    3DHS 58" Edge 540

    Fred - I was there and I remember that flight. I didn't realize at the time that the elevator servo locked up! :( That is an awesome paint job - looks like a stock cowl! Nicely done.

    3DHS 58" Edge 540

    I was running a 6S setup with the Motrolfly 4315-480 and it was not bad...I was using 2800's (2x3S2800's) because that's what I had...if I did it again I would go with heavier batteries...can't imagine it with 4S batteries...no surprise that you are still tail heavy. The paint stick option is a...

    where did yours end up?

    3DHS 58" Edge 540

    how are you guys getting away with 1/4" standoffs? I can't believe the Motrolfly 4315 spinner back plate even clears the cowl with those?

    Who makes small balsa 3D planes?

    Not sure about QUALITY balsa planes in that size range...except for 3DHS and EF, there are not many other good choices. If you are looking for something similar, there are a number of EPP/balsa/plywood full fuse airframes, such as this one...

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    yep - that's the stuff also good to strengthen weak landing gear areas and glass motor boxes for more strength. :D

    3DHS 58" Edge 540

    I used "custom" standoffs...they are 7/16" in length; I'm pretty sure a 1/2" length would work just fine too...you can find nylon spacers at your local hardware store. This was just what I had on hand.

    hmmm....you've got me thinking...I have a Saito 1.15ci 4 stroke slimer engine sitting on a Twist 60 that I don't really fly anymore...I bet that engine would toss this airframe around pretty good..... ....hmmm..... and I still love the sound of a 4 stroke motor....

    New 20cc Profile coming by the end of July--65" Extra 330

    well, that's a good start! how did you ensure that any right/down thrust was not lost when you made that bracket? and in pic 4 it appears that your prop backplate is *very* close to the top and bottom of the forward engine mounts...how much clearance will you have for the prop> I'll be...
