    Cool The I'm going out flying thread 2017

    You guys missed a hell of an awesome weekend here in San Diego!!! Not a cloud in sight the whole time and awesome weather for flying. Burned a bunch of gas and flew a lot of airplanes, guys from as far as South Dakota, Washington, Utah, etc. all came down to fly and thrash their toy airplanes. I...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    There are a lot of guys that make the argument that a 120cc airplane should be in the high 20's. My Edge is something like 25lb and I can honestly say I wish it was heavier, tumbles take a LOT of coaxing just to get it to ball up (I.E. crankshafts, upline spins, etc.) otherwise it just snaps and...

    Didn't manage to get any pictures from today so here's one from the TriCities Huck :) The funny thing is, though it may be a high wing Cub, the thing still throws down and tracks straight as an arrow, ZERO coupling in knife edge. Barn door flaps drop down and the thing picks up like zero...

    Test flight after rebuilding the servos was a success. Got 2 solid flights yesterday before deciding it was time to pack it up to keep it nice for the Spats Invitational in 3 weeks :) Feels much crisper now, though I forgot to match the elevator servos to each other with the programmer :oblong:

    If you hurry you could stock up on a spare, or get a kit for a winter build, both dirt cheap right now through Weekender Warehouse ;)

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Decided that it was time to rebuild the 7955's in my Yak, they have lots of play in them from flying the airplane aggressively every flight. After a small SNAFU I put new cases and bearings on all 6o f them and put 2 back into my stabs last night. Everything was testing fine until I went to...

    I don't think I'm really at liberty to divulge the whole situation but Joe had his hands completely full aside from ZDZ, which is partly why he passed ZDZ on.
