@ChickenBalls since I am such a "noob" on this and it may help others(Yes guys I still run dual nimh's on some of my birds) what smartfly system do you suggest, recommended vendor, types of lipo's etc,. As our aussie/mexican friend in Tucson Az says "mucho gracious". :big-grin:

Just my $0.02, but a fartfly system isn't needed with modern electronics. Especially in a 50cc, you want to save as much weight as you can. Just plug the 2s lipo voltage directly into the rx and then to your servos.

who wants to start the how to survive the drive to Nall thread? I have a 25 hour drive ahead of my:cautious:

I would love a 25 hour drive. If that's what I had I would go straight threw. I have 4 days 12-13 hours and a half day. We leave on Sunday May 3rd to get there by Thursday if we don't have any problems. Then I have to turn around and do it going home. It's a three week event for me and almost $3k in gas. But I love doing it every year:)

Man that sucks...no other clubs in your area you could join? You can't be the only one not happy with their BS. If others complain about these
th
then have a Coup d'etat...
Sounds like that's probably going to happen this November. But that's a long way off. There is another club even closer to me that I was in for 15 years, but the runway is tiny and it's really full of fogs.
