    Aerobeez 70″ Slick PRO Step By Step Build Guide

    We can certainly guess why the CA hinge, 1) light weight, 2) cheaper, 3) quicker easier build. My concern is not that the CA hinges will break but rather them pulling out with the extra force of a 70 size plane. But the more I think about it, I doubt that will happen, there are probably enough...

    FAA 2014-0396- interpretation of new rule for Model Aircraft

    They seem quite sensible a reasonable and there is specific wording which says the new rule does not apply to us hobbyist. I would think they had to consider the fact that there are probably over a million "drone" toys out there, they are tasked with keeping the NAS safe, not in the business of...

    3DHS 126 AJ Slick

    Stolen? How does one make off with a 12 foot plane?

    NEW - Slick Pro Flight Review!

    That video shows off the plane better than the first one from AZ. Like it!

    70 degrees, 5-8 mph winds, clear blue sky. Blessed to be flying in San Diego :)

    RedwingRC Pilot Joe Smith Flies For the Prince of Dubai!!!

    I have total respect for Joe, but that seems particularly crazy to me, that is a LARGE plane flying very close to the general public. If it got away from him for some reason, it could hurt or kill someone, he might then find himself in a Dubai jail until the "completed the investigation"...

    ChinaHobby Batteries

    CHL have been my battery of choice for about a year now. They balance really well and provide good power and the great customer service is a bonus. I've never had one fail or puff. If you sign up for the weekly newsletter you can get some great deals. I got 6S 6200 30C packs for $64 last summer.

    I think the defender ran into the receiver exactly the same time the ball got there, at least that's how I saw it. I feel bad for Seahawks fans, you think the game is in the bag, you're getting ready to start the celebrations... and BAM, you lose!

    My New 3D Extra 300 Prototype For Fly-Model

    OK, got it RCjetsworld in SD. Bigger than I was thinking when you described it as a 35cc. Very long in comparison to it's span, interesting design choice there.

    My New 3D Extra 300 Prototype For Fly-Model

    That is really cool, didn't think something like that could actually happen. What's the dimensions? You said in your video, "here in San Diego," what club do you fly? I'd love to check out your test flights.

    Aerobeez 70″ Slick PRO Step By Step Build Guide

    Yeah the more I think about it, it's likely a deal killer for me, was really looking closely at getting this one. Those hinges let go on the elevator and there goes your $1000 plane.

    Aerobeez 70″ Slick PRO Step By Step Build Guide

    Looks great. But I'm having a hard time getting past the CA hinges on a 70 inch plane. Does not seem like it would be strong enough.

    New Here? Introduce yourself!

    You know what? I've never crashed a balsa 3D plane, I've had power failures 4-5 time that resulted in controlled crashes but never crashed do to my own stick screw ups. I get all my crashes out with profile foamies, and 4 years after starting 3D I still crash those. Can't recommend EPP...

    You don't like the Cortex? I love them, they are amazing. Tempting to buy yours but I have two already.

    70" 24% Slick Pro Electric 3D Aerobatic ARF RC Airplane Black/Yellow

    Haha, yep! I ran across that video this morning actually. Love that plane, looks like it would be a blast. I'm enjoying the Aerobeez 48 Extra Hybrid EPP/balsa, I will surely get that 55.

    70" 24% Slick Pro Electric 3D Aerobatic ARF RC Airplane Black/Yellow

    Huge rudder on those planes, super cool. Pretty sure I'll end up with one. In that first photo, I'm spying an Aerobeez/Skywing 55 inch Edge 540 EPP/Balsa. Come on Aerobeez, tell us that's what it is. I want it! I've been loving the Aeobeez 48 Extra balsa/EPP. If they were in stock I could have...

    Help With Motor Timing and Poor Throttle Response (Gecko 120HV)

    If I advanced quickly on the ground I could induce cogging. I started out with the timing set to "auto", smooth IMAC flying was fine but as soon as I'd enter a hover it would cog. I contacted Garret at Altitude Hobbies and he recommended I set the timing to 15 degrees, so I did and that killed...

    Help With Motor Timing and Poor Throttle Response (Gecko 120HV)

    Well today I lost timing completely with my new EF 60 Yak, Gecko 85A/MF 4315 lost timing and would not restart, pancaked the plane, fortunately I only broke the LG. Now begins the wait for EF to stock parts for this plane. I think I've had it with Gecko's at this point. I don't know what is...
