    @emtp275 Yep I have 5645's so ready on the servo side. Thanks for the offer though. :) Thanks@ChickenBalls @stangflyer and everyone else for the great advice. Looks like smartfly with lipo's is the way to go when you cross over into the 50cc range so time to do some shopping. Sorry to get off...

    @ChickenBalls since I am such a "noob" on this and it may help others(Yes guys I still run dual nimh's on some of my birds) what smartfly system do you suggest, recommended vendor, types of lipo's etc,. As our aussie/mexican friend in Tucson Az says "mucho gracious". :big-grin:

    @49dimes we must be related somehow. My Mom is from LA (Lower Alabama for the unwashed). Clanton and Cato blood. But then again being a southern country boy I suspect we all "be cousins" somehow.:laughing:

    WOW! Glad she is OK. Well I hate to be the fire Dept that has to pay that insurance settlement. You sure she did not get some "whiplash".:LOL_gif: Might be able to buy that 100cc ultimate after all!:money_talks:

    Yep. A vehicle backup is a must when one of those microburst hits and you are tenting it. This year I think I'm taking a trailer so probably going to use that as sleeping quarters.:sleepy:

    Fly Models ARF's - your opinion???

    Yep @emtp275 @ChickenBalls looks like the thunderbird is going to find a home in my shop based on your reviews! I kinda have the same feeling :I_agree: on some of the "koolaid" models I have. In looking @mulehead1969 MX and seeing pics of your bird, getting into 50cc with a FM seems like a...

    Surviving Joe Nall 2015

    Funny story. At Nall, I think 3 years ago, one of the big storms comes up around 1 am. My son and I are listening to the weather radio and hearing the thunder coming closer and closer. Well we come under the warning on the radio and I look at Ben and say "we better wake up the guys". Understand...

    Ben and I got a couple of "core man" flights in this afternoon after supper. Went in Hard one time but a little foam safe ca and kicker solved that issue. That's what I get for trying to do an inverted harrier 6 inches off the ground.:lol2: "Down is up and up is expensive"

    @Xpress is that the 74" extreme flight yak? If so I have the same one with a 1.60 glow. Haven't flown it in a while because I'm going to gas on everything and I need a DLE 30cc to go on it. You are right. A great flying bird.:I_agree: Thanks for the video!

    Well finally got the carpet laid on the floor and mid deck area and installed the wing holders using 3/4pvc with dowels inserted for strength and rigidity.

    Yep. Will probably be looking at a 50 to 70cc size plane while down there. Definitely save on shipping since I have something to haul it back home with. @emtp275 @ChickenBalls will be relying on you guys for guidance.;)
