    RedwingRC MXS-Bach

    Cool looking plane. The Demo video is nice. That prop, is that a RWRC prop? It looks a lot like a Vess, but not sure. Good luck with all your new design, it should be a winner in the RW line up.

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    That side mount is cool. I need to find some spacers and longer servo screws. My elevator servos are so beefy that they touch each other (bottom out on each other) in the tail. I need 1/4 spacers on each side and 1/4" longer than usual servo mount screws. I might just use some 1/4" long carbon...

    Nice job on the servo bell-crank job. What kind of spacers did you use to secure the Throttle servo. I noticed, its not mounted in the factory provided location. Also whats that wing nut onthe side of the plane.

    Mark everything with some white paint if you have to take the throttle linage down. This way it will go back easy. I just finished my Throttle linage and it took a while to get it right, so I know what you mean. Look forward to the pics and parts list. AKf

    Joe Smith quits 3DHS!

    Great story man. I love the way my EF planes fly. They are at the very top. Every business, I mean every single one has aeras of opportunity. Business never stays the same, it is always changing, and to be the best you have to change with it. One day Ill make it to Nall and look forward to...

    Congrats on the maiden! Is the roll rate fast enough for you? I know you are the King of fast rollers. I cant wait to see some clean vid of this plane in your hands. You also need a chest rig go pro pointed at your sticks (overlaid on the flight vid) so we can see what you do as you wring out...

    That 90° linkage setup for the choke is awesome. Mine is set up that you reach through the cowl hole, so I just might change it from the start. Joe let me know here you get the bell crank and the stand off to make the linkages. Thanks

    Since I had a brand new Hitec HS-5955TG sitting on the shelf, I used it for the throttle. It isn't quite as fast or strong as yours, but it's a good servo.

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    I hope mine is at 14 lbs or darn close to it. Jeff from EF said he was at 14 with a 1/2 a tank of gas. The stock muffler and two screws has to weigh less than the ESpipe, header screws and bracket system for the pipe. If Jeff is at 14, is there really 1lb difference in a Pitts muffler and an...

    So he and have one thing in common, 1%er. I was one for 12 years of my life, but that is a whole different chapter.. ;)

    Thanks for the info. The HS-7950 is 450 oz of torque, a little overkill for a throttle right :)

    Twisted Hobbys / RC Factory's Brand New 36" EPP FLASH NG, "Official Build Thread"

    I am flying the stock twisted power combo the ESC is a 12a, the motor is the crack series 2206 1450kv on a 3s 600mah crack lipo, swinging a 8040 direct drive prop. 9mins of hard 3d is no problem, and it's the longest flying foamie I own. I am serious when I say, it's the closet thing to a small...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Did you see the video above with Jase flying Jeff's plane? I fly a 22x8 on my DA50 it clears the ground just fine. I'll just say one can easily justify anything. You can justify to do the plane with a 50 or not. The fact is the plane flys well with a da50, the Pitts is a few oz heavier, but you...
