    Twisted Hobbys - TELINK 48" EPP Extra 330 SC

    With 32" foamies you are looking for a 24 gram motor (2204). If you run it on 3s, you wasn't a 8x4" ish prop, and on 2s a 9x4" ish prop. I have tried a 9x4 prop on 3s and it was way too much and made everything too hot. This is just what I have found, ymmv.

    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    That's strange, I use the same exact packs in the same location every time. I try to eliminate variables when I can. I wonder if the foam is changing shape due to varying temps. Also, mine was built as square as possible, and when you eyeball down the wings to the horizontal stab, it looks...

    ZDZ210 B2RV (rear carb) twin. Includes 6" CF spinner/smoke mufflers/34x14 prop/ign.

    Wow Bob, that is one helluva motor. I wish I needed that thing. It would save a ton of shipping (being in Las vegas too.. I hope you can sell it. Good Luck with your sale. BTW guys, Bob is a well known guy here in Vegas that lives and breathes RC.

    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    My setup is 3S, but I prefer a 2S. I cant get properly balanced plane with my 2S packs (350mah 2S). I get perfect Cg with my TP 480 3S packs. I do have a question, does your MXS-C couple in knife edge? Mine does, I guess I will check lateral balance. I know with the Laser, it was very forgiving...

    Skywing 32'' EPP yak55m

    Btw, upon closer inspection, that thing look extremely similar to the Twisted hobbys MSX-C.

    Skywing 32'' EPP yak55m

    I don't know what I like the best, the plane, your flying or that incredible piece of land you own. Skywing makes all sorts of cool stuff. I hear they make the EPP covered balsa planes for Aerobeez. Oh and that purple scheme is very nice. Can you do a video showing to you do that weeble...

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    I see, thanks for the clarification. Stocking small parts is huge, and doing so sets your business in a class among the leaders in the industry. The more I look at your stuff the more I want it, it's beautiful. That 123 is amazing, and that all white edge is beautiful.

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    So you have to buy replacement parts from China. I assumed that replacement parts were available from Limitless in TX (USA)

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    Remember when slipping, you have to push the nose down a little to keep from stalling.

    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    Amazing video, can you post a few close ups of your setup. I am interested in the battery placement and the actual components used to build your plane. Was that video 2s as well? Looks as if you ejected a battery in the first part of your video. Man you are one smooth pilot. How long have you...

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    If you find yourself high on a final approach, you need to forward Slip to land. It will slow the airplane way way down, and you can drop a bunch of altitude in a very short ground track distance. Did you run out of gas, or overheat and loose power?

    Aeroworks Freestyle Extra 260 QB-L

    That motor in a 78" is massive. 78" is more like a 30CC right?

    RealFlight Mobile

    I like it if you set the stick sensitivity up and set the sim to realistic, it fly's pretty good. I bought the Russian Thunder because it is the only 3D looking plane they had.

    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    It flys incredibly well. I really like it. I kind of got used to 2s on the Laser, so the 3s on the MXS-C feels a little strange. I really like this plane, it doesn't drop the nose as much inverted, so I have been having a ball attempting to do rolling harriers. I can get 10 or 12 rolls until I...

    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    Got a MXS-C for an early Father's Day gift. It took me a while to build, all foamies seem to take me forever. Nevertheless she is ready to fly. I used a T-motor AT2206 1500KV (I love the little prop adapter for DD props that come with T-Motor), hitec HS45hb for ailerons, and 2 cirrus CS-5.4's...

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    8k isn't that a ton of RPM on that prop, isn't it?. I think when you find max RPM, you should fatten it up 1/8 to 1/4 turn. But that's on the big end, how are you set on the low? I assume you are set for good transition, and again fatten 1/8. Also, there is wrap for the pipes, it helps with...

    First VPP F3P Freestyle Plane Build

    Here is the Fuse. All I can say is Fancy Foam has a huge area of opportunity on production. The milled pockets are thick and thin (Techone, and DW foamy's smoke the quality). The Face surface has all sots of little imperfections that cause the paint to not lay up properly. From a few feet away...
