    3 year old DA-100. Should be good?

    Ignition straight into powerbox?

    Never fly without. Have a few, bot smart-fly and RCXL. Main concern was if the ignition could cause damage to the powerbox, but after reading this and the other site I'll give it a go

    Ignition straight into powerbox?

    So, I am refurbishing my CARF Extra 330L 100cc - old plane, new setup. My plan is to have 2 x LIFE 3000 mah into a Powebox Evolution. I am planning to power the ignition straight from the Powerbox. Is this OK, or a no-go??

    Favorite RC Magazine?

    www.fmt-rc.de Via Itunes I think the magazine can be downloaded in English as well. The reviews in Model Airplane News were the very reason I unsubscribed that magazine. If they cannot be honest about a product there is no point in subscribing.

    3D SWB Wire Tensioner

    Did the Velcro thing also. But after reading this i also put Velcro between the elevator counter balance and the stab. Those 7955`s sure jitter. Well, going to use brushless servos in my newer Sukhoi an Yak. Haven't had any brushless servos before..

    Scale Balsa USA 1/3 Scale Super Cub Kit " NIB "

    With that amount of torque one will be plenty. However, if this one fails there only one outcome. I have never had a servo (Hitec) fail on me, but for my cub I think I'll go for the SWB 2-servo tray. If one fails, I still have 50% rudder movement from the other servo. If one fails, the other...

    GP 33% Extra 330L for IMAC?

    I also had one of these. Used a Zenoah gt80 in it. For IMAC today I would have used a 100cc twin. The plane is a bit heavier than a regular ARF, but should do fine for IMAC. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Trying to order from DA..

    I've been trying to order a new da120- cylinder from DA, but with no reply to my mails. I've used info@desertaircraft.com - this is the right address? Maybe they are really busy, but 2 mails over 8-9 days and no reply..

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Finished a depron model (Click 3D Evo), and then installed aileron servos in my new compy Extra. I can hardly get in and out of my hobbyroom which is only 3X3 meters..

    JR Loyalty Trade In Program for DSM2/DSMX Radios to new DMSS Systems

    Think I`m going for the XG14, after I gave it some thinking. And the fact that I lost my 12X on the ice and have to replace the whole gimbal unit. The radio is fairly priced, too, at 550 USD.
