What!? I love all my planes! No selling any more!

Dwight's got wamsy's old 89" and he's not getting rid of his favorite! I already tried! Maybe he'll want 2!

Haha, I don't need to planes that have been in the water. Although my 89 has been flown hard, it still flys amazing and is my favorite. But of course I haven't flown my 104 yet.

Hey everybody! Super glad to see people taking about the 103" & for finding the new forum!

Love my 103" & a Hacker A-100 flies it quite nice!

Jim/Joe, what are you running for rudder servo's? Is a single 157 enough? This rudder seems a bit smaller than the 104 rudder but I'm blowing that one back with a single 157 and plan to double it up on that bird.
On my previous 103 I had two 7955's on HV and it seemed ok but planning on 157's on this one anyway, just not sure of 1 or 2 :)

thx,,

I'm planning on using a single 172 on my rudder. (pretty much the S-bus version of the 157, I believe)

I've heard this is ok, so I'm interested as well.

Here are the different setups I have used on the 103 and 104 with no issues.

1 HS7950 (6.8 Volts and straight 2s)
1 Futaba 9157 (6.0 volts)
1 BLS157 ( Straight 2s)

I didn't notice any blow back on either airframe with the servos listed above. My favorite setup is the one BLS157.
