    I know it'll go away, but for now it doesn't seem to be working at work, being a company computer I'm not going to mess with anything. I'll try it at home, Windows 10 just installed so I have to play with that anyways ;) EDIT: CTRL + F5 worked, can view the new site no problem now.

    Speak up and win!! We're turning ONE, time to celebrate!!

    What I like the most about GSN has got to be the community base. Everybody here is very well mannered and nothing but a bunch of fun to be around, lots of very pleasant conversations have been had and are to be had without all of the hostility associated with those who wish to fight and argue...

    The 5.2 Chrysler block may not be a super high HP engine (I think it makes about 230hp on a good day) but it does make a decent torque figure, considering how choked up it is due to emissions (300ft lb). Should pull a 6x12 with nothing but a few airplanes, a toolbox, and misc support equipment...

    ^Those vans have all kinds of additional fees and taxes tacked onto them here in California. Fits right into the Jeep like a glove!! My Jeep Grand Cherokee. It has a 5.2L in it, it'll pull a 6x12 no problem.

    Post your servo, receiver, and battery setups

    I may end up programming my aileron servos and running a Y harness on them to free up 2 channels. Would be a cleaner install. I may also fit a Y onto the rudder servos and program them for perfect geometry as well to free up an additional channel for an electronic ignition kill.

    Yup that's where Terry got them. Trying to tidy up my wiring before I post pictures of my install :oblong::D

    @Terryscustom where did you get the neat little blue boots to hold the servo wire?

    Been thinking more and more lately that I need to put this 100CC edge together instead of leaving it in the box. Have 2, 100CC toys, will need that trailer!!

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

    I may have to get a locking cabinet to lock my tools inside of. Maybe that'll keep them from walking off. :D

    Post your servo, receiver, and battery setups

    Interesting discussion in another thread about our electronics setups. Being that Hitec is limited to 9 channels, we have to use certain workarounds with 100cc+ airplanes in order to make our setups work properly without having to resort to using power or servo expansion components. Interested...

    Power systems/ Hitec A9?

    Servos are partially hand assembled which is why the splines do not center exactly the same. That is why you have to use either a servo programmer or sub trim in your transmitter in order to get them to be perfectly neutral. Which centerpoint are you using in the programmer? I'm assuming you're...

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

    I try to do this as desperately as I can, however it always seems that someone goes in there and takes tools and never returns them... :cautious:

    Power systems/ Hitec A9?

    A 'powersafe' style receiver with a heavy duty BUS inside and dual input leads is something that has come across our radar and could possibly be something in the works since there seems to be a demand for it, but I'm not aware of anything actually being considered as an addition to our receiver...
