Anyone know if hobbytown carries CA hinges that will work on the rudder of my 60'' MXS? The hinges i ordered won't be here until Saturday. I want to bring it to Lodi Huckfest on Friday but I tore out the rudder hinges. I could try and fix my Extra too. Otherwise all i got is my 47'' Osiris :(

Just Do It
Every time this year we host a large charity event at our place. We usually bring in Tour Golfers but last year we had our neighbor Lockheed bring in an F35 simulator. As I am an instrument rated fixed wing (civilian flying) and rotor rating (military flying) so they let me take off and land of a carrier as well as engage and destroy a vessel at sea. By popular demand they are back and this time the are setting up a F22 Raptor. I am scheduled at 5 to fly it.

Just off a 30 minute phone call with one ************* from RCG. We cleared the air between us, and I've gotta say that he seems like a nice enough guy over the phone...
He explained to me the whole posting on RCG issue as this: No STAFF from 3DRCForums is allowed to post links to our site on his. So, that said, it seems that someone in the fly low thread over there seems to hit the report button anytime our site is mentioned, so that also may be where some of the issues are coming from.

My take: Since we are a competing website, he (rightfully so) is entitled to ask us not to stand on his front lawn with a billboard about our site, and we (3DRCForum staff) will gladly oblige. Now if other people want to post or discuss this site there, that is up to them... Not my place to tell people how/what to post on RCG.

Now, back to you regular scheduled programming.... :)
Just want to make sure I understand how things work. On RCG, if you get reported you get points and if you get enough points you get suspended. Right so far? Any where along the way you can appeal to the mods and may get your points reduced if you win? On this forum I don't see any way to report a post but if I tic off the owner, he blocks my ip address with no appeal. Is that the way it works here?

Sweet no one has been banned for ticking off gyro. That's my new personal mission. :) just kidding. Lol. This place is awesome. And everyone should ignore all posts from me tonight as I've had a few beverages this evening. :)
