So from another simple (I like KISS) perspective on the battery issue, I fly PLENTY of 4.8 batteries with 2.4 BUT I only use high capacity packs. That means (to me) a pack higher than 1500 mAh and...

Tower Corsair Brushless Rx-R 39"

Has anyone gotten a replacement propeller for the Tower Corsair Rx-R Brushless 39" Corsair? It's a really fun model and for the price, it's a gem.

RE: Home Made CA Kicker

So one thing I do to extend the life of that little bottle of kicker is to put it in an old Visine or similar bottle, clearly label it and just drip it where needed. You,d surprised how much you can...

RE: Home Made CA Kicker

So if you're really concerned about the cost, buy a decent size refill bottle ($8 to $10) and get an out of date Visine, Natural Tears, Nose drops (etc. squeeze bottle). REMOVE THE LABEL CLEARLY AND...

RE: Great Planes Escapade .40 ARF

That's interesting. i thought maybe the howling was from the wheel pants. It's a cool sound anyway. A friend of mine built a large scale Citabria a few years ago and it howled the same way and quit...

RE: Great Planes Escapade .40 ARF

It still howls either way.
I enjoy doing high speed, low dives to hear it. It's an amazing li'l flier and has become my favorite out of 14 models that I have. It can be a lamb or a monster,...

RE: Great Planes Escapade .40 ARF

I made a temporary canopy when I lost one. The back order time kept extending. All in all it took over 3 months to get it. Pretty rediculous. If I hadn't made one, I would have missed a huge amount...

RE: Great Planes Escapade .40 ARF

RE: Saito shuts off

Visual looks the same on the smoke. A 12 x 7 is smaller than what I'm running on a 13 x 6, right? I know the first time I tried a 12 x 5 graupner full paddle and it went higher RPM than the 13 x 6. I...

Saito shuts off

RE: RPM vs PROP

I have a FA65 that I bought used and rebuilt with new piston ring, valves and valve springs. Bench testing, it turns a 13 - 6 prop about 10350. I was pretty surprised with that.

Eagle shaped gider

Can anyone tell me the manufacture or vendor that has the eagle or hawk shaped glider? It's probably around 36 to 39" wing span with brushless motor.
