    Older 3W and DA for First 40%er

    I have purchased the majority of my engines used. Multiple 3W 106's, 3W 150TOC and GP 176EVO and they have all ran great. Bought a new DLE-170 and luck of the draw, after about 4 gallons of 32 to 1 redline on 91 octane real gas, started having issues with it going lean after the 3rd flight of...

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

    I used a medium ca with kicker. The medium ca doesn't tear up the black foam :-)

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

    That was there when I bought the plane. It looks like it is just a plastic stick on covering.

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

    Had to redo the baffling onthe 330LX. 2 of the glue joints let loose after 4 flights so, I pulled the old baffling out and put in new. I did a lot of re-enforcements along the way to prevent flex in the sides and top. Hope this stays together or I will have to build duct work from 1/8th inch ply...

    May I ask why you were using Excel instead of a database such as Access? Excel is designed to crunch numbers even though it will store records like you were doing, that is not its primary function in life. The database will allow you to search for things a lot easier and also generate any number...

    Check out the battery holders from Secraft at Espritmodels http://www.espritmodel.com/battery-tray-holder-aluminum-with-velcro-v2-s-90x47mm-13g.aspx I have the large ones in the LX and they are awesome! Real easy to remove the batteries for charging.

    Cam, Why not leave the screws through the blind nuts while you glue the inside pieces on and then just unscrew them after it has set up? You could put some vasoline or light oil on the screws so the epoxy won't stick to them also.

    jeti DS 16 thread

    Not familar with conditional mixing but, it sounds like you may have forgot some logic to tell the tx to only turn on the flight mode if the 3 position switch is in the low rate position. Just my thoughts from a programming perspective :-)

    DLE 170 dead cylinder and piston

    She is ready to go! Fully baffled to boot! The engine sticks out about 1/4" further than the dle did so I may be a touch nose heavy compared to how the plane was setup with the dle in it. Thank you @Terryscustom for the awesome baffling video. I had never thought of using foam and ca to put it...
