    Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

    Weighed my 100cc Pilot yak one day, it came out at about 36lb I think on a foot scale. Probably not super precise but it gives you an idea. The airplane flies light as a feather though. The only thing that I can get rid of to save more weight is the ProFlow cans, swap to mufflers- I could also...

    First major storm of the season rolled through last night. Was just chilling on my front porch, checking out the lightning in the distance when I was simultaneously blinded and deafened within the same second :veryshocked: If this is any indicator for the rainy season here... There won't be...

    Santee actually got a nasty power outtage last night. If all of this hoopla about El Nino is true then our winter flying season may be very short!!

    Well we had our first 'big' rain of the season last night, with a big side of thunder and lightning. One bolt hit so close that I was simultaneously blinded and deafened for a solid minute :confused: Looks like it may be getting very close to build season for us..

    Soloshot anybody? Anyone, anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

    Yeah I think our airplanes are probably at the very extreme of what it can do, stuff like bicycles, snowboarding, surfing, etc. that's what it was really meant to do. Unless your Tavis and fly low and slow in circles then I don't think this is really for us.

    Not giant scale

    Our HS-35HD is a tiny guy too... HSB-9370TH for comparison.

    Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

    Not quite sure you need almost 1000 oz/in of CONSTANT torque on the elevator, one 9380 is almost overkill.... :oblong::cool:

    White Rose of course! @Vern.Smith makes too good of a product to consider something else.

    Another battery setup question

    Your question is far too vague to give an answer, we would need a lot more details about the airplane before we can even begin to steer you in the right direction.

    Hairy flight this morning with the 107" pilot yak. I was completing the top of a rolling loop when the airplane suddenly went haywire full throttle :eek: Airplane was also funky to control. Managed to get it back down and did an inspection, found out that the ground wire broke off of my fromeco...

    Whelp, looks like another work day at the club. Getting rid of our old hodge podge shed for something a lot sturdier. Means no flying today :(

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    It utilizes these colorless, tasteless, and odorless fuel molecules known as 'electrons'. :epic: I actually brought both the 70" Slick out and the 107" Yak 54 out. First time I've done that in eons. I HAD video of the Yak, looks like it magically vanished.... :oblong::(:eek:
