    Pilot Figures, What do you Like?

    That is true. That being said, I just spoke with him this weekend at an event in south Florida. It "seems" that he is going to be passing production along to PAU. As I spoke with Herve there at the same time, as in, we were all talking together, that seems to be the case. Look for PAU to be...

    FAA registration number decals

    I actually have all of mine marked inside the cockpits, out of sight enough for me. Electronic label maker with the info printed on it. Measures about 3/4" by 2" little decals. No big deal. On the small stuff I just put the labels inside battery hatches. I've been told some clubs are...

    FAA registration number decals

    I recommend putting the number on a microdot and locating it inside the spinner bolt. No tools to access. :laughing:

    3D Viper 120cc ARF is HERE!!!!!

    In flight I'm seeing 160-280 depending on what I'm doing fwiw. Mine is baffled and vented just like @Terryscustom but can't tell you how our tunes match up. I run a bit fat all the time by choice. I have about 3 gallons through my DA120. Falcon 29x9 prop. Weather here has been in the mid...

    3D Viper 120cc ARF is HERE!!!!!

    Yep. On my "to do list". I've got several on the shop walls of various airplanes I have or had. Usually in a nice big 20x30 canvas print. :)

    3D Viper 120cc ARF is HERE!!!!!

    DA120. Go big or go home. A buddy shot the pictures yesterday with a Canon outfitted with a 200mm lens. That tail shot was only about 10 or 15 feet in front of us so he kept backing up to get it all in the frame as the wind was gusting a bit so that rather unusual angle was made availabe. :D...

    3D Viper 120cc ARF is HERE!!!!!

    I would like to add that I tried, for one flight, the included SFGs (side force generators). While I have had a couple of aircraft that I really like their effect on (35% 3DHS Edge540), I personally found no benefit on the Viper. I sealed the holes back up on the wing tips. The airplane looks...

    Scale World Models 1/3 Super Cub Project

    Personally, I replaced both the main and tail landing gear. The front was too stiff and the back was too industrial for me. It'll do fine with both I'm sure but I replaced my main with Robart fully articulated "scale" gear and the tail wheel assembly with an old Aeroworks, 35% tail wheel...
