    I did my lowest crankshaft to date... problem was that the throttle servo block broke loose and killed the engine. There was just not quite enough altitude to make it back to the runway.

    Hi Yoda. Welcome to the site. I got a chance to fly the addictionx earlier this week. I didnt love it overall although I have to say it was probably one of the easiest planes to land I have ever flown. It really resisted being in a harrier attitude though which is the at the basic...

    72" Extra 330SC

    The v1 planes were made to fit the side carb dle 30. When the rear carbs came out and ran better they moved the firewall as you noted. My 70 slick had the same issue and we cut it off and moved it back. It really wasnt as hard as you might be imagining it to be. Measure back from the front...

    Our very own Gyro is now a Hitec sponsored pilot!

    Wasn't meant that way lol... Gary does not crash a lot of planes... he just buys and sells a lot of planes. I have bought two from him in the past year or so. I know a lot of other guys have bought planes from him as well. The ones I have gotten from him were well-built and a fair (sometimes...

    The Rolling Harrier

    Thanks Mike... it is definitely a Lay person version of the move... I guess I am just showing that a totally average guy can get them down to some extent without the kind of time and cash investment the pros put in.

    My moment yesterday was making low high speed passes down the runway. They were all upright at first till I started to feel comfortable. Then I did one with a slow roll to inverted that was like 6 ft in front of me and the low wing was about a foot high. For some guys that is routine but that...

    I had a great day flying yesterday and made it home without breaking anything for a change :) I have the aerobeez 30cc slick flying pretty nice now. Ever have those moments that you re-live in your mind over and again? What was yours?

    Need Assistance In Motor Selection Please!

    Boy that low kv on 3s with a 9x5... we really are talking about a LOW power setup. Like Aeroplayin said, it is funny for us 3d guys to talk about it because it really gets us out of our normal range of thought. Thanks for the thread so far, I have had fun following it ;)

    FAA 2014-0396- interpretation of new rule for Model Aircraft

    Thanks Darren, I think one of the biggest issues with the new rule relates to fpv flying. I think what you have included is awesome but I still want to eventually fly long-distance fpv (a mile or so). I would really like to see reasonable boundaries being set for that (no flying over populated...

    I feel the 98 db restriction is plenty generous... I might think about piping it for more power though! Btw... that field is in North Las Vegas on the very edge of town.
