    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    I have one (20x6) waiting to go on my DLE 35 for an EF 78 Extra. Will report on the EF 78 Extra thread when I fly it. I think we'll have it set up in a week. I've heard good reports.

    Looking for Xoar electric 15x7s? Anyone? Also, good single lipo size for my 78 extra gas? I have one 2S 3000 mAh. Having a hard time finding that size. Thanks

    Looking for a second (single) battery for this. Have one 2S 3000 mAh now. Tough finding it. larger or smaller. Would like to get several flights on a charge. Thanks.

    64" mxs exp

    And loving it! Would love to have the 64 or 78!!!!! but mama would kill me! The durability of the EF frames continues to impress me. The couple (yes Cody, Matt and Gary it's only a couple! Ain't crashin, ain't tryin!!!!) mishaps I've had have really looked bad. When I get to the plane I've...

    Thanks, yes it is "star struck". Santi gets credit too. I am proud of my first "real" vinyl application. Thanks to Rapid RC for the samples.

    78'' Extra

    That's about the size of it. When I get the 78 up the gas 15 minute flts will be great. I have 4 6s for my 60 and those get me 6-8 min each.the rest are 4S so I fly my 42 Peaks, 48 MXS and EDFs on those to fill the time. Speaking of which. Gotta fly again.

    Sitting here at the field in the car to warm up (underdressed)! Wishing I had my 78 done. Gusting to 25, 48" planes upside down to keep from blowing away. Trying to practice IMAC and wind corrections with the 60 extra. Will post some pics today of the vinyl job on the 78 for scrutiny! Should...

    Way to go guys! I've been doing demos at my daughters school in the after school enrichment (STEM) program with my crack yak, sim and statics. I let them all fly a little Vapor around the gym and they were all really engaged. Gave the teacher an AMA package with foam plate glider and tutorial...

    Strange, I must have unsubscribed and I couldn't find it. I didn't really think you would close it with all the good info in there. Hey, Josh and I are trying to figure out a creative place to put my 3DRCFORUMS.COM decal on my 78 to be "subtle" for IMAC!!! Hahaha Those black boxes under the...

    Hey Hone, where did the 78 extra thread go? Can't find it. I wanted to pick up with mine. Just finished the vinyl! Doing the servo setup and the engine this week.

    Jacob, First off congrats on the success in High School. You are definitely increasing the size of your "opportunity bucket". Also I agree with Snowdog, take the AP to "AP" and gain "credit" not grades. The key is getting the greatest amount of education in the shortest time. Those, like...

    It seems for the general RC enthusiast "plus" the TH type foamies are the fun, backyard/ practice planes, the 48" are the "first balsa and fun huckin" plane. The 60" is a easily transported "convenient" flying plane with similar characteristics to larger airframes. The 30-35 cc seems to be a...

    78'' Extra

    Man that stinks. Cracked head? I assume the dead stick went without incident. Good luck. Part of the game with any of this stuff. We run it pretty hard. My DLE should arrive tomorrow. The vinyl is going on but I have to get Santi to redo one star (I got dupes for the sfgs). Not worried, he...

    Doing some vinyl tonight. First time with "real vinyl" so I'm starting with the sfgs. The Hover 20x6 cf looks very nice. Should have the engine Tuesday!
