    Ignition - off topic

    I had posted some questions on this forum about building a Velox. There was a lot of discussion about engine selection... Somewhere in the thread(s) there was some discussion about replacement ignitions. I have a Brison 2.4 in a Cap232 that I am struggling with. I've had ignition trouble...

    35CC 3D Plane

    I'm finally ready to pull the trigger on my first serious 3D airframe. I was looking very seriously at the Volex with a 20cc DLE. I was ready to pull the trigger and a friend who has one said the plane works with the 20cc DLE, but it's much better with the 30cc. I've got the bowman ring for...

    Carbon Fiber Landing Gear for AW .60-.90 Extra 260

    I'm looking to build my first semi-serious 3D airplane. I'm building a smaller plane so that I can land it comfortably at a smaller field. Anyway, after a lot of back and forth, I've settled on an Aeroworks Extra 260. A friend of mine has the Extra 300. He build it used. It has a carbon...

    Small Gas 3D

    You can skip to the bottom and look at the question. Sorry, I'm long winded. I've been on a quest to build a small (emphasis on small) 3D gas plane. There is a field within 10 miles of my house that is a little on the small side. Anything over a 60 size and people start getting nervous...

    Phoenix Edge 540 .90-1.20?

    I'm looking at buying my first 3D gas plane. I'm looking at a Phoenix Edge 540 .90-1.20 with a DLE 20. I have a Cap232 120 with a 40cc engine, so this is not my first gas plane. I'm looking for a little smaller plane for a smaller field I want to fly. I know nothing about Phoenix. Is this...
