    When in a competition, yes... But when flying for fun, usually not. That's the cool and fun thing about 3D, every flight can be different

    Congrats Tom, sounds like your due diligence paid off. My wife has the honda Odyssey, and before I bought my trailer, I happily loaded it full before hitting the field or events. Now, time to find you something BIG to fly :)

    Electronic failure/malfunction... help needed

    Nah, don't think age would be a big factor, but any binding could be. Wonder if you could put a wattmeter between ESC and battery, then move all servos to full deflection and note the amperage?

    Electronic failure/malfunction... help needed

    It isn't necessarily that the 5A BEC isn't capable normally, but rather that going to full deflection could have caused some binding that led to excessive current draw. Do you hear any buzzing when the controls are fully deflected?

    Electronic failure/malfunction... help needed

    I personally suspect one of two things (based on my own experience with small electrics - and similar mishaps) 1- your castle ice 50 internal BEC was unable to supply enough current during your full deflection pop top, which resulted in a rx brownout band lockout. 2- your rx lost signal and...

    I'm using some 3M double sided foam tape. Works great! Glad you're enjoying the Cortex!

    Chad, I think RedwingRC belongs in that list as well. I've built a bunch of their models now, and they are SOLID.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra

    Light tan is good for broken in (IMHO). New engines will be warmer than normal as they break in, so a little extra oil will not hurt. I'd richen it an 1/10 of a turn on the top end, and maybe a flat head blade with on the low end. Looks great, congrats on the big bird!
