    I have the power! ...or do I?

    Yea, I have the ignition cutoff... so the IBEC goes from the EQ6 to where the ignition battery would plug into that cutoff? What batts do you recommend?

    I have the power! ...or do I?

    I have a Hydrimax 2000mah ignition battery in my 50cc Extra 300 (which is my profile picture). What ignition batts do ya'll like?

    I have the power! ...or do I?

    Okay. Here's a photo of the EQ6 that's in it. It's the same as the one I have in my 96" Mustang with an AR8000. It says "Super Reg" but I don't know if it's turbo. It has an optical kill switch hooked up to it as well... I've never liked the idea of having my RX batts and Ignition batt as...

    I have the power! ...or do I?

    I just got my first 100cc bird for the upcoming IMAC season. I bought a PAU 35% Extra 300SP, and it.. is... gorgeous... It's built, but never been cranked or flown... Here are the specs: DA-120 Smartfly Eq6 Futuba 9157 servos on elevators and throttle JR 8711HV on rudder Here are my...

    SOLD! Giant SCALE P-51 MUSTANG READY TO FLY $750.00

    I am getting a new large IMAC plane this weekend, and could use the space. I don't need to sell this plane, but if someone wants a sturdy giant scale P-51 that's fun to fly, and more importantly ready to fly. Here it is. I will tell you the covering is a little beat up, and there are a few...

    Hauling Your Plane in a Pickup... Best Ideas? Post them here!

    Hey 2Robinhood, This is kind of what I'm thinking for the mains. Something similar. Using the strap to hold it down to the tailgate is great idea. My mains will rest on the tailgate so I was trying to figure out a way to secure a block or tie down point, so this helps a lot.

    I like the styrofoam block idea! I will definitely put something like that into service. Thanks for the idea!

    I've thought about that, but I don't think it's in the cards right now. Plus, I still need an open truck bed for ranch work, etc.

    Scale Rebirth of the GP 1/4 Scale Patty Wagstaff

    I've got an engine for it, I just need to order a kit. They're pretty popular, for good reason and out of stock! I want to do solartex and paint. I have a few full scale photos for candidates. Hopefully I'll be able to do that around late Jan - Feb. I miss having a cub. I had a 1/4 scale...

    Scale Rebirth of the GP 1/4 Scale Patty Wagstaff

    Thanks! I haven't seen Murry yet, but maybe in the next week or two we'll have some nice weather out at the field. Sunday was marginal and it actually sprinkled on me and the plane on the way home, but I HAD to go out there. You know? Good luck on the SU26! Hopefully you'll start a thread...

    Scale Rebirth of the GP 1/4 Scale Patty Wagstaff

    I agree with you. I love having unique airplanes. After getting my IMAC plane ready my next custom job, will hopefully be a Hangar 9 Super Cub. That model really looks right and I'd love to get a kit and strip it down and make it look like a bush plane.

    Scale Rebirth of the GP 1/4 Scale Patty Wagstaff

    A little update on HB-MSW. I emailed one of the pilots today with photos. Turns out, this is a club plane in Switzerland. He sent me a link to the club website, and let me tell you... they have about 8 different airplanes that they fly off of the most pristine grass strip surrounded by...

    Scale Rebirth of the GP 1/4 Scale Patty Wagstaff

    I vote "Do it!" Once I got into it, it wasn't as daunting as I first thought it was going to be and totally worth it.

    Scale Rebirth of the GP 1/4 Scale Patty Wagstaff

    Thanks everyone! I'm really excited about it. I will tell you one thing. Changing the hinges from the fiberglass tape to the Robart Pins made it a completely different airplane. When I was doing IMAC maneuvers for example, I had to make all of these little inputs to do what I wanted, and now...
