RE: ESM, Ever Soaring Models Any Good?

I've just started on my SBD Dauntless from ESM. It looks nice from 5 feet away, just dont get to close! Instructions are terrible. Hardware is weak like many Chinese arf's. Most of the retracts I've...

RE: Power hd 1501mg - servo arms not Futaba!

I have a friend who tells me that he had a few of the 1501's that would accept a Futaba arm rather easily, but others he got had to be forced on. Of the 7 that I received none of them will accept...

RE: Power hd 1501mg - servo arms not Futaba!

OK - thanks guys. These have 23 splines and the shaft is 5mm. So it appears that no other arms are going to fit these. I'll use the arms that came with them. Bob - no surprise here, other than they...

RE: Power hd 1501mg - servo arms not Futaba!

Several different arms are supplied with these servos. I want to use a longer heavy duty plastic arm such as Dubro etc. These servos are really hi-torque and the arms that come with them are not only...

Power hd 1501mg - servo arms not Futaba!

I've just purchased 6 Power hd 1501mg's. These are hi torque metal gear analog units. They are advertised as using Futaba compatible arms. Futaba arms do not fit mine. Nor do Hitec or JR. The splines...

RE: SEAGULL YAK 54 .90 SIZE AND CRRC PRO 26CC GAS VERSUS EVOLUTION 100NT

Is anyone flying a DLE 20cc gas on this plane? It seems like it might be a bit heavy to have really good performance with this motor.

RE: Seagull edge 540 60 - gas engine?

Thanks guys. Can anyone make any other recommendations for airplanes suitable for the DLE 20cc? It looks like this motor makes almost, if not more power than some of the 26cc engines. Looks like it's...

Seagull edge 540 60 - gas engine?

I'm looking to get into small gassers. I've been looking at the Seagull edge 540 60 size. They list the weight as being close to 9 lbs. Do you think a dle 20cc would do the job on this plane or do I...

RE: ESM twin otter

I forgot to mention that I found the instruction book in box of stuff I got with this plane. Still no help - it's about 2 pages of very vague Chinese translation!

RE: ESM twin otter

here's a couple of pics. It looks like they want me to mount the battery under the cables for the rudder. This would put it more rearward toward the cg. I believe I'm missing a few pieces from this...
