    Battery Charger Recommendation

    Hey guys. Thanks for the suggestions. I have given some of your suggestions and a couple of my own to my son who is looking for a christmas present for me so stay tuned. Thanks for the offer @Xpress but I'm afraid the unit was heavily damaged (un-salvageable) due to the fire and it landing on...

    Are you going to register with the FAA? Cast Your Vote!

    Have seen a lot of comments about what the FAA produced is a law. In actuality it is a rule issue by a government department. @Bartman correctly references it as a rule. What congress approved was law. I won't go into the constitutional discussion concerning rules and laws and there differences...

    FAA Announces their rules for radio controlled aircraft

    Well that is a bunch of Horse s#!t. On bullet point #4 I now have to "create" a hatch to access the number on several of my birds! My GP Ultimate has no hatch in that it is an old school glow design that I have upgraded to a 50cc gasser. Where in the hell am I going to put the hatch?:very_angry:

    Battery Charger Recommendation

    X1 I believe Mike. Plugged it in and big spark and the magic blue smoke occurred followed by a smell of plastic burning. Quickly unplugged and tossed out the shop door before any flames began to show.:omg: Had it about 3 years.

    DA-50 Throttle Response

    @Bartman Bart, I have a DL50 with very much the same issue. I had to program a curb in the throttle to get good linear response. Of course now I'm now having to change servos because the standard hitec 645 took a dump and started to dance all over the place. Just could not hold up to the...

    DL 50 Issue

    Thanks guys. I was thinking the same thing. Go back to factory settings and start from there. Kelly, I believe it has the knock off carb but I'll look again . Bunkey before adjusting it just kept getting fatter in the mid range (kinda like me :LOL_gif:) but the idle was solid with no surging.

    DL 50 Issue

    Hey Folks. Having an issue with my DL 50 that I am flying on my Ultimate. I don't have but maybe 4 or 5 tanks through this yet and the previous owner may have only put one or two through it, so pretty much a new engine just in the break in stage. Was running a little fat two flights ago so I...
