    Hangar 9 3.1M Sukhoi

    They generally are fine on HV but there's always going to be a wild card here and there that doesn't want to cooperate.

    She's pooched, we wouldn't even be able to repair it. Save the gears though, they will work in the 7955's.

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

    Did some much needed work to the Aerobeez 70" Slick. First up was installing a new plywood battery tray out of 1/8" ply. The factory tray gave way where the straps run through it after probably close to 300 flights. Just cut up a new tray the size of my batteries, epoxied it in place, and stuck...

    Resurrecting an Old Favorite - 3DHS 87" Extra SHP

    Those old models seemed to have that issue. They looked good but couldn't fly well. I'm glad they decided to move away from those airplanes and start developing good flying airplanes

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

    Jitter isn't something to do with the connection between your receiver and your servo, it's generally caused by position variances in servo gear teeth, particularly HV and high res servos. The POT see's the slight movement on the output arm and tells the motor to readjust the position to bring...

    I did the baffles on my 91" Slick out of Depron and the baffles on my 107" Yak and 126" Extra out of the creative foam and the baffles on the 91" Slick have melted big time compared to the creative foam. You will like the creative foam, it's a lot more robust than Depron and cuts pretty clean...

    Smoke System for Electric planes

    There is only one system out there that I know of but it adds a ton of weight and will strip your airplane of every good flying characteristic it has. If I recall correctly, the unit weighed something close to 1.5lb with all of the tubing and the heating element and then you have to use a smoke...
