    Bavarian Demon Cortex

    I use this stuff and grades of it in different industrial products. The VHB stands for Very High Bond. Grades of this actually hold sheets of aluminum together in full size planes and U Haul type trailers. When this stuff is applied correctly the foam layer rips before the adhesive breaks...

    Aeroplus RC 111" Edge 540 V3 "Assembly"

    In the 92" I could not find a good solid place for fuel dot. I will be replicating your cowl mount spot. Nice. Thanks.

    Bavarian Demon Cortex

    Thanks....and worth every penny.. It brings super sized fun to any of your planes...As soon as I get the 92" Edge trimmed and sorted out I may give it a go on the gasser.

    Bavarian Demon Cortex

    I think the Cortex is making me better as flying my bigger plane with out. I come from the Heli world and the accuracy and reaction of the Cortex is very simular to the german designed VBar system in my LogoSX. Funny that the Cortex is also german based... The main reason I feel the Cortex is...

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    The order has not arrived yet...I just started the repair of the fuse. I listed all the items I thought I needed the night of the crash and sent to Kole. The reality is I was able to fix most items. I ordered the following: Rudder.....but fixed by patching covering Landing gear......I stole...

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    Tail wheel, and both sides of the fuse are fixed. I just need to hack the cowl open for air flow and hinge the left elevator for maiden number 2 tomorrow!!! Is there such a thing...second maiden??

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    Man thanks for suggesting forward slipping. I googled it and just did a dozen or so hot approaches way up just to see if I can still shut it down before the end of the runway (on Sim). I started to go nuts on my speed and some times got in to a weak knife edge. The plane dropped and I was in...

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    There were several issues that caused this. 1. I did not check temps early in flight. Cowl was not open enough. Engine got hot and died. 2. After I was too high on first approach the engine quit right when you here me say "oh no!" 3. The elevator was not blighting on low rates. Due to...

    Thanks!!! Super fast. I wonder how Long customs will hold the parts.

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    I have got into fixing the fuse last night and am amazed how little fuse damage it has. The landing gear was stripped yet the mount is perfect and just needs new gear bolted on. Fast forward to end to see how hard it hit. Attached is raw movie with no edits. http://youtu.be/2M5FXZM1uAk

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    Yea..no stress...If I did not love to build, tweak, and fly these buckets of balsa and gas I would have folded tent yesterday. I blame this one on not keeping close tabs on telemetry data when I knew it would most likely run hot. I was too busy getting the feel of the plane at different...

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    My maiden was not so great due to a hot engine. I opened up the covering at the end of the canister and opened up the bottom cowl hole to the first chamfer inside like you did. After about 3-4 minutes I noticed the temps reported by my telemetry were through the roof. So started to land...

    Aeroplus 60cc / 92" Edge 540 V3 from Limitless Aero

    My first building impressions are that this is better than the 3DHS in innovation, build quality, and fit!! The first thing I noticed was that the rudder rod practically fell into place! With the other ARF's this is a chore to push the rod in each hinge. These lined up like it was built with...

    Gp-61

    Helicoils done correct require you to tap then twist this spring looking helicoil in. The hardest part is determining sizing.

    Gp-61

    I was wrenching up the muffler after every 4th flight...Almost to the point where I was going to put some holes in the cowl to make it easy. Then go some Nord locks....Never had a problem since. This is the part number I ordered. 91812A227 from McMaster Carr

    Pre Orders open for new ARFs!!

    The racks are a good idea for multiple planes to free up the stand. They look like standard bike racks??? I wonder if Harbor Freight has some similar.

    The spec on my Savox is the same at 347 in-oz @ 7.4v. But I got the 1271TG ones... Let us know how the flutter plays out over a few flights. EDIT: Sorry, I just read your post...moving to 1.75" reduced issue... It is a mazing how quick one can strip all the servos, receiver, IBEC, and...

    Looks nice...Can you shoot a pic of your layout of receiver and batteries behind the wing tube? It looks like the inside is a lot wider behind the wind tube than most. I followed your lead and ordered a 20oz WrongWayRC tank... took my 16oz tank to Empty a few times when I got could not...
