Yeah, I was just joking Chief. The dude glued this together with two King2 stabilizer sets. He was really happy with it, but I think it looks like fried ass.

I'm glad to see my strange sense of humor is good in here. Buncha RC freaks.

I just checked my UPS tracking and they took my EXI from Cali to Oregon instead of Florida and my delivery date was just extended a week. I usually avoid UPS, but with free shipping you don't get a choice. I guess the catch with free shipping is they don't necessarily ship it to your address. I bet the heli will be in real nice condition after traveling 6000 miles with an Ace Ventura style delivery service.

I need to work on my King2 and prep one of my bikes for sale anyway. Bah.

Very funny LOLchief

They did manage to get the package as far away from me as possible while remaining in the continental US. So I guess it's an accomplishment of sorts.

A bicycle, not a motorcycle. I do a lot of dirt jumping. It's a 2008 DK Gen Lee 24" with 7 spoke Skyways for you DJers. It's nice, but I ride my 26 all the time, so it's going to market to fund my helis.

We're a little slow here.....I might have to dig up the settings dor the DX7 and get them up. I flew the TH-57 last night, one flight without incident. I need to put the 58A up...it's been a while. Since the storm is comming in and we'll get crappy weather for about a week with the remanance pushing up into the midwest...I won't be flying for a spell. I haven't touched the new EXI-450...still in the box because I've been working on this (Phase3 F-16 EDF):

Oh come on Vic, we're not going to punish anyone for going off topic are we? I feel like we just moved down the flight line to the next discussion. I want to hear about what we're all doing

Bikes, (pedaled or powered), picture of some nice dozers, jets, ect... It shows we all have something in common

BTW Chief, I heard a great story from a Cobra pilot.... How they had all lined up in a nice line for parade, top brass present and a Chinook came in hard and turned sideways blowing them all out of wack. They were all taking shots at each other, it was great. The guys in the Chinook said that the Cobra pilots would give them hell until it came time to carry the beer to the party

Blessings!

Jay

I don't know about those two, but the Danlion 3500 works GREAT for me....using an 11T rhino pinion.
