    Futaba 18MZ/14SG/8FG Tips and Tricks

    Fighting and fight to get elevator halves to move evenly. Pulled some older Hitecs and installed MKS 777's. Better, center is reliable as well as end points on high rates match but low and medium rates the halves are not lining up. Another issue is one side appears to drag behind some on the...

    Best size trailer?

    Guys, opinions on trailer size? I'm looking at a 6 x 12 and a 7 x 14. My F350 will pull either. I have a 35%, a 40% and will probably add another similar someday. That smaller single axle would be a lot easier to pull. Thanks

    Sport CARF Pitts - Engine Upgrade

    Finally I'm switching to modern Fromeco batteries and removing my Nimh batteries from my Yak. With the heavy 3W up front they worked well for helping with balancing. I will have to move the newer lighter batteries further back.

    Sport CARF Pitts - Engine Upgrade

    There is a thread 'elsewhere' showing cutting servo hatches for ailerons in Carf planes. Someone was doing a pretty neat job of that.
