    Favorite Aerobatic RC Airframe (Style not Brand) - POLL

    I voted Slick. I have flown 2 of them from different manufacturers and they all fly just amazing. There's TONS of side area on the fuselage, no knife edge coupling, extremely good characteristics in high alpha, they roll clean and true, hover extremely well, it's overall a fantastic airplane...

    Power systems/ Hitec A9?

    I believe the 7980's are just a hair larger because it's a beefier servo. Needs just a little bit of extra room inside. For future notes for all: Hitec HS5XXX and HS7XXX servos: 24 spline Hitec HS8XXX and HS9XXX servos: 25 spline

    Aerobeez 70″ Slick PRO Step By Step Build Guide

    I am currently using the stock HD long arms that are included with the 7954's- they're the fatter ones. As far as a push/pull setup, I contemplated it but ultimately stuck with pull/pull cables to keep the build relatively stock. There is plenty of space in the huge battery tray to move the pack...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I'm waiting until it's time to hit the sack. That stuff knocks me out in 10 minutes. As an update I was able to apply ice and reduce the swelling (after trying all day). Was able to ride around for a few minutes on the motorcycle before my hand felt funny again.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    It is SO much fun!!!! The barn door flaps really stop it quick. Aerobatic, gentle, just a total blast. Won't do much 3D and barely has the power to hover, but I did get it to harrier in the 6-7mph headwinds we had today. -------------- My other new toy is ready to fly!!!
