    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Well this weekend was a total wreck....... First up on Friday, the 40% decided to call it quits when I pulled out of a hover. She got 30 feet up and the engine died- best educated guess is because of how rich the engine is that it loaded up when I was torque rolling and when I went wide open...

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

    I was honestly surprised just how fun this little airplane is. It feels like a bigger airplane but still extremely durable and compact enough to take with you anywhere. I took mine out on the river with us the last time we were out there and flew it off of a sandbar. I have a complete build...

    Aerobeez 45% Extra 300 assembly

    Some pics. Kyle Woyshnis really seemed to enjoy the airplane when I let him tug the sticks :) I am very much enjoying this airplane, it flies extremely well with the light setup I have in it. I do want to push the CG forward a little, I had to give it down trim to fly straight which...

    Aerobeez 45% Extra 300 assembly

    Duly noted, thanks :) @Bunky.F.Knuckle I'd like to make this post to thank everyone who assisted me along the way. A 40% airplane is not a little airplane by any means and requires plenty of skill and know-how to get it set up right the first time so it will last for many countless flights...

    Had an AWESOME weekend flying the Aerobeez 126" Extra, the ZDZ is a workhorse and still hauled the mail burbling rich!!! I have lots of pictures from the 3D Funstyle Event this past weekend, I'll be posting them as we get them sorted :)

    Aerobeez 45% Extra 300 assembly

    In all my years of doing GS, I've only seen one, maybe two instances of people having a legitimate problem with a carbon backplate delaminate from heat. I did not hesitate to bolt one up and use it on the ZDZ. The only problem I've had with the carbon spinner is I needed to trim the prop cutout...

    I received my bonded washers yesterday from RTL Fasteners, excellent customer service from them and super fast shipping. Will definitely be ordering more from them!! Last night I spent a little time fitting the washers to my Extra and spent a little time fixing one of the axles on the Yak...
