    @Krzy4RC, I don't see you registered for this one Rich. Are you going to be able to make it?

    2nd Annual Shreveport IMAC competition

    I just looked and with 17 already registered I think it will be an early start and a late run :) Sounds like a day of fun in the sun!

    2nd Annual Shreveport IMAC competition

    Make sure you have the AC running in the club house Cam :) Pilot meeting at 7:30 wheels up at 8? May need to start that early to get 4 in depending on the number of pilots :) I am already registered.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    For a minute it looked like a free style routine :) but, the rest of the scores weren't to bad considering my hands were shaking worse than my first contest last year. I went home and flew it on the simulator and I am pretty sure I figured out what happened. I probably stayed in the rudder just...

    Friday Coverage (Day 1)

    @gyro this picture says it all! Take a look at the covering on the belly of the fuselage. The twisting made me look further and you can see that the front of the plane is AHEAD OF THE TAIL in the roll!!! You can't time pictures like this one. It should be a reminder that if you are doing some...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Got back from an IMAC contest in Broken Arrow, OK this afternoon. Had a blast and am VERY HAPPY that my 330LX is still in one piece! My unknown today didn't go so well. One would think that a simple split-s with 3/4 roll followed by an opposite 3/4 roll on exit wouldn't be that much of an issue...

    I guess I should kick the other two in and get some real power :) Already looking at the 224 for a possible future project :) Can't imagine what kind of power it has with what the 180 is putting out :) I have a total of 20 flights on the engine and I still land with a big grin on my face every...

    Hey Rob, @stangflyer, here is a link to the maiden video. Not sure if you have seen it yet or not. This is with the 29x12EVO 3 blade that has stayed in place since the initial run :) Just some mild IMAC type flying.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Went out last night and tonight for a total of 7 more flights on the 330lx with the zdz180. What a monster :-) I think I may have figured out a secret to starting the engine tonight. 3 flips with the choke, turn the choke off and 3 more flips and we are running. Will see if that same procedure...
