RE: Hybrid-Air Anyone flying one of these?

Hi Stryker-Man:

Sounds like your initial experience with the Coota was largely positive: that's great! I'd make a few small modifications before you continue though:

1. reinforce the...

RE: Parkzone Supermarine Spitfire Mk11B

Hi Sinai -

One solution for your conundrum might be to go with a cheaper 2.4Ghz system. All my planes are flying Flysky now - rebranded as Hobbyking's house brand receiver - with a Eurgle 9x...

RE: Parkzone Supermarine Spitfire Mk11B

Thanks for that, Wingco. I've already reinforced the wings and have a 2.4Ghz Rx on hand for the spit, compatible with my main radio, but would need ESC and motor if I decided to go brushless. ...

RE: Parkzone Supermarine Spitfire Mk11B

Wingco, I've googled for the eflm 2006 inrunner motor you used for your brushless conversion but can't seem to find it. Is it discontinued or something? What are the specs? If I do ultimately...

RE: Parkzone Supermarine Spitfire Mk11B

Hi Sinai

For my 2 cents I think you should keep it brushed. I agree with you that it flies beautifully as-is, and speed is the only reason I can think of for going brushless. Looks and...

RE: Parkzone Supermarine Spitfire Mk11B

I agree with Sinai: the difference between the stock NiMh pack and a Lipo is quite something with this plane.

When I got the Spit I also bought the hardware necessary to convert to brushless,...

RE: Foam Seawind EP from Great Planes...

Don't sell! Forget the flying field - try off water. The plane will come up off the water and fly like it's on rails. Don't give up on it for a broken prop: on my maiden at the field...

RE: Parkzone Supermarine Spitfire Mk11B

Hi Sinai

I had very similar damage after what I'll call a bad landing. Others called it a crash but they're not here, so I'll stick to my story. After my repair you'd never know anything had...

RE: New mods for newbright sled

Looks great Hurricane. Did you ever get around to posting a video? What did you do to solve the track-slippage issue?

All the best.

Hi Jason: your setup looks excellent. What's the story on that motor mount? Is it custom or did you find it somewhere? Let us know how it performs.

RE: Interested in nitro snowmobile....where should I start?

My theory on the problem with RC sleds and why manufacturers don't seem interested is that vehicles that depend on the rider to do more than steer just aren't well-suited to RC. I know from...

RE: Parkzone Supermarine Spitfire Mk11B

I've read a bunch about electric power combinations and compatibility but to be honest I'm still at sea.

My PZ spitfire is still stock can I run 3S 1500mah 25C lipos in it? The manual...

Hey Dr. MadwebTV I'm interested in your "useful mods" but I'm not sure I understand what you did. Do you have any pictures of the change you made to the aileron control rod interface with the horn?...

Hi Eric

Don't know what to tell you about fixing your electronics. For the price of a new wing and board, though, you could pretty much buy yourself a whole new plane and keep the old one for...

RE: Flyzone Sky Fly

Hi RTice - I'm glad to hear you have not had the same experience with the nose gear I've had. I think it's too weak.

Yes, I posted the FMS model. I don't warrant its accuracy I'm a rank...

Hi NRD I think you should be able to find enough space somewhere in Golden Gate Park. I fly on two adjacent soccer fields behind a school and there's lots of space.
