    EG 100cc Slick 540 from Aztech Aeromodels

    I'm excited! Got a new tent the other day for camping. My tent from last year was tiny and leaked lol. I think I'm ready :)

    EG 100cc Slick 540 from Aztech Aeromodels

    Yet another beautiful day at the field! Wish I could have got some video. The plane is all ready for huckfest and 3dbash. I picked up a few more fromeco 5200s from Azhar so now I have a second to keep me flying all day.

    Oh yeah I'll be at the 3d bash for sure. That and huck fest are my vacation this year. Looking forward to it though. I did find a new club and it's been awesome. They're not much into 3d but they have no problem with it and really enjoy watching it.

    EG 100cc Slick 540 from Aztech Aeromodels

    Installed some Secraft battery trays in my Slick today. They're really light weight and look awesome. Perfect for holding my 5200 relions.

    EG 100cc Slick 540 from Aztech Aeromodels

    I think the 29x9 was making too much thrust on my downline even at low idle compared to the 27x11. I haven't had any issues with landing speed, I just switch to my low idle and it comes it perfect. You'll probably like it for your style. A lot of top pilots like Gabby, Jase, Daniel, and Seth...

    EG 100cc Slick 540 from Aztech Aeromodels

    Was out flying this afternoon and I had a great time. Very low wind but it was a little hot. The Slick is flying great. I ordered a plane wrapper from B&E today after getting home. Hopefully it does a good job protecting my plane.

    Nope. I cracked one of my mufflers and my replacement didn't make it in time unfortunately. I was just watching your video of your new gasser. We have to get together and fly again soon. I just remembered I have a wedding to go to this weekend but Friday, Monday mornings, and the weekend are...

    I've been flying my Slick with a Falcon CF 27x11 for a little while now and for my style it's my favorite prop. It adds a nice amount of energy to tumbles over the 29x9, I can get an extra rotation in crankshafts and pop tops. The 27x11 is a pretty nice all around prop. Good speed and down line...

    Or how about when horizon hobby releases those cool new product videos with their new plane flying. Aren't all those flights for commercial purposes?

    Me :) Switched to a 27x11 cf falcon prop on my gp123. I like it a lot more than the 29x9. Still pulls out of a hover with power to spare but with the extra speed the roll rate on my Slick is even faster now :eek::eek::eek: Also the prop makes a lot less noise than the 29x9 but I'm still ripping...

    32" MXS-C! Backyard insanity!

    Thanks for the kind words! I've been flying for about 3 years now. After a lot of practice linking moves together I now feel like it flows naturally but I first I really had to work on linking them up. That video was with 2s using the digital power combo. Since I went for a light weight set up...

    Gp-61

    I wonder if the same size would work for my 123? I've been putting off purchasing some nordlocks because I'm not sure which size OD I need and my digital caliper battery died.

    Thanks guys! I found one on Craigslist for a good deal so I'll probably go with that.

    Anyone have a recommendation for a good drill press. Not looking to spend too much, I'm just using it to drill props.
