    Guys I acquired my first gasser, I was just looking for a motor, and ended up with 2 huge planes. I was after the DA-50 and got a Pilot Yak 54 RTF, as well as a 35% extra 260. I am so excited to fly the yak. The extra will be sold at t upcoming swap meet on Saturday.

    The EXTRA 300 EXT Build Thread

    Wow, you made my day. I have to say not only did you do an incredible job at getting my last order from you quickly, but taking your time to come here and respond to my build thread is amazing. Thanks so much for your offer to help me with my ESC/programming card. I used a 6.4 volt JR rx pack...

    The EXTRA 300 EXT Build Thread

    I just bought the 85 and programmer from Attitude a few days ago. As I said it worked fine with the 85. I will have to check it again with the 85. On a side note, for chit and giggles, I when ahead an installed the 120 HV in the plane. I used an A123 pack for the RX and when I hooked the Lipo to...

    The EXTRA 300 EXT Build Thread

    I used the same JR Flight Pack Battery to power the Programmer as I did with the 85. I used a TP 5000Mah 6S pack to power the ESC. The Programmer lights up and turns blue, but no text (kind of like if you have the signal wire backwards). I am using the short plug from the ESC to the programmer...

    The EXTRA 300 EXT Build Thread

    I hooked the 120 HV to my Programmer and All I get is a blank screen. It worked fine on the 85 Gecko. I assumed it would work the same on the 120. As for the BEC I thought it had an 8 volt BEC. Doh... Now I feel dumb, but it still wont function with the programmer. There are two leads. A long...

    The EXTRA 300 EXT Build Thread

    I was using a Thunder Power 5000mah 70C 6S pack attached to a Castle Ice 50 just to use the 5Amp BEC to center the servos so I could setup linkages. 1 or two servos was fine, three servos bad. I cant believe my Gecko 120 HV is DOA. I opened the box, soldered on the ends, hooked it to the...

    3DHS 84" Bigfoot --BUILD ONLY--

    You know this is a great write up, well done. I think this plane is amazing and if I had the cash right now, I would consider making this one of my planes.

    Hey guys I have a question. I have all of the servos installed in to the plane. I am using the ESC's BEC (5A) temaproly to set up the linkages and center the servos. A weird things happens when I hook up the two elevator servos at the same time as the rudder servo. The receiver an AR-7000...

    So at 3V it cuts your power, does it pulse it? I always run on a timer, and use those silly Lipo alarms set to 3.6v. Also I am in development of my secret weapon against Gassers that keep me grounded. More on that later ;)

    64" mxs exp

    You know the two 30c 2200mah 3s packs weigh over a pound less than the one 50c 4500mah 6s pack. I am going to have to rethink my whole battery situation. I need to determine the maximum C rating the 4315 480kv with 16x8 falcon E prop requires, and buy the actual C rating that setup requires...

    The battery slips past th firewall bulkhead into that cavity order the cowl. It balances fine, so I guess I need to buy smaller 6s packs, that battery is heavy. I have a bunch of 2200 3S packs I can use until I get new packs. GYRO what battery exactly did you use?

    64" mxs exp

    I searched this thread, but I cant find what the average AUW is for a 64" MSX. Mine is 6lbs 2oz running a 4700mah 6S 50C pack. What is the recommended weight for this plane. I think mine is a little porky at just over 6lbs.
