    3dhs 41" Edge

    I also have strips of LEDs in white and green. I could make my own light kit for it. The aurora kit would go nice on my EPP Edge.

    3dhs 41" Edge

    I really should. That genesis would fit it real nice, wouldn't it?

    3dhs 41" Edge

    I figured my motor issues out and had a blast with mine tonight. I flew it until I was flying a shadow. Wish I had lights on it, lol.

    3dhs 41" Edge

    I'm currently having issues with the motor on mine but I completely agree with you. This is a great little airplane.

    Oh no! I was stuck in traffic! Congrats on 32. I had to pick my jaw up off the floor when I saw that.

    Discussion Long term planning: Getting into gas

    My naked Extra is a Phoenix Models Extra 330s that I bought off of tower when I got back into flying after finishing school. I hadn't drank the 3D look aid yet so I powered it with a glow engine and it flew like a glow sport plane. I recently converted it to a DLE 20 and it's a whole different...

    My new 72" 3DHS Extra 330

    Also, try a rx from another model. See if it experiences the same problems. If it doesn't, send the problem to Spektrum to be checked out. Also check your rx pack voltage. A lot of link issues can stem from low voltage issues.

    Help me choose!

    I have some time to decide. I'm learning the ins and outs of my Phoenix 63.5" Extra. It harrier rolls like crazy. Super stable and quick. I'll also have some time on a 71" Slick soon. A club member is finishing his up and I've been helping him with it. He tends to let me fly his stuff a lot.

    Help me choose!

    I've just finished converting my Phoenix Extra to 20cc gas. Now that its done, I am thinking of a 30cc 3DHS airframe. I have their 41" Edge and I love it so its bigger brother the 74" Edge is definitely an option. But I also like the way the Extras and Slicks fly. I have some time to decide...

    Knife Edge tips.

    So in my progression of learning 3D I'm getting a lot better with my harrier and I'm working on inverted harrier. I'm playing with rollers too. My next task will be to work on my knife edge. What are some tips that some of you have?

    Expo

    Joe, I've found with my planes that when I use too much expo the difference between the center and endpoints is so drastic that it's hard to be precise enough to not over correct. Too little expo and I'm having trouble with my planes being twitchy. My question is how do you know what amount of...
