    10cc 3D gasser --- An exercise with a VH Sabre-X 51" and a Evolution 10GX

    Looks like you were right about them announcing the 15cc engine this week http://www.horizonhobby.com/products/15gx-15cc-91-cu-in-gas-engine-EVOE15GX I'd love to have a 60'' gasser! The Sabre is coming together nicely, can't wait to hear the flight report.

    Twisted Hobbys 32" Crack Laser!

    I think i'm going to pick one up in a week or two when i get my tax return. I've been beating my Extra Slick to death and it need to be replaced. This sounds like the one! I know everyone is crazy about the Crack Yak but i really loved the Extra Slick. If this is like putting the two together it...

    60" Extra 300 EXP

    I loved using a 15x8 on this plane. I also had the motrolfly on 4315-480 on 6s and it came down very cool. The 15x7 was good too but i liked the extra speed with the 15x8 though. I would start with a 15x7 or 15x8 but a 16x7 or 16x8 would be fine just watch the amps.

    Extreme Flight Owners Thread

    Thank you! The Yak is super fun and i really wanted something i could throw in the car with the wings on. The plane does amazingly axial rolls and i love that about it. I wish i could get a 91'' Extra but by the time i have enough money for that the 91'' Yak will be out and i might go with...

    Extreme Flight Owners Thread

    Thanks! I learned my rifle rollers by starting in a rolling harrier and i would slowly raise the throttle and make the stick movements smaller until it was going full throttle with full aileron deflection. It's really all about practice though. Just try and do them on your foamies and you'll...

    servo repair question

    Grease the new gears if you replace them yourself. You might be able to take out the gears, rotate them, and put them back in. Sometimes that'll solve the slop until that side wears too. If it's not an excessive amount of slop i wouldn't worry about it.

    That's awesome. I've never maxed out my PL6 and i usually charge around 20A. Nothing in my setup gets even slightly warm. How was the PL8 handling being maxed out? It's great being able to charge multiple packs in such a short time. I've definitely increased how much i can fly since i got my PL6

    60" Edge EXP Build and Fly

    Glad you finally got to fly the Edge! Sounds like it was worth the wait. The Edge is the only 60'' from EF i haven't flown but since the post stall on the Extra and MXS are so solid i'd imagine the Edge must be ridiculously stable. I heard the Laser is going to fly like a nice combination of a...

    Just to clarify EME isn't a copy of DA. Someone pointed out the differences over on FG. I cant find the post now but definitely not copy. Skywing used a scheme that is based on a full scale plane so they aren't using schemes developed by other ARF manufacturers but scale schemes and their...

    Wattaplane/Skywing 48" EPP/PLY hybrid Slick

    Like wedoitall said, the landing gear bolts broke. The prop broke too but that was it. I did get a small grass stain on the cowl :p A balsa plane would need a new cowl, canopy, and would have broken some wood in the rudder.
