    Hobbywing Platinum Pro 100 Amp ESC

    Thanks. Figured I should pass this guy on since I rarely ever need an ESC this big. The only other ESC I have that is over 50 amps is the one in my 71" Slick. It is a good ESC it just does not like this motor.

    Hobbywing Platinum Pro 100 Amp ESC

    It was with the new Torque 4016/500 MKII on my 64" MXS. The timing was fine with a lipo at 3.8 volts a cell. When I put a full charge on it I set the timing on the ESC to it's highest point and it still was not syncing up. I ordered a ZTW B Series last night with a programmer. I have heard...

    Hobbywing Platinum Pro 100 Amp ESC

    Hobbywing Platinum Pro 100 Amp ESC $40 Up for sale is my never used Hobbywing Platinum Pro 100 Amp ESC. I installed it in my newest plane and fired it up a couple of times but my motor does not like the esc. The timing will not match up so my loss will be your gain. I installed an external BEC...

    Thanks Gary. I just did not want to upset anyone. I try to stay on topic but it is tough when talking about my second passion, photography. Excellent idea! It is always best to try a camera out before you buy it. I have rejected camera's just based on how they felt in my hands. When I...

    Nice Pic! I will see what I can do. My regular flying buddy has not flown an airplane or heli in about 3 weeks! Every time I tell him I am going out he just says he is busy. I have a photo buddy who I am trying to get to shoot my 71" Slick in the air but his days off are different then mine...

    Looks like someone is messing with the HDR filter in Photoshop. I like messing with it too.

    Thanks yours are better though, the MXS is in the air. I have a hard time finding someone to fly with let alone someone who will photograph for me. I usually fly alone because they are getting more and more skittish at my club when I come out the fly so I have been avoiding it that and they...

    Thanks Gary I have to agree it is a very nice looking plane. I have maybe one or two shots when I was building but I thought I posted them already. They were more wide shots of just the plane on my work table. I will take a look for ya. EDIT: I just looked the only ones I have is one of it...

    Finally I am done slacking am ready for my maiden. I hate it when life gets in the way of my flying. I finished my green MXS up then decided I wanted to take a few shots of it so I setup my studio gear. Enjoy! I hope to get the maiden in on my day off this Sunday. I cannot wait.

    48" Edge 540 Building, Flying, and Questions

    You guys will get there just give it time. Landing is a maneuver in itself as Ben has explained. It just takes practice. Also another tip try to remember to switch to low rates when you land. That is one of my biggest mistakes forgetting to switch my rates and landing on high rates. I am...

    I have been wanting to come down to SVF. I have talked with Buzzed and NeverEnough about it. I bought a plane from NeverEnough once. I just need to get sometime off and come down there. My sister lives in Surprise and I would stay at her place. I just have to get some time off and figure...

    3DHS New Products and General Plane Info/Help for Fanatics

    3DHS Website says late December 2012. I am going to be getting one as well probably in red to match my 71". I have both the 41" Edge and the 48" Edge. I prefer the 48", much smoother and not as twitching. Overall seems more forgiving to me. I like the 41" just fine but prefer the 48", I...

    You don't have to be a pro, I am not by any means at all. The only thing that matters, at least to me, is that you are having fun and helping grow the best part of this hobby, 3D!! Congrats on the maiden! I was out flying my blue one this evening as well. It is a really great plane.

    Man you are slacking! I love that show. I have been watching it since day 1. Season 3 is so far my favorite season! It is just non stop action and suspense the whole time! I thought two was brutal but 3 blows it out of the water! Enjoy it! Ok sorry back on topic. I am guessing a 50CC...

    These are the guys I am using on my 1258TG's. If you do not mind waiting a bit they are great because you can cut them to length you need. I am not a big fan of the purple but you can't see it in the air unless you are close. Single Arm Double Arm

    Ok so I am slowly setting up my MXS. I have a question thought about the Torque 4016/500 MKII. I know you need to set the ESC Timing to low but how low? The ESC I have only has settings in degrees. 0, 3.75, 7.5, 11.25, 15(Default), 18.75, 22.5, and 26.25. What do you all suggest I set it...

    Just got the last of my parts in today. I could not wait any longer so I just threw them on a credit card. I hope to finish the build this weekend unless I can make time during the week. State playoffs this week along with Halloween and everything else news worthy so I doubt I will get much...
