    Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

    Julio, I have probably built more than 15 of these which includes about 6 for myself. It's a great flying plane that is meant more for the low and slow 3D but will do everything. I have done both 3 and 2 servos per aileron. For low and slow guys 2 is fine but faster snap require 3 in the...

    Joe Hunt RC 3D fly in!! November 4-6

    Sooooo............. I am looking at the Riverside RC Club website and they list local hotels but they also say they are not safe. The links are I believe outdated as they link to hotels of different names and different areas. What is the close ideal choice hotel for this event? I prefer...

    ZDZ-180 and ZDZ USA

    I wouldn't trade all three of mine for any other engines. I have never felt so confident in an engine every time I take off than I do with my ZDZ's. Nothing come close to comparing the power too. Joe is top notch customer service :):):)

    Joe Nall, Friday Pics

    I was helping Tavis that night and standing to the left of Jase and John, next to Tavis. My stomach just fell when I saw that happen. Only Jase can tell you what really happened but here is what I can tell you. There was no wind that night and the smoke was just hanging thick. The planes seem to...

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    Tavis's plane is completely different. It is my big aileron thin wing, thin tail section extra so it requires lots of servos. The only time I ever noticed one of my 6 Pilot Extra's hunt on KE is when I had it to tail heavy. The Pilot Extra does not need to be tail heavy to fly all out 3D. In...

    A quick reminder

    @Terryscustom nailed it regarding sponsored pilots. I think there are only a handful of pilots that get everything free most are team pilots that get discounts for several reasons. Some might be because they buy a lot and post how to use or what the advantage may be to using it. Now there are...

    Pilot RC 107" Extra 330SC

    As I said he made a switch just a short while back to the clear and those are the weaker ones. He is now going back to the better hinges. If you need hinges to replace the clear just contact him.
