    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    @Terryscustom I am wondering about the durability especially on something like a prop. I know you are just getting started but, any experiences on something like that? They do look awesome.

    IMAC Double Build, Carden Pro 124" Extra 300 40%

    Hey Cam, Thanks for sharing those pictures! It is giving me ideas on strengthening the LX to eliminate any flex from the fuselage :) Where do you get your cf rod from? Local hobby shop or online?

    GP 88 Evo thread

    I am using a 176EVO in my 330LX and it is unbelievably smooth. My DLE-170 is fairly smooth in my 42% Edge but, nowhere as smooth as the 176EVO and the power is PHENOMINAL!!!!!! I am assuming the 88 will be of the same caliber seeing as how it is half of the 176 :)

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I pulled the 330 into the shop and added the temp sensors for the Jeti telemetry. I had an EagleTree system in the plane before the radio switch. It will be nice to have the temps on the screen of the tx. I have the temps being read to me every 30 seconds until I am more comfortable that the...

    I got started with Airtronics back in 91 and have had Hitec and Futaba since but, always came back to Airtronics. Finally came to a point where I outgrew the Airtronics radio and went to Jeti.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    The 176EVO is a BEAST!!! I was talking with Ken a couple weeks ago and told him I had about 12 flights on it and was really surprised at the amount of power and he just laughed and said wait until you see what happens in about 3 more flights. Every flight during the competition this weekend that...

    Links to IMAC 2016 Known Sequences

    This is one of the best things you can do next to going to a contest! I flew all year last year in Basic and I could fly the sequences just fine but, didn't know why I was getting dinged on some of the maneuvers that I thought looked great, so I asked one of the intermediate pilots that had...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Went to the first IMAC contest this weekend in El Dorado, AR. Had a blast! Field was one of the tightest I have flown at as far as contests go and I went from Basic last year to Intermediate this year. Between engine issues, which finally got resolved about 2 weeks before the contest, and...

    WOW! I was hoping to be able to sell my 5 month old SD-10GS with some 8 channel FHSS-1 and some 10 channel FHSS-3 rx's but, I don't think anyone is going to want to buy something that they can't get repaired when the time comes. I just switched to a Jeti DS-14.
