you go around bashing BVM every opportunity you get, you've never owned one and all your posts about them just show your ignorance on the subject.

I like all the BVM are the best posts......
Some of us don't like a massive mark up because of a name....
Like I said.....There have been a bunch of BVM horror stories too, but they seem to disappear in a hurry.
I'll buy others over BVM any day....I agree I like scale more......but I'm not paying $300.00 plus on top of what it costs for a sticker.

he is entitled to his opinion, but his opinion is not based on facts, he's never owned/built a BVM product. he's bashed Uncle Bob, we got his point he's a BVM hater, let it go, he doesn't have to come into every thread and post a hate message, this title is about Fly Eagle.

You say that we have got his point........ Do you mean the Royal we because I have never read his point before and I for one was happy to read it. You seem to think that it is your place to tell people what to do on here.... Are you a moderator or do you own this forum.... If not perhaps it is you who needs to let things go generally.
I am glad the OP is getting on well with his J10

You also use the term everyone as if you speak for all. Is this the case
Have a nice day and happy flying

First, I really don't like your false assumptions and accusations which is typical with your kind.......I really don't like the long list of. "well if you only bought BVM" on every other post by you or someone like you.....And, you're going to complain about me?............I'm going to put you on the block list with the rest of the shills.....What other connection to BVM do you have we don't know about?....Are you just another BVM employee or family member who praises them no matter what? Get stuff for free for blasting people who don't bow at the altar of BVM?
If it's about Fly Eagle why did you have to post about how much better BVM is??? Which you and your other BVM blind followers do in almost every post about another manufacturer. Almost every one has you or some other BVM blind follower posting something to the extent of ...."Well, that's why I only buy BVM".......come on.....pot calling the kettle black? sheesh
No I'm a supporter of all, and don't have the "if it ain't BVM it's garbage attitude is what I am responding to. No, I WILL NEVER buy BVM. I won't buy it because of the ridiculous mark up for a sticker that says BVM. Yea they make good quality stuff, that has had its share of problems too, and because of people like you in the the if it ain't BVM it's crap attitude people and the mark up I won't buy one.
Not a hater, just a lot smarter than the people that pour their cash into a model that isn't that much better, but has a $300.00 plus sticker on it.
Once again......the failure of everyday Americans to understand basic economics. For example.....if it weren't for people like you BVM would have to lower their prices due to competition, but they have their band of blindly loyal followers that will continue to pour cash into their coffers, so they don't have to.
My point is economics, if you want to call me a hater fine by me I don't care. It's like there will still be a mass of people who will just blindly follow into the voting booth in 2012 and and vote for the same people who have been making things worse for the last 5 years and blame it on the other guy. Same mentality....that's my complaint. All the BVM "lover" posts are the same. If it ain't BVM it's not worth your money......and you complain about me.

Actually, its you that doesn't understand basic economics. The right price for a product is whatever the market can bear.

RE: Flyeaglejet J10 1/6th 3D Version.. My experience
Thanks for all the well wishes everyone. To those posting crap please start another thread and keep this thread on topic......
Here is another video of yesterdays flying. Its a bit of a compilation and my main aim was to practice different approach and takeoff methods using diff flap settings, angle of attack etc.
The CG has been moved from 300mm to 285mm (dry) and it appears to fly in with alot more authority and less tail wag.
Mario I would definately aim for a 290mm CofG instead of the recommended 300mm CofG for your first flight. As the fuel runs out the J10 does start to become more tail heavy.
The 10mm change of the CofG made a huge difference on the balance stand and in the air. I guess the delta wing is more sensitive to CofG changes than other aircraft maybe??
Enjoy!

Sadly, this member has some serious social issues.

The "FAIR PRICE" is what other people are willing to pay for it. Anything else (like a government forcing a company to charge a certain price) is socialism. I think its great to have an alternative to BVM on some products. If a competitors product at a lower price is good then it WILL have an affect on BVM prices only in the since that BVM will loose market share on that competing product and eventually they will either lower their prices to match or stop selling the item all together if it doesn't meet their expected profitability. But at the same time, there are other inferior products out there that make BVM shine because they illuminate how much BETTER many of the products he sells are compared to the alternative. There will always be people willing to pay a little more for higher quality. Greed has nothing to do with it. Greed can never carry a product in the long term. People will only pay what a product is worth in the long run.
No, what is wrong with the UK right now is socialism. It's eating the heart out of the country. As Margaret Thatcher said, "The problem with socialism is eventually you run out of other peoples money". Forcing a company to pay a "fair price" is taking away other peoples money and it's stifling innovation. I bet you believe in the statement, "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need (or needs)" correct?
Oh, and congrats bainy on the maidens. Hat tip on the landings!

Hi Bainy 77,
Can you share with us some photos of your set up inside the cockpit and inside the engine bay please.
I noticed in one of your earlier photos of the wing servos you had plastic servo arms, are you still using same plastic arms for flying?

Hi Bainy
Awesome your machine and video. Are you still happy with the jet? Does it fly stable and is the quality accurate?What's your experience since then?
If you possess another video of your j-10 performance, it would be very appreciated if you could share with us.
Thanks a lot,
Cheers Manuel

RE: Flyeaglejet J10 1/6th 3D Version.. My experience
Manuel,
The J10 is still going strong. I have had well close to 150 flights and the aircraft has been carefully inspected along the way (including using a camera borescope) with no issues found so far.
The J10 flies nice which ever way its flown. From strong 3D style flying to gracious scale flying its the pride of my fleet.
Don't be fooled by the delta wing, its far from a trainer to fly by any means. (especially landing on our local field carrier style runways). Once you get used to flying the bird, its very rewarding. And Kudos to the Kingtech 170 installed, faultless runtime from day 1 and still going strong.
All the initial frustration and time getting this model to the stage of years of flying has definitely paid off.
I have had taken a lot of videos and photos of this model, I will go through and provide an updated video and picture display shortly. (A lot of people have passed on praise on how well this model presents when photographed in flight)
Cheers
Ian
