    Skip Stewart's P3 Revolution, 60cc, Horizon Hobby, NEW!

    I was always a Hitec fan, but I could not afford Hitec's with the torque I needed and the amount of servos needed for my 104" slick, I went with Savox and they will probably be the only thing I use from now on.

    Tech-aero IBEC question

    Hitec also tried to pass the buck, in the end the IBEC's were not the A9 culprit. I have run the A9 since it came out and with Tech Aero IBEC's with no issues at all. That said I had a friend loose 2 100cc planes with the A9 and I was present for one of them. Neither plane had an ibec in it. The...

    bizarre issue with airplane

    I like these for holding wires, I put the wires in then add a drop of ca on the split.

    bizarre issue with airplane

    I've seen a bad servo cause another to freak out, try unplugging one servo at a time(all of them) to see if problem stops. I also saw one do this when the throttle servo was mounted under the cowl, moved it inside fuse and problem solved.

    I used to worry about that and I would tape the rudder, then one day I forgot and when I saw it in the rear view I noticed the rudder would self center and stay there.Even in a crosswind it stays straight until I slow down for a light or stop sign,or old person crossing the road,or a critter...

    Hauling Your Plane in a Pickup... Best Ideas? Post them here!

    I use my truck,all I do is have a styrofoam block with a wood dowel through it that I bungee cord at the back of the fuse to keep the tail wheel from being hammered on bumps, otherwise I just tie it with rope to the bed hooks and go. Carry a 50cc and 100cc at the same time this way.
