3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

+1 on the bicycle brackets. Just make sure you screw them into a stud.... :D

I put some foam around the brackets to cushion the leading edge of the stabs also. I noticed on my 57 Extra, without the foam, it started to very slightly indent the edge.

I hang my 60" and smaller by the stab and have done of for a long time. Home Depot is your friend

I'm sure you don't have that problem with the 57 anymore. Hehe! :banghead:

It's my first hack at designing, cutting, and applying large vinyl, but I'm really happy with how it all came out!

For my new 87" Extra:

wings and small foam planes go on a rack made from 2x4 and a 1/2" PVC pipe

for 60" or less airframes, they are mounted from the tail... a 2x4 with a 1/2" PVC pipe and foam.

for 7X" airplanes, I hang them by the landing gear using a bungee cord...

for 50CC or larger they sit on the ground or I hang them from the ceiling around the fuse using ratchet type strap ropes...

Re: 3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC thread

Thanks guys! I was inspired yesterday by all the pics and cleaned out the hangar. I'll get some after pics up when I get home from the field. Hung some peg board and think I can get 5 real planes in there.. Really need to sell off the others aka non 3dhs ones. If you know anyone in ny, pa, nj who is looking for glow send them my way.. Might have to hit the probro board to sell off the pa bad boy.

Anyways I'm at the field with one flight on the 42 slick and guess what? Yep grounded!
Kids are playing ball on the soccer fields which means we need a spotter and no one else is here yet. Hope another member shows up soon so I can maiden the 65 Vyper.. Also brought the 58 edge along for dome flying.

On another note.. DALE @ EPBUDDY - I love you man! Ordered Batts on Wednesday at 11pm and paid for express shipping, they arrived Friday less than 48 hours after I ordered.

I gotta whole bunch of 6s now to make the bigger birds happy... Just hope I can get some flights in before the wind gets obnoxious :)

Hope you guys who can are out at the field too.
