    GSN GIVE-A-WAY Hangar 9 35% Extra 300X Assembly

    The polished turd was maidened yesterday. I bought this labor day of 2016 and honestly was just so dissapointed in the quality I've sat on it this long. It does fly well. The DA120 is a perfect match, but this will be the last H9 plane I buy. They used to have really good products but they're...

    SOLD! Lanier 40% Sukhoi Kit built ARF Just airframe 475.00

    It was really too windy but I just had to test fly it. I got two solid flights tonight. No one else out so no video. CG is now about spot on. Had to hold just a touch of down inverted. Still a new motor so I hope power picks up some with break in. Muffler is really quiet in the air and you...

    Do you have your vent line looped up around the back of the tank? Years ago I thought my engines used a bunch of gas till Jason Noll showed me to loop my vent line.....

    I just got my DA 120 back from DA with all the updates completed. Maybe I'll find some motivation to finish this POS 1,100.00 dollar plane..... I had them put the red carb plate on my engine and I know they did the carb mod as well as changing out the pistons, etc.

    I made a cf plate on my DA150 in my Sukhoi to help the airflow over the carb plate issue. I spaced it with short pieces of brass tubing and some longer bolts. Runs well after the MOD.
