and that Peckerwood is a Pilot...!" The Right Stuff. I'm just the Peckerwood. I'll leave the "concepts" to the think tank! Good fodder thou. Think on boys.

    Sim sessions!

    I'm on the road but last snow storm I looked for a session and for the first time I saw none. About 2 weeks ago. I haven't been on but when I do it's usually NH IMAC or NH3D or similar.

    60" Laser-EXP

    You could cut and solder depending on your soldering confidence. That could be introducing three more fail points!

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    Mines at Matt's house with his. Going Da 70 for power. Debating on 2:1 header w can and smoke, 2:1 header w pipe smoked, or skip smoke. With smoke try to plumb a 32oz gas/ 16oz smoke tank. Thoughts from the gallery? Not going to use the smoke much but but would be nice to have. With the 70 I...

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    Long time fellas. Looks like this is going to be the next giant for me. Hoping for "bling" and build help from ghoffman thinking DA 70 on cans with smoke (just cause I have to have at least one plane with smoke despite the known downsides).

    Extreme Flight Owners Thread

    + 1 on Nates comments plus doing a reed block inspection and sanding if necessary. I have a DLE 35 mounted on an EF 78 extra with a CF ES 40 tuned pipe turning a Falcon 20x8. It is reliable and produces plenty of power. I did the ring and reed block before the first flip. It has started on 2-3...

    More "refined" detailing and finishing, more composite and of course more $. Think turbine airframes. Real nice machines but you definitely pay for it.

    78'' Extra

    Me too. A little larger Rudder would make this awesome plane over the top, over the "pop top" !
