    Question? SolidHobby Labor Day Sale?

    Thanks again Jeremy and I guess I should have stated the 12V power supply. The largest batteries I have will be a 4S 5000 so a 12V PS is plenty for what I need. Will the same options you list above be available on the 12V PS? I'll need to plug in the PL6. Thanks, Frank

    Question? SolidHobby Labor Day Sale?

    Thanks for letting me know Jeremy. I do have a question for you though since I have you. How do I connect the PL6 to your power supply? I see that the PL6 comes with an EC5 connector, but how is that connected to the PS? Thanks, Frank

    Question? SolidHobby Labor Day Sale?

    Anyone know if Solid Hobby is offering a discount coupon to the 3DRC forum members? I could sure use a new charger and power supply. Frank

    Castle Creations Talon 90 ESC

    What do you guys think about the Castle Creations Talon 90 ESC? Need some candid feedback on them. Thinking about using it on my T-Clips. I know it is overkill, but that is exactly what I need -overkill for safety reasons. If the Talon doesn't have a bulletproof reputation, I will have to use an...

    I just found this review of the 24V PS done by SnowDog. http://www.3drcforums.com/showthread.php?1240-Review-of-SolidHobby-com-Power24-Power-Supply Nicely done! A thought just occurred to me. How many amps is being pulled by the PS from the house current? I am not have a large enough...

    Discussion My Favorite Charger. Pros & Cons

    I heard that charging batteries too fast is not good on them so I normally charge them at 1C, but this is really do to my charger's capability. With the 4S batts I am charging right now on my Cellpro 4S, I had to lower the charge rate so the charger and PS would not overheat. Frank

    Discussion My Favorite Charger. Pros & Cons

    OK thanks. No problem with testing conductivity. Maybe I will read over that and see if it is something I can do. If not, I'll just get a 12V power supply. I'm sure the 12V PS from Solid will be enough to charge 2 4s 4000 mAH batts with a PL6 at the same time. I don't think I will need 24V...

    It's my second. I had a 41" long time ago. I sold it because I felt it was too light and floaty. At the time I was flying nitro and gas planes. Frank

    Discussion My Favorite Charger. Pros & Cons

    Making your own is definitely the way to do it. A good 24V PS costs almost as much as the charger. Is this the site that gave you the instructions? https://sites.google.com/site/tjinguytech/ Was it hard to do? I heard on one of the podcasts that there is a good chance that a guy with only...

    Discussion My Favorite Charger. Pros & Cons

    Speaking of power supplies, since you can't use a charger without one, what are you guys using? Would like to focus on the 110V PS if possible since I'm not sure many people have a deep cycle sitting around. Thanks, Frank

    Finally ordered the 4s 4000 batts from BuddyRC last weekend and charged them last night. This morning I had the maiden flight on my 55" Edge and all I have to say is "Believe the Hype!" WOW, what an awesome flying airplane. Frank who needs more batteries and a better charger to charge them

    TransAmerica Tour 2014

    I pitched this idea to the Discovery Channel folks. How cool it would be for them to film our airplane and the folks flying it across the USA. Since this will be the second time this has ever been done in the history of model aviation, I think it would definitely be interesting to see it...
