    Spent 3 hours at the field today......on a riding mower! I was the ONLY one there too. :sadface: All this rain we have been having is making the grass grow incredibly fast. We have a paved runway but everything else is green and looking good for the weekend. Now if the winds will just lay...

    RedwingRC 50cc 330sc Build Log!

    Beautiful airframe Mike. My RedwingRC 50cc YAK was a nice build. And the DLE 55RA has been easy to start and ultra reliable.

    Open invite to anyone that wants to come down here and escape the heat. For now our temps are in the upper 80s but we are a bit humid which is unusual for San Antonio. July and August will most likely be hotter though. Don't worry about bringing a plane, you can thrash the Yak or Decathlon...

    Welcome to Texas. Yeah, our weather has been more like Florida lately. Very humid. It will change back to just being hot though.

    More than likely. They make most of the Fun Fly weekends. And the wife is learning to fly.

    That is the other reason I picked the 5th for the maiden. Our club actually has a professional photographer as a member. He captures the memories. Let me see if I can get a link added to this. I love this shot he did for our newsletter. OK, I couldn't get the newsletter to work, but this...

    Fireworks aren't allowed in San Antonio either so all the firework stands are right on the edges of town. We are way wetter this year than in years past so I have a doubt fires will be much of an issue but some dolt will figure out a way to catch their house on fire. Special Fun Fly on Sunday...

    I've mounted a DLE 60 twin under the cowl. :facepalm:

    A small area on the turtle deck but that was about it. I did go over the whole plane and tighten it up though. Sitting in the sun here will make them look like a raisin pretty quick. This is the orange Edge 540 and I bought the decal set that looks like the covering is peeling off and there...

    July 5 is my target date to maiden my Aero-Works 50cc Edge 540. I could have it ready for this weekend but the club is having a big shindig on the 5th so I will take it out then.

    Nice! I love the honeycomb boxes RedwingRC uses. Great looking airframe Mike.

    Happy Father's Day to you too Mike. Had a great day at the field until the rains came.

    Just to give you some enticement Mike. Instead of sticking a DLE 55RA in the nose of your new bird. Go with the 60 Twin. Looks great when you look in from the front through the cowl cheeks. :)

    Sweet! I am sensing a build thread in the near future! This your first Redwing airframe?

    Flew both days. Yesterday was perfect, a little crosswind but not bad at all. Today had the threat of rain all day and was blowing pretty good. About 12:30 the thunderstorms ran us off. I did a video on the drive home. Had the wipers on high and they weren't keeping up with the rain. I...

    How well do you like your Spektrum Transmitter?

    The DX8 has been a great transmitter for me and I still use it for many of my planes. When I built my Decathlon I ran out of channels on the DX8 and invested in the DX9 because others at the field had them and were liking theirs. Being able to add telemetry and have a wireless buddy box so my...
