    Your Opinion-This is not a "Which radio is best" thread!!!

    Maybe I'm lucky, my stock pack lasts me at least a dozen flights and still shows 65% in it. But I'll be switching to lipo, especially since Chad has one that fits!!

    GiantScaleNews is PROUD to Welcome Reza Gholamipour!!

    I have heard nothing but praise from it. And the Pilot, and the Extreme Flight. Makes choosing an airframe a difficult decision!! Maybe I should just get all 3 :banana-dance:

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

    I dunno about the hammer analogy... A LiPo can take quite a bit of abuse :laughing:

    GiantScaleNews is PROUD to Welcome Reza Gholamipour!!

    I'd say 100cc seems to be the most popular size. I'd be curious to see how some of the popular 100CC ARF kits stack up against each other in terms of quality of kit construction, covering, included hardware and its quality, and of course how the airplane flies. Such as the 100CC Hanger 9 Extra...

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

    Simple reasons: 1. I have never had any sign of a legitimate reason to not trust a LiPo. 2. Get the most power out of the servo. 3. Less stuff between battery and servos.

    Real Flight 7.5...

    The stock 3D airplanes suck. I have a Yak 54 100CC me and Terry modified and I put a GSN custom scheme on it that flies just awesome. @Bartman has the files he can send to you :)

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    This could be true.... If he's going to use 5645's then I'd use something like a Castle BEC pro and adjust the voltage to 7.5v. Saves weight still.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Just my $0.02, but a fartfly system isn't needed with modern electronics. Especially in a 50cc, you want to save as much weight as you can. Just plug the 2s lipo voltage directly into the rx and then to your servos.

    The post your setups thread

    A lot of newbies have been emerging all over the place lately, especially with big airplanes. Why not setup a thread to give them some guidance on what people use? Real simple, just post the electronics that are in your airplane. I'll go first: Extreme Flight 88" Yak 54 Electric -Hitec...

    CA SB271- BAN all RC at schools!

    This topic isn't about the discussion of carrying Armament (despite the fact that it is your undeniable right to). It's about why we would ban all flying unmanned objects in and around schools. With how vague this bill really is, it would mean that frisbees, baseballs, paper airplanes...
