RE: evolution engines?

Here's my .02 cents worth. Keep in mind I'm a natural born cynic (and an aerospace engineer) so you've been warned.

To say that Evo's are just rebadged MVVS's is incorrect in my opinion. The...

You hit the nail on the head hilleyja--I routinely plug my father's Hitec Spectra into my 9C's frequency module's place to fly his aircraft with no-ill effects. The only problem with this is the unit...

RE: CA Models 40 Size Epsilon

So just to clarify even the second container with Epsilon's is due by April 1st? I've had my Epsilon 60 on order since January and it'd be nice to know there's a light at the end of the tunnel!

RE: Futaba T14MZ price is posted at Tower

Bottom line: If all the mixes of your 9C or 9303 still doesn't make your plane fly straight, you'd be better off spending the $2200 on a new plane instead of a 14zap.

RE: Chip Hyde Extra and Planes plus Extra. Same planes?

Looks to me like Planes Plus may be taking the CA Model's Extra from kit or ARC form and finishing them to a higher level of completion--they all have that CA trademark of a huge vertical stab...

RE: Ultra-RC Icepoint Anyone Hear?

This aircraft looks verryyyy similar to a Hirobo Stream, especially the cowl and underbelly.

Perhaps its a Hirobo renamed or the design rights have been sold off to a different company ??

RE: Wild hare extra horiz stab problem

I had an Edge from the first patch of planes and unless something has radically changed since then, they are total and complete junk. The stab was badly out of level--tip to tip, it was 1.5" out of...

Still undecided on engine choice...hoping the DA-75 becomes a reality soon. If it's anything like it's big sisters Extra & Giles this plane will be a HUGE SUCCESS....

Sig ARFS are a little pricey--but they are worth it. They often times come with Dubro and/or Sullivan hardware most of which can actually be used. (Though they still insist on cheesy plastic...

Hirobo Stream 50

Hi everyone. Anybody out there have any experience with the Stream 50 from Hirobo? Does it use pull-pull on the rudder, are the retracts reasonably strong, how much does your completed plane weigh?...
