    3D GRAVEYARD (Post pics of the mangled old bones that used to be your Airplane!)

    It's broke and I'm broke... Any repair tips? :crying: :facepalm: :mad: :(

    The Official Teen Chit Chat Thread! (Always Off Topic)

    Wow, a thread just for us teens! Just to get the discussion going: how does everyone here fit flying in with school, study, friends, etc? :D

    Rewinding a Brushless Motor

    I've heard that he's considered to be the best in the business for custom wound motors, and I was considering contacting him. It is something I'd like to try myself though, and $30 is about twice what it cost to get the motor to my door! :p

    Rewinding a Brushless Motor

    I recently bought a motor from some really cheap Chinese web shop, hoping that it would have enough power for the job. Unfortunately, it doesn't. I looked at some similar motors from more reputable manufacturers (Omega 103g and Hacker A30-28S V3) and it's about 100W down in power from them. Can...

    What Airframe For My Electronics?

    My Telink 47" Extra 330SC is getting a bit worn out, so I think it might be time to upgrade, but the question is: to what? There doesn't look to be that many planes out there in the 40-48 inch size range, and even fewer which will use my electronics. I have: 1x 3536 910Kv motor w/ 12x6 prop...

    Flying Withdraws Winter Sucks

    Thankfully we haven't had prolonged terrible weather here in Ireland! My only problem is that my only flyable plane is a glider and I'm getting the 3D craving something awful...

    Thanks!

    Yeah that's the one

    84" Bigfoot

    What's the aspect ratio on the BigFoot? Probably an unusual question to ask, but I want to build a similar style plane from scratch and the BigFoot's wing has a "that looks about right" factor to it.

    What Airfoil?

    I know it's not 3D related, but this site is full of people who design R/C planes for a living, so it's worth asking. I'm planning to scratch build a 70"-ish size model of a Just Aircraft SuperSTOL, sort of taking after the 3DHS BigFoot. I have 3-views that I'll use to make plans, but what...

    New Here? Introduce yourself!

    I just realised I never posted here when I was actually new. I've been flying RC for almost three years, pretty much solely aerobatic/3D planes. I'm making progress, but I still have loads to learn. This forum has been such a boost to my learning curve, especially the 3DPedia because I can find...

    48" Edge 540 Building, Flying, and Questions

    I have a 14x7 prop coming my way for this plane. Should be a major step up from my Telink EPP Extra in terms of power and performance

    48" Edge 540 Building, Flying, and Questions

    Went ahead and ordered one of these with a SunnySky 2820/920 over the weekend. Can't wait until it arrives!

    48" Edge 540 Building, Flying, and Questions

    Thanks! It looks like a really capable plane in all the videos I've seen, hopefully it'll perform even half as well in my hands

    48" Edge 540 Building, Flying, and Questions

    I'm thinking of picking one of these up as a first real balsa 3D plane. Any tips/tricks?

    Hobbyking 1400mm SBach 300

    Just saw this over on RCG. Looks really nice, but the fact that it's from HobbyKing may reveal otherwise... http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__45296__Sbach_300_EP_3D_Balsa_1400mm_ARF_.html
