    That heat gun has to be older than me :D

    That servo is going to drive the boost tab right?

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    ^^^^^ X amount of torque coming from any motor on the planet will ALWAYS be exactly X amount of torque. Again, if you see anything else than a flat line on a graph which use distance and force for scales, you did something wrong. There is no way around it sorry. The servo does not know which...

    True, but a Cap is even cooler :D

    Reza has been here for a week and he's already giving stuff away! RED LINE OIL!

    Congrats on bringing some of this great oil to modelers of GSN. I'm using another brand and perfectly happy with the results, don't count me in for the contest LOL. Good luck.

    Do these use mini or standard size servos?

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    A poorly designed mechanical installation in a plane will require a stronger servo to achieve the same results. IMO a good setup will actually GAIN mechanical advantage as you get to the end points so effectively this makes the surface move with more force but with less travel per degree of...

    I love it. These colors look just as old school as the plane.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Beware, if its a gopro that has bluetooth or wi-fi make sure to turn it off before taking off. It can (eventually WILL) mess up with our 2.4 signals. The reason being its very close to our receiver while our transmitter is super far. Theres one guy in our club that crashed his extreme flight...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I flew today along with 5 other friends. Our asphalt runway was 80% clear of its snow and the grass area was still completely covered with snow and ice. Most converted to wheels but 2 planes flew on skis. Can't wait to get out my more serious planes.

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    Arent they the servos that to get full benefit of them you need to use no regulator or battery share circuit so you get the regenerative charge ? I installed 2 of these servos in an 1/8 RC moncter truck but had to use their PAD thing because i was running off a BEC which can't allow regenerative...

    Still needs a few adjustments but you're def getting there. I talk about the cookie, not the awesome servo tester.

    That P51 has to be alot of fun to fly. As much as I love flying IMAC type maneuvers and also lots of 3D, I am also looking for something else at times. Night flying, Float flying, winter flying with skis, 1/10 monster truck, etc...

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    Yes it appears quite high to me too but like I said, everything runs from these 2 packs, engine and smoke pump included. Plane is equipped with 8711 servos which are known to require more power than other servos (less efficient?). Its relatively heavy at 42lbs which may also make a little...

    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    Wow thats like soooo little. My 40% extra 260 uses around 1000 mah total (500 per battery). And thats for 10 minute flights ! I charge every flight so I know exactly. I consistently do between 950 and 1050 depending how hard I fly and if I use smoke or not. Everything is driven from these 2...

    A properly executed rolling circle is MUCH MUCH MUCH harder to do than a torque roll or pretty much anything else. Congrats on your success !

    3DHS and ExtremeFlightRC to merge?

    I would kind of like them to keep separate names. Like maybe having 2 product lines that somewhat compete each other. There clearly is a market for both anyway, they're constantly sold out. While joining forces, each would keep their uniqueness.

    Of course it counts. And I hate you for that LOL. A good part of the snow metled today up here. It was raining all day with temps pretty high compared to what we had just a few dayss ago. Summer is finally coming !
