    RedwingRC Pin and Flag with Hidden Dual Battery Redundancy Switch!

    I don't fly big distributed power systems, so these "remove before operation" pin flag cutoffs haven't attracted my attention… until now. I do fly some pretty large electric birds… 50-60cc equivalent, on 12S with 100-160A speed controls. Radio systems are all independently powered via a pretty...

    That's the full-back artwork detail for our t-shirts and hoodies this year… (a version may also see physical implantation in skin someday!) -Case

    BeaverBro 3D fun-fly - May 29 to June 1, 2014 - Powers, OR

    Come one, come all to the 3rd annual BeaverBro 3D Fun-fly in Powers, Oregon! (or is it 4th annual? We have so much fun at these things, I've forgotten how many we've put on now!) Anyway… The South Coast R/C Squadron is hosting another ProBro event, but don't let that scare you away! Just...

    BeaverBro fun-fly - May 29 to June 1, 2014 - Powers, OR

    "I don't fly that three-dee stuff." "I don't own a profile." "I'm busy washing my hair that weekend." I've heard all the excuses, and honestly, they just don't add up! BeaverBro is simply a fun-fly. The only rules are: be safe, no left-hand circles, and HAVE FUN! Beginning Thursday, May...

    Discussion Attempting applying monokot over ultracote with Windex

    The other cool trick is to Windex a sheet of mono kote to glass (like my workbench top). Then you can lay a design from your printer over the top, cut it all out with the new #11 blade, weed the scraps out, and use Glad Press n Seal like transfer tape to pick up the design. Then Windex it to the...

    Discussion Attempting applying monokot over ultracote with Windex

    You always seal the edges when Windexing Mono… If you don't want to use heat, some trim solvent does just fine too. I've Windexed big stripes like those, and just did a few canopies on profiles. The overnight dry is good, but not necessary if you've done a good job with the squeegee to remove...

    Eugene Oregon 3D Bash & Monster Fest

    Hey Mike! Dates? You don't mean THIS Thursday/Friday, do you? That would be TODAY… Hey, speaking of winter flying and events, is anyone coming down to Woodland/Davis for the NorCal ProBro on 2/21-23? I was thinking of leaving North Bend Thursday, be in Sacramento/Davis by dinner time, fly...

    WrongWayRc 50-60cc GBR (GeeBeeRacer) Build thead

    Richard- Great points RE: epoxy, GG, and vibration from the engine. It's worth noting, that all CA can be successfully used if building a big electric, but honestly, at 17# flat, and a 6 month+ build, I didn't save either weight nor time going all CA on my WWRC 50cc LamSuk! -Case

    Wrong Way Rc profile kits now in stock for the build season.

    My WWRC 20cc LamBach and 50cc LamSuk both have a hatch or magnetically secured hatches on top of one wing panel. Open hatch, tighten or loosen 1/4-20 nylon wing nuts to cinch the wings snug up against the fuse. The EE60 and EEv2 use a ply root-rib doubler with 3 tabs external to the wing. One...

    12S power systems ideas and options

    Ummm… There is! WrongWayRC 50cc Laminar Sukhoi. Mine sits just under 17# AUW, and is a monster with: Scorpion 5545-150kV Castle HV Edge 120A Value Hobby Elite Series 6S/5000 - 40C or 60C (2 in series to make 12S) Xoar 25x12 PJN-series I like the setup so much, I'm seriously considering...

    HazzBro's EEv2 / VVRC 40cc twin

    Hey, Richard! Do the WWRC kits come with those super-fly wheel pants? Y'all might want to explain that Williams Wing option to the folks following along. I'm starting with the standard v2 wing as it's got a bit more area and the twin install will add a little extra weight. I'll bet a lot of...

    HazzBro's EEv2 / VVRC 40cc twin

    Brian- Where'd you find an OS 32cc gasser? I have an OS GT-22 going on my WWRC20cc LamBach, and an OS GT-33 going on my KMP Beaver… never seen a 32 though. -Case

    HazzBro's EEv2 / VVRC 40cc twin

    There's an interesting point I hadn't thought to bring up... Maybe Richard can comment on whether any changes were made? My kit is an original HazzBro kit from 3DorBust.com... These have been unobtanium for a while, and mine had a more-than-moderate layer of dust when I started! WWRC worked...

    HazzBro's EEv2 / VVRC 40cc twin

    Stalled for a busy (and over-spent) Christmas. But I did spend 9 hours fixing out of order washers and dryers today so that work can go on autopilot for a week or so. Should have quite a bit more progress to show as we get into my 39th year... - Case

    HazzBro's EEv2 / VVRC 40cc twin

    As promised, here's the pics of yesterday's progress… The fuse is actually complete, I just didn't get a pic. I'll chisel it all up from the board in the morning and start in on wings… -Case

    HazzBro's EEv2 / VVRC 40cc twin

    I had to step away from the workbench to take a phone call and noticed folks were looking at this thread… I've got to say this is one of the quickest and most enjoyable profile kit builds I've done. - An absolutely HUGE portion of the stick work is CNC cut, there's very little stick cutting -...

    HazzBro's EEv2 / VVRC 40cc twin

    It's been a busy week here with holidays approaching (and my builds are easily stalled!....Squirrel...) I've got the chin-section framed out, and should be able to finish up the fuse later today. - Case

    High-Voltage/High-Amp "arming" switch?

    BINGO! That's the ticket... -Case

    High-Voltage/High-Amp "arming" switch?

    In concept, I want something like the ArmSafe arming switch... Here's the problem: - ArmSafe uses a Deans Ultra plug which is technically only rated for 80A. If a 10S or 12S system were to go live with, say, a reversed throttle; or the throttle stick got bumped while connecting batteries, WOT...
