    What motor would you use in a 50cc size?

    Thanks for letting me know...I had no idea the DA-60 was only $14 more than a Mintor 60! I will go with a DA-60 for sure at that price...that's a no brainer!

    Glasses for RC

    I wear glasses at all time; last year I purchased a new pair of prescription sunglasses and when I did so I asked the optometrist to tailor them to flying (R/C) and driving, since that is my primary use for them. They were happy to oblige. These are non-transition lenses. Don't remember if...

    The Hardest Thing To Figure Out

    Glad I could help. I'm hoping to get an 8ch FHSS-3 this winter for my 71" Slick Gasser....because I want to use HV servos and I'd like for the RX to be able to handle the HV. In addition to the higher frame rate, HV is the other nice feature of the FHSS-3 RX's. But it comes at a price...in...

    The Hardest Thing To Figure Out

    Frank, Thanks for putting together this info; this kind of comparison is very helpful. After your last reply, I thought about it some more and realized you are probably pricing out the FHSS-3 RX's, which are more expensive. For most applications, the FHSS-1 RX's are quite satisfactory. Here is...

    72" 3DHS Extra 330 Build Log

    subscribed....looking good. Links to attachments did not work. Gary, did moving the thread to the build log area cause the links to be broken?

    The Hardest Thing To Figure Out

    Frank, I'm a long time Airtronics user...had the old Vanguard radios back in the day, then got an RDS 8000 a year or so ago, and then last winter I got my SD-10G. I love the SD-10G...it can do way more than I could ask for. Not sure what you don't like about the looks of the SD-10G...but it...

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    No - I"m guessing it was for Josh's own plane.

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    I knew that answer to that question....and I think I know the answer to another question...who's 70" Slick will this be going on? ;) Unfortunately, I was out flying all weekend and therefore didn't see the post in time to answer first! Congrats Rick!

    Discussion aileron differential??

    Got it...thanks for your reply. I'm with you - I don't have the reflexes of Joe or any of these young pilots, and my definition of "good enough" is probably much closer to yours than Joe's! :)

    Discussion aileron differential??

    I'm confused Space Bat...your post seems to indicate that you are quoting Joe and that he did his aileron differential test flying straight and level at 2/3rds throttle, but I looked at Joe's post and I don't see that wording..in fact, I see him specifically stating he was in a power off down...
