    Crack Yak Mini!

    Looking forward to hearing what you think. Based on my previous purchases from TH i have no doubt this one is a winner. I'll probably get one after my current project is done.

    Hey Guys!

    Aaaah yes! How could i forget! My 35 will be here monday and i'm really excited. I'll definitely have a lot of questions for you since this will be my first gas plane :scaredchair:

    Hey Guys!

    Just got some 20 AWG twisted heavy duty servo extensions from TDRC and they look like they're VERY high quality. I also got some extension safety locks and i can fly with confidence. Gotta love the SUPER FAST shipping too :pompom:

    What's on your bench?

    When the UPS drops it off on Monday i'll begin work on a 78'' Extra from Extreme Flight :thumbup:

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    I don't know why the website says 300+ ounces of torque when the manual says 350+ for ailerons and elevators and 450+ for rudder.

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    Indeed they are but it has been said by a few people that they won't be enough for the ailerons or rudder(according to the manual they should be fine for ailerons but not the rudder)....Now this is taking about blowback at high speed with a DA60 on a pipe.

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    If i already had them i would use them on the elevators or if i wanted to save some money. I would rather use 2270s. Looks like Neal pushes the servos pretty hard and you can see he has more than enough authority..

    Recommendations - EF or PA

    I owned V1 and killed it in a dozen flights. V2 is awesome though and i have over 400 flights on it!

    78'' Extra

    Yeah i'm hoping it works out. I would like to eventually move the engine over to the MXS when it's out in a gas version. If i don't like the EME i'll get a DA 35 when it comes out. The EME 60 looks great from what i've seen but we'll see how the 35 does. This will be a very slow build so the DA...

    78'' Extra

    Not yet. I'll be taking my time with this build. Plane will be here Monday and the engine should be shipping out the same day.

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    If i get this plane i'm going with either futaba bls 157s or savox 2270sg for the rudder and ailerons...i'd use 7955s on the elevators though. This guy is using the EME 60 on the stock muffler and savox 2270SGs all the way around http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I75MfPMKmsw&feature=youtu.be BTW...

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    I've been reading a lot on the EME 60 and it looks VERY promising. At half the cost of the DA it really does bring it into a more affordable range. You can't skimp on servos on this plane though. It's almost as big as the 104'' Extra but only has one aileron servo per wing. Straight from...

    Question? Which wattmeter

    20 bucks!? Good deal man. Maybe i should have ordered one with my extensions. There is always next time. I'll be buying more from TDRC. Lots of good stuff there :thumbup:

    78'' Extra

    I've been thinking about servos and decided i'll go with HS-7955s for the fact that i can transfer them to a 50cc airframe in the future and the titanium gears should last a long time.

    64" mxs exp

    This is hands down my favorite plane. Whenever i need to sell a plane to fund a project i don't even consider the MXS. I hope i always have one. It does everything the way i like it. Snaps clean, draws nice lines, and is a 3D beast. Ever since i got it i have noticed my flying style switching...
