    Extreme Flight Owners Thread

    I built my own trailer a few years back for my 100cc Edge. At the time I had a little Honda del Sol, so I couldn't carry or tow much! (now I have a Ford Escape :thumbup:). I used one of those $150 Harbor Freight trailers and built a box on the top complete with two access doors, landing gear and...

    How many years have you been in the hobby?

    Hahaha. Yeah, but did you teach yourself how to fly? :D I was the youngest member in my club of 70+ fliers for several years. Became the newsletter editor when I was 13 because no one else wanted the job. Then I somehow got roped into being the president at 18 yo and have been ever since. Garret

    ZTW ESCs Q&A

    I'll be honest, the caps are somewhat exposed. We've sold quite a few of the Land Powers and have only had issues with one in which a cap broke loose. They seem to hold up fine to vibration, but a hit in the wrong place could knock one off. The ZTW A-series don't have this issue -- the caps are...

    Radio Wars, Part 2

    I love radio wars too. ;D I fly the Airtronics SD-10G and it is an amazing system. I've used it for close to 3 years now and love it. With the FH3 receivers, users get the additional speed which feels much faster than 10ms. Combined with digital servos, I was blown away by the speed and...

    Aeroworks Extra 260 QB-L 52"

    I have one of these and really like it. I'm running the recommended Hacker A30-12xl just for the sake of easy setup since the mount was pre-drilled for it. I running Airtronics 94809's on the wing and Hitec HS-5085MGs on the tail (as recommended). Combined with Airtronics FH3 RX's, the speed of...

    Altitude Hobbies Hosted ZTW ESC discussion/ Q & A thread

    Hi, Frank -- The A-series are the "original" version -- these are the ones people have been using for years. We sell them and Quantum has been selling them for quite a while. They are a great ESC and everyone loves them. B-series are newer than A-series and have several additional features...
