    Azhar Osmanbhoy owner of Aztech Aeromodels Tribute

    My story. I was an early adopter for one of the Seacraft V3 pumps some time last year. I received and used the pump for a few weeks then I got a call from Azhar, he said he sent me a new pump and gasket set and it was in the mail I told him I did not have a leak or any problem. He did not...

    Wow...thanks 3DMIKE !! I have been getting into the editing side. This one was a basic templet from Apple Movie. The one I am getting into is Adobe Premier Pro. It is some cash but with Adobe After Effects you can do some real professional looking movies. Cause these products are used to...

    3D Hobbyshop 106" Edge 540

    The latest from this past weekend. We had 0 mph on Saturday morning. This is very rare down here in south Texas. So I took advantage of the low wind and got the Edge low. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yd2cmJrM86c

    3dhs 92" edge 540 !!!

    That plane was my initial inspiration on the 92". It lost its life last year, but lives on in a 106" version.

    3D Hobbyshop 106" Edge 540

    I have been playing around with Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects lately and created the attached movie from some Valentines day flight footage of the Edge540. The GoPro Hero4 takes super clear and sharp video with 4K settings but this camera is not made for capturing anything more than 50...

    The stock scheme did not last long....The BULLS are back!!! I have about 10 flights and almost 2 gallons so far. No question this is the best plane I have flown. With the instant power of the DA it flies like a massive PA Addiction X with gyro, amazing how these larger planes just hang in...

    Adding Zivko Edge 540 to wing bottom.... With a white plane in a over cast sky the more black on the bottom helps....

    3D Hobbyshop 106" Edge 540

    Thanks. I snuck it out on Sunday as well and after some careful revisiting to the elevator matching the plane became a dream. It was doing knife edge like it had a gyro...Amazing....I love it.

    3D Hobbyshop 106" Edge 540

    Maiden was a good and uneventful. My CG came in a 5.75" with no fuel so did not move anything around. Some coupling in knife edge. Rolling to right but also felt a little roll to right in level flight so may need to double check Ailerons and elevator matching. Throttle curve was a bit soft...

    Yea I did the Bulls on my white 92" with inspiration from Supatims 92 last year. I am not sure if it is just the size or indoor light but the silver stripes pop a lot more and while I will make this my plane at some point I want to live the stock look for a bit.

    Sorry I keep posting but wanted to show you guys the servo extensions I made using the Hansen Hobbies 1x6 and 1x3 connectors. A little work to make but makes it super simple to connect the two servos for Ailerons at once. The rubber grommets are not shown in picture but are in place on each...

    Finally DONE! This thing is amazing in size. Pictures do it no justice. It truly is an amazing looking aircraft. I am still playing around on the vinyl locations. I will most likely get a handful of flights before I cover up the clean lines...

    Thanks for the tip Gary...With these Secraft rear rudder setups you have the choice to space everything out or use both cotter pin holes. The cotter pins are loosey goosey and practically fall out. So I am set up now with two of the cotter pins. With that said, I am getting some squeaking...

    Something I think every kitchen should be equipped with...A BIG Edge.... Last night I completed the rudder setup and I think this is one of the best Rudder setups I have done...Also neat and clean...I am happy with it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znbdDZgOuEw

    BPS00-3W is hand written on label. I think..see for yourself...Engine building trumps Penmanship I just called DA direct when out of town and said DA-120 drilled 5" TureTurn back plate....took my address and CC number. When I got back in town it was at the house. I freaked a bit when I saw...

    The FingGiants forum has tons of horror stories about twins and carbon back plates throwing a prop or loosing spinner into wings along with years of opinions. From what I gather it is a chain reaction. The most credible guys seam to say the engine heat breaks down the carbon back plate...

    So, it looks like Gyro, MadIn, and myself are the ones lucky enough with the 106" to talk about on 3DRCF. It looks like both of you have the stock carbon spinner back plate. Over the holiday I read too much on carbon back plates that I freaked myself out and purchased a 5" trueturn from DA...
