Status: online 		I have a YS 110S that was gonna be for my next plane but the guys at the field convinced me to get something like the pulse before jumping straight to an edge 540 from the alpha 60 lol. So my question is do you think the YS would be to much for this airframe? I would prefer to not have to buy another engine unless absoultly necessary. I know it will be a bit ballistic but I do know how to not fly full throttle all the time [)] Also I already have some good mg digital servos that were bought for the edge I can put in this so it will have plenty of servo power to keep up with the extra engine.

Whadya think?

Thanks
Rob

powerful and might be too much for the
Pulse. My main concern is the
vibration that YS's put out. You might
want to think about beefing the firewall
but, don't take my word for it. That would certainly be one of the most awesome
Pulses out there if you could swing it!

Status: offline 		I have had the Pulse XT 60 on back order at my LHS for several months and I am still flying the 40 sized Pulse. I have not decided on which engine to use - the OS 75 AX or a Saito 120, I have both. Any thoughts after flying yours with the Saito 100 would be greatly appreciated. I usally take this plane to the field no matter what else I take with me. It is a pleasure to fly and it has been a good test bed for breaking in the engines for my Dual Ace twin. Hangar 9 got this one just about perfect - sort of a replacement for the GP Super Sport.

Status: online 		Lookin good Craigss, I was at my LHS the other day and I had him call to confirm these had not been delayed again. They said they were still on for the first week of May for the fast start dealers or w/e they call them. I would like to hear how yours is flying with the saito 100 and how well you think it can handle a bigger engine or a smaller one. I have an evo .61, saito 82 and a ys 110s that I could put on it. I am thinking the saito 82 would be the best but I dont want it to be underpowered. I would prefer not to use the evo since its on my alpha trainer and I would like to try and sell that as a RTF package.

GL with the maden!

Any update to when the Pulse XT 60 will be ready for purchase?


Surpisingly enough I ordered and paid for my Pulse 60 from a US Hobby Shop back in February 08 and was still waiting till a week ago when I just happened to revisit a Hobby Shop in Australia on line that I used to purchase a lot of my gear from till about 12 months ago when the $AUD began to rise and they couldn't compete on price or delivery,and here was the Pulse 60 ready to go,couldn't beleive it,quickly cancelled the order in the US and got this one delivered,even cost wise was within $5.00 0f what I was going to pay in the US and delivered out here
I just was lucky,can't believe they have pushed back delivery "AGAIN" in the US
Cheers
PS Can't wait to maiden this bird in the morning,I've run it up and taxied it around the paddocks at home here,was so tempted to launch it

Status: online 		Take it for what its worth but when I heard that they were delayed again I went to the LHS and had the owner call (last thursday 4/29). His sales rep said that they were still good for May 1st and that he should have them sometime in the first week in may. I was standing right by him when he called and he is a friend of mine and wouldnt lie to me about the delivery date on something. I can't vouch for the sales rep on the other end but I cant see why he would lie to one of his dealers when he specificly called and said he heard reports of delays on the internet and he had a customer concerened about the delivery date. He is one of the quick start or fast start dealers or w/e they call it so some dealers might not be getting them at the same time. The sales rep told him that the 40 size arf are back ordered till the end of mayish (but the 40 pnp is in stock) so maybe thats where the mix up is comming from not sure. Anyway I cant wait till it gets here! I will report in as soon as I get mine

Status: offline 		I should have pre-ordered! How does the supply look? Is there enough in this first shipment that after the pre-orders are filled some will still be available? I would love to find one sitting on the shelf at one of my local hobby stores.

Status: offline 		Took the new bird out to the field today,had a fly of it's "Little Brother" first then fired up the Saito and launched it,just awesome
Had to put in a few clicks of left aileron and a couple of clicks of down elevator and I was flying "Hands Off' straight away
Heaps of power with the 100 and a 14x8 prop
Goes vertical after rolling out approx 10 meters
Just a joy to fly,a Mate of mine was at the field today,he flys at a lot of comps and is an excellent pilot,gave it to him for a fly a couple of times,nearly had to steal it back so I could have another fly
He's off to order one in the morning
Put in a couple of photos
First on is at the field early today and the second is the new "Bird" with it's "Little Brother"

Yes, they are here. I also stopped at the LHS and saw them. Difference is I bought one and a Saito 100 to go with it. I have a bunch of the 821 recommended servos and a couple of AR6200 receivers in the drawer.

I have done absolutely nothing today since I picked up the Pulse at mid day except work on the Pulse. I was trying to get it ready to take
