    On a lighter note, THE WEEKEND IS ALMOST HERE!!!!!!!!! Getting out early today, so I'm going to use that time wisely and do some tweaking to the airplanes :)

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    It really annoys me when people have to resort to violence like vandalism just to get their agenda across. For me, it turns me off entirely to it and actually makes me take the opposite side.

    3D Shop Construction

    Ouch, that sucks man!!!!!! Hope you heal soon. I pretty much exclusively ride 3 wheelers now because of the stability and lightweight aspect. Sounds counter-intuitive considering all of the media hype that was force fed upon people way back when but I've never rolled a trike. Looped it in a...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I had a vegan try to argue with me the other day about how eating meat was wrong and instead of me going to the store and buying a freaking great steak that I should instead just eat my 7 animals. Last I checked, dogs or mini horses didn't produce steak? I asked why he didn't eat his grass or...

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    Well we could make the HSB 9380 push 800oz if we wanted to, but the case, geartrain, and wiring wouldn't handle the loads so we made it more conservatively powered. A standard or coreless digital will slow down as the servo arm nears its outer control throw limit because the loads tend to be...

    Reza has been here for a week and he's already giving stuff away! RED LINE OIL!

    There's a reason a lot of experienced motorcycle riders prefer to run Redline, the stuff is seriously magic in a bottle!! I ran it in my 2 strokes and never had a problem, and last time I was inside that engine I saw nothing but cleanliness all around.

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    Well keep in mind these tests are to show what the servo can put out in a controlled environment using what is basically a standardized test. The torque/speed values are based off of a 1" arm. Obviously if you add in something like a 2" arm, the values will diminish. However, being that the HSB...

    My buddy is helping work the event with the Weak Signals club, not sure if he'll be at the indoor fly. Be sure to say HI to him, name is Anthony.

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    The poster of the video stated he was using a power supply set to 8 volts, so he had plenty of juice going to them. Also, if you'll notice, the servo mount is moving. The servo is holding its position, but the mount is a little sketchy. If it were me, I'd have hard mounted that servo, rather...

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    The NEU motor inside of Hitec HSB servos is so incredibly efficient that it doesn't even struggle to make the maximum rated torque. We could make the 9380 pump out over 800 oz of torque if we wanted to, but the case and gears won't take it, let alone the wiring for the current loads. It's...

    I like to run 2 of them. Double the capacity, fly all year without recharging.

    Blenderm tape and Welder glue

    Yup, blenderm is a very specific tape, 3M is the only company that makes it (as far as I know) and you can generally find it at medical supply stores. It has a smooth texture on the top surface and is relatively stretchy, but super stick on the other side. You can get a box of 12, 1" x 5yd rolls...
