3dhs 92" Edge 540

That's some healthy rpm Gary.

Do you lean the idle screw or high end screw to remove the mid range burble?

I only got one flight on her today Roger, and I leaned me engine on the high needle 1/16 of a turn. It definitely helped a little bit, but the mid range burble is still there, but working is way out.

Here is a a few photos of the damage from today's one wheel landing:

Looks like its come out pretty good for what happened.

Probably not too big a repair job.

Thats no good gyro, use the same set up i did to fit wheels & you will never have a wheel come off again. I think post 8 on my thread shows you how mine was done

taking from my post about wheels


got my wheels on & i don't use the axels supplied as wheels fall off , i use a high tensile cap screw with nylocks as its very reliable for 40% so im going with that set up on the 92''

Flew again today... And as usual for me, lost a wheel on my first flight of the day. Luckily, I ordered a drill press last Friday night, so I'll cotter pin from here on out.

Landed the plane ok, but the gear stuck in the grass, and damaged at least the sheeting around the gear, and possibly the landing gear plate. Need to dissect and investigate.

Good news was 7500+ rpm in flight on the Falcon 24x10, after leaning a little. Still a healthy mid range burble, so I still need to lean so more.

Assuming you're using spektrum telemetry for in flight rpm.. Care to share your setup? I've seen a lot of concern over ensuring you don't have connections that will render the optokill or I bec useless because of creating path from ignition to rx.

Nice job, Gary. Can you get a weight measurement before putting it at risk again?
