    Remind me not to cross you Gyro; your access to info is scary! If he is looking for a new Airframe sponsor what does that say about 3DHS? I'll shut up now as I got in a world of trouble going down that path here in the past:facepalm:

    Yeah...I saw that Ventique 60E he designed And that "Shark Tooth Leading Edge" has alot of potential. 1. Cutting downed power lines 2. Tree trimming And 3. Tape cutting at business opening dedications. Seriously..... Shark tooth leading edge? Is that a DARPA technology? PS...Ironic...

    Send it over! I have a drawer full of those-I can cobble one together. Oh...BTW...that one looks like it went into the mantle of the Earth or got fished out of Crystal Lake. That motor is not a "Subsonic' it looks like a "Submariner":veryshocked: Cheers! PS...Snow Dog.....Next time you...

    Holy Grail or Motrolfly 4315-480 or Covenant of the Lost Ark

    Figure there is equal chance of finding any of the three! Torque Revolution 500MKII would do. For 58" 3DHS EDGE Thanks...Greg

    Joe Smith quits 3DHS!

    I may get flamed for this but there may be more in life than flying 3D all the time. Not sure how frangible these skills are but a year off doing something completely different can give a new perspective. Take my wife for example..Please somebody!
