RE: Here's how to mount Imex Jumbo tires on Axial Beadlock wheels

I've since mounted proline 40 series tires on these rims and I don't have any more old pics. To me, it sounds like you may have to trim the foam a little more along the sidewalls. The foam is...

RE: Here's how to mount Imex Jumbo tires on Axial Beadlock wheels

It's been a couple years since I did this mod. I remember having to cut the tire and foam just right to lay properly inside the beadlock. Try tightening one screw completely to pinch the tire and...

RE: Save $20 on a 50$ order from Tower..

I see you only get 1 magazine issue instead of 3. I also know the free shipping is slow to international, I'm living in Japan and it sometimes takes a month if I don't upgrade to priority shipping.

RE: Save $20 on a 50$ order from Tower..

pay the 9.99, it's worth it IMO. You get better coupons and free shipping over 150.

RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

Wow, very nice setup. Nice job with the carbon fiber. How do you attach the cowling? I want to see a picture of that.

RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

I used the recommended Du-Bro long servo arms on page 5 of the manual and they work great. The ones I have are for futaba, but they make them for other brands.

RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

If price is of concern, I think the 55AX is the way to go and a pitts muffler. I have both the slimline and bisson pitts and they both work great. The slimline is larger in size, but still fits...

RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

I don't have experience with the EF but I can honestly say this GP Extra flies great. Some days I fly it as a sport plane, other days I shift the weight back and do 3D. It's very stable, to the point...

RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

I second the use of a dremel. It's the best tool for precision work. Just try not to inhale the fiberglass dust while working on the cowling. The 46AX uses a different carb than the 55AX. The needle...

RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

I made a hole for the cylinder head, but I think all that's required is a glow plug hole. The cylinder head doesn't stick out with the 55AX installed. The four strokes will stick out giving better...

My pic on post #349 shows it with the pitts. Would you like a different view? Just let me know exactly what you want and I'll snap a few off.

I'm flying this plane with the 55AX and pitts muffler. No complaints, plenty of power.

RE: will it work?

The engine mounts that come in the ofna mutilator are a direct fit for roto start and pull start engines. I have the LRP .28 in my truggy and love it.

RE: truugy selection!

I say spend the extra money and get the Jammin X2 or save a few bucks and find an X1 for $300. I would stay away from the Z01T. I've seen it break real easy.

RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

I'm all for having a little extra power but if someone puts a 91 or larger in this plane they're just adding a ton of additional weight. I'm flying with the 55AX and am very happy, although I know an...

RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

I am running the OS 55AX w/ 12x6 APC and had a few overheating problems at first which resulted in deadsticks. Once I figured out what was going on, I had to cut open the intake of the cowling quite...
