    Failsafe

    Yup I always set my failsafe to 0% throttle. And I never rely on failsafe. Should something happen in the air, the airplane is farkled anyways. Failsafes really only come into use on the ground in the event someone neglects to turn their airplane off first.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I don't miss the 72 days. I like the simplicity of 2.4, plus the features modern 2.4 radios have. I don't think I'll ever use more than half of what my 8FGS has...

    glow pilot

    I remember flying glow... The sound, the smell, the disgusting oily cleanup afterwards because you had to run the engine so rich to keep it from leaning out in the air... Ahh yes.

    Snapasaurus - The Facts.

    Snapasaurus is like a diamond. He can't be destroyed and nobody questions his value. When life gives Snapasaurus lemons he makes grape juice and no one questions how he did it. They just sit there drinking the best grape juice ever. Snapasaurus can make a tempurpedic bed rock...
