    Extreme Flight 60" Laser Build Thread

    Av8tor, Can you please take a look at this picture? I rushed myself and my hinge gap is wider inside one of the ailerons. Do you think that will cause some problems? should I fix it or leave it alone? I appreciate the input.

    Another 60" Laser-EXP build

    Wow, I did not know there was another Laser build thread. I am glad I found this by accident. I really like your waxing idea and also the pinning of the hinges. Unfortunately, I messed up one of the aileron hinges while glueing ; just a little too much gap on one side. I will show some picture...

    Which electrical connector do you prefer, and why?

    Can you possibly show us a picture of APP inside your plane? I'm just wondering how it looks and how bulky it is inside a plane?

    Extreme Flight 60" Laser Build Thread

    I used Welder's glue to strengthen the hatch latch; probably not a good idea. The welder melts that foam inside like butter!! immediately. I used small amount so it melted the foam and went down to balsa and I think it is secure now--I hope I wont need to change this thing anytime in the future.

    Which electrical connector do you prefer, and why?

    I read better reviews for this one: http://www.qsradio.com/Powerpoles.htm but more expensive than the Powerwerx Also their clips are better too.

    Which electrical connector do you prefer, and why?

    Great :) thanks. I have used the soldering and bullet connectors for my esc/motor side. I ordered a bunch of 45a power poles fornthe battery side. I might try them after I read more about it.

    Extreme Flight 60" Laser Build Thread

    Thank you. Sorry to distract everyone off of the main topic. I will get my servos today. I work on my plane almost 20 min per night. I hope I can finish this in one week!

    Which electrical connector do you prefer, and why?

    Wow, I'm glad I found this, since I;m so bad with soldering. I started reading that website a little. They seem to work pretty good and without effort. Is 45 amp enough though? Where do you get the locking pin? thanks.

    Which electrical connector do you prefer, and why?

    Very interesting. Thanks. Is the Anderson Power Pole a crimp connection? Can you use it for motor/ESC connection too? I thought a good soldering was the best! is this the place to buy it? http://www.powerwerx.com/anderson-powerpoles/powerpole-sets/30-amp-red-black-anderson-powerpole-sets.html

    Extreme Flight 60" Laser Build Thread

    I am using Edge Lite 100 and BEC with the Torque MKII motor. I will be using 6s likely 4000 mah. I was wondering if anyone has used Dean connectors for this setting. Is it safe to use the deans for 6s? or should I use EC5?

    Yes, you are right. The small one goes to the elevator. Thanks.

    Extreme Flight 60" Laser Build Thread

    Thanks so much Avi8tor for sharing your experience. I noticed my control horns are not exactly the same size as you see. The top one is smaller which is the right size I think and sits in the slot nicely (1.3 cm/almost 0.5 inch for the base part that sits into the slots) and the other three are...

    60" Laser-EXP

    Definitely...I am tired of working non stop; we should get together and fly. Did you miss your slick? you should see it you'll love it. I added BandE graphix and looks awesome...actually it flies much better haha. You should fly it and and feel the difference :) Yeah, totally, I think I should...

    60" Laser-EXP

    After looking at some of the videos, it seems that laser is tumbling pretty aggressively too !! :). I think KE spin at least would be easier with Laser compared to MXS (it is really tough for me to lock in the MXS into KE spin!!).

    Don't you guys think MXS is more violent and tumbly compared to precision Laser??
