    Futaba 8FG dual rate program

    I have a question that I am either having a brain fart with or can't find what I want to do.  On my ailerons I have left on ch1 and right on ch6. So adjusting dual rate all I have is "aileron" which controls both servos and I can control both travel up and down but "not" for each servo.  So I...

    Rudder servo arm

    So I use a 4" offset SWB arm for my rudder and as many they are threaded for the ball link screws.  I am curious how you guys have the screw setup, do you just thread the screw with blue loctite to the servo arm or do you screw plus use a nylon lock nut on the back too?  I have been using the...

    Secraft Wire Tensioners

    Is anyone using these or similar product on your rudder cables?  I was curious if you ever put them on a plane that was already set up and if the extra turnbuckle provides the extra length that you can still use your existing wire?

    Measuring throws on control surfaces

    Just curious to see what you guys are doing to measure your throws.  I have used simply gauges like 3DHS provides and sells, iPhone angle apps, home made protractors but mostly I have settled in on the throw meter Aero-Werks sells.  Pretty simple to use and quick to read.

    12S power systems ideas and options

    12S has always been my choice for when the larger Laser or MXS came out. In part because I have a lot of 6S packs but mostly because I can fly everyday at work. It is a long drive to get to a field I can fly my gas. That is why I sold my DA60 Extra. I reconsider the though of gas because...

    I was sharing this on RCG and though some might benefit from it here. I not only hate how slow the discharge mode is on chargers and from what I hear are not good for the charger with the high heat build up I tried this out as I had the bulbs and wow it works great. It is based on the fact...
