    The 3DRCForums -Discuss Anything Thread-

    Just read a post on FG where a guy said he was doing, "aggressive pop tops" and destroyed his 50/60cc PAU Edge 540T. If it's true, I don't think that's a very strong air frame.

    4Titude Or Fiji BottleTank

    I went the PSP route, again I don't think its fair for companies to profit from shipping. A small flat-rate box cost's $5.25 to ship. The box is free, they will send them to you for free. Priority mail tape is also free. Quote from the USPS website Priority Mail® Small Flat Rate Box 5-3/8" x...

    4Titude Or Fiji BottleTank

    I went to your website to see if you had one, but surprisingly you don't. I think as you grow, they might be somthing you are interested in offering. Thanks for the feedback on the fortitude. I think I will pass on them, not its between a WWRC and a PSP. I just don't see why shipping has to be...

    Thanks for the info. Nice gear you have there. Video work is to hard for me to do it by myself. I only do it when I have the right crew. I have a nice kit, but it is not an Inde setup. Take care, T

    4Titude Or Fiji BottleTank

    4Titude Or Fiji BottleTank. (Btw Mod's, is there a better place (Section of this forum) to ask this question?) Hi guys, I want your opinion yet again. In the past I have used the stock Dubro tanks but I like to see inside. If I go with a water bottle I can see inside, but there are several...

    3D foamy for up to 15 mph winds!

    I have flown many foamies in the wind, some do betters than others, but it just isn't as much fun with gusty wind. I will say that my stupid Popwing is the only one that is really fun the heavy winds.

    What's on your bench?

    I am going to do a 260 remake as well. I hope the effort will be worth it. I have never done any scratch build work.

    Control Arm question

    Yeah I was told a cashier will clamp it down, but I think I'll just order some ball bearing 4/40 ball ends and thread the m3 rods into them on the servo ends. I got a good deal on 7 swb arms that I'll be be able to use on my 35% project later on, foe the MSX, I will make them work. Thanks for...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    That is ridiculous.

    Control Arm question

    Ok, that sounds about like I understand it. I just remember reading somewhere that on the 83" MXS I need to use M3 to use the parts in the hardware package. I am still trying to verify this. I wish I could be certain. I have a drawer full of odds and end parts that didn't work.

    Control Arm question

    I think I know the answer, but I wanted to ask anyways. On a servo control arm, what is the benefit of a 3mm tapped hole vs a 4/40. Is it so you can screw in a standard 3mm ball end for a control rod? I have a chance to get a good deal on a set with 4/40 holes. I know a standard bolt and...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    That sucks, what caused the mid air? What's there fault of anyone? I hate when stuff like that happens, because it is completely avoidable. Also the attachments don't appear to be working on my ipad. Not sure if they are working in a PC. That is one expensive best of show award.

    Help With Motor Timing and Poor Throttle Response (Gecko 120HV)

    I know this is going to sound stupid, and you most likely already have it right, but you do have a RX battery pack powering your receiver right. You know there is no BEC in the ZTW HV ESC's. I will be honest, that got me when I first used one of these VS a Castle.

    Here is the info I just read from ABC news. Some lawsuits were filed by the AMA, UAS America, SkyPan International Inc., FPV Manuals LLC. They argued that the FAA's policy would impede many legal activities, from hobby use to research and development, as well as innovation. Basically, this...
