    Theoretically yes. Have to make a few adjustments and clean up some slop in the head before I can be sure. Test spin ups were smooth as silk.

    My buddy had a ton of spare parts lying around. So we decided to see if we could build a functioning heli out of them and after two very long nights we succeeded! The only thing I had to buy was a tail servo. I used the same one that you'd find on a 450x so it was all of $18. He didn't have...

    Plane stand.

    I know what my next project is! Especially for my byper. The stand that came with mine doesnt fit it.

    lipo charging question 4.15 or 4.20 for max charge?

    Ill he trying this too. Given the reduced charging time, this might be worth it for that reason as well.

    3dhs 41" Edge

    I'm back and forth about putting the 103 g motor in this. Thoughts? I was going to start running smaller packs first. Also, my esc timing issue is not as serious if the motor is already under a little power before I put the throttle on. Maybe that will help with my mesh problems. I'm...

    40" EPP Edge 540 Building, Flying, and Questions

    So funny story with mine. It was amazing and flew great all last season. Tons of power on 1600 packs and I might move it to 1300 for some weight savings. Here's my problem. I think the wing or stab warped again on mine. Whenever I am flying at high speed, it hard rolls to the right and I...

    lipo charging question 4.15 or 4.20 for max charge?

    I'm a lot like Gyro. On smaller, cheaper packs, I treat them as if they're liquid fuel. I use them and beat on them and really only concern myself with being safe with them. Luke's RC (Glacier distributor) is 2 miles down the road and if I need a pack I can always run in real quick and get...

    My willpower is constantly challenged because my girlfriend lives 2 miles from Lukes RC brick and mortar store.

    One has, the other two haven't. The one that was in a crash works fine. I have since been flying it in my 20cc Extra for a full season now with no issues.

    Wattaplane/Skywing 48" EPP/PLY hybrid Slick

    Sarah still doesn't know about the Byper. She hasn't come to visit since I picked it up. Before you judge me you should know that I got her two dozen chocolate covered strawberries for Vday.

    Lucky guy! I told Sarah that I wanted plane stuff for Valentine's Day and she rolled her eyes. She smacked me when I mentioned heli stuff as a counter offer.
