    The 3DRCForums -Discuss Anything Thread-

    Well yesterday was all a wash. Rain all morning long, then wind all afternoon and into the night. We even had a tornado warning at one point :confused::confused::confused:

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Flew a couple of times on Saturday before I noticed my DA120 was having an odd stumbling problem. Looks like a new exhaust header is leaking, and possibly have a bad connection on the ignition battery. Sunday we got all washed out with lots of rain and wind.

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

    It's a handy piece of equipment to have, especially for matching multiple servos on a surface. Makes your servos last a lot longer! @pawnshopmike Nice! I like!! We were also struck with LOTS of wind yesterday, and plenty of rain. We actually had a tornado warning inland, with reported water...

    Xpress does a BANSHEE build...

    I made a little more progress yesterday, pretty much at a standstill right at this moment until I can get some more parts in the mail. Should have the engine ordered up this week :D:cool: Rudder servo in its place. You always want to try and get this guy as centered in place as you can, and...

    Aerobeez "BANSHEE" 91" Slick build

    Didn't do a whole lot today as I'm waiting for more parts to come in the mail, but I did manage to get the rudder servo in: And I got the rudder control horns glued in place: Now it's just a waiting game.

    Aerobeez "BANSHEE" 91" Slick build

    The shovel 'magically vanished' and is nowhere to be found @stangflyer ;) @Rick dazzler Yep the 93" is HUGE! This 91" is pretty impressive with its size too! Seems like I'm seeing more and more of them around. If this thing flies anything like my 70" Aerobeez Slick Pro then I know I'll love it.

    Aerobeez "BANSHEE" 91" Slick build

    @pawnshopmike Aerobeez has really been stepping up the game the past year with the airplanes they've introduced. The 93" Extra 330 SC and the 91" Slick are just the tip of the sword. Recently they just released a new 78" Slick in a badass orange color scheme: And we've been testing out a 40%...

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

    Did some maintenance to the 107" Yak today. Re-patched a hole in the bottom that was bugging me, sealed up an exhaust header leak, and replaced a bad plug on my ignition battery. Should be ready to thrash again :D

    Xpress does a BANSHEE build...

    I've taped it back together for now so it should hold up just fine, but will definitely be ordering a new canopy as soon as I can.

    Xpress does a BANSHEE build...

    Made a lot of progress last night. Wings and elevators are all 100% ready for flight, servo and all. I like to do the method that Pilot RC suggest for cutting out aileron servo pockets, makes things look cleaner on the bottom side. Ironed down inside, keep it all in place. I ran my iron...

    Aerobeez "BANSHEE" 91" Slick build

    Alrighty, did more work to the airplane tonight, we're just a handful of steps away from liftoff! I wanted to detail how I cut out the covering on the aileron servo pockets. This is how Pilot RC also tells you to do it and quite frankly, I like this method a lot. Has a very clean appearance...

    Yes, we said go lower and slower so he went as low and slow as the airplane could possibly go!!!! :eek::oblong::laughing: I'm sure @Joe Hunt already has it repaired and ready to huck again.

    NEW AEROBEEZ 78" Slick 540!!!

    I was planning on fitting my Hacker A60-18L to it since it's basically a 50cc power plant, running it on either 10s or 12s 4400 packs. But I have a Banshee to finish first :D

    Aerobeez 40% extra prototype!?!?!

    You don't want to freeze your enemies as you fly by them? You know, spray them with water and it freezes as soon as it touches them... :rolleyes:

    Improving Video Footage

    For that price, if it does as it says, it's a bargain!!!! I've been shooting more videos lately.. Hmm... Does the software also allow basic editing like trimming clips, fitting music, or titles/credits? I could definitely use a software that was all inclusive!
