    Gathering up parts to rebuild a used dle 55. Valleyviewrc.com is hooking me up with parts :) $35 does a lot to a gas engine. I just love that! Bearings are only $13!

    Welcome! I'm super jealous of the Laser. Enjoy it and post some pics/vids!

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    The difference is that the covering we are talking about has to do with their new technology for printing on the covering. It isn't as simple as just throwing in some blank covering that matches. You will want covering that ties into the printed covering. There is no way to anticipate which...

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    Depends on how they do it. If they could print it at the warehouse as-needed that would be pretty amazing! More of a Just-In-Time manufacturing idea :D

    I read from another source that Chris was indeed credited for the music tracks.

    That video I don't think shows any new printing tech.

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    I am wondering how that will impact costs. It will surely cost different materials and machine time to print the covering... bringing in ink costs etc. and removing extra layers of covering, but it should save a grundle of man-hours in labor. I'm guessing it will have an impact on build time...

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    Bought out and merge are two totally different things. I work in accounting on a huge client that has close to a hundred distinct business units. If someone is bought out they hand the other person the keys and walk away. That is not what happened here. Having a parent company just means...

    PowerHD Storm 4 HV BRUSHLESS servo from Redwing!!!

    Is it possible to run the test again with zero expo? I think the difference could be deviations in how the different servos are interpreting the expo in which case it could be tuned to feel right and isn't necessarily a quality difference.

    One more quick thought... I read your original post too fast lol. Pulling to the canopy means nose heavy or thrust line. Most likely nose heavy. If you try moving the CG back just a little, and re-trim for upright level flight, you might find it goes away. What happens is that when you trim...

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    Easy there, a takeover has to do with buying a majority share of stock. Neither one of these companies issues stock the last I heard. A Merge is exactly what happened. The two parties saw that their interests were aligned and set up a strategy for capitalizing on economies of scale in...

    alawson999 you do need to mix that out... you could also check lateral balance as it may be off enough to affect your trim. To start, suspend the plane from the nose and the tip of the rudder to see what it does. If it is dropping to one side you have likely had to set aileron trip to fix it...

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    I'm very optimistic. As has been mentioned 3dhs service used to be really good. The dropoff in service seems to coincide a lot with the timeline Ben shared about when they started discussing the possibility of a merger. I think both companies know how to offer good service... I am very...

    In general this news has fueled my native general sense of optimism. I REALLY hope this turns out well!

    3DHS and Extreme Flight Merger?

    I think this could be really awesome or a total train wreck. both companies are really going to benefit a lot from sharing their resources. I think some really nice synergies could emerge from this and give an opportunity to have cash to spend on more employees for better customer service. I...

    It did look like the full price would be $999 to me.
