RE: 6v receiver pack

As mehrshad said, if you have a small light trainer type plane with only three or four low torque servos that's one thing. If you have something larger, then, perhaps, a better pack from...

RE: Going for first ever flight solo later. Wind or no wind?

When I was learning to fly, I didn't fly in anything over 10 mph winds.
A lot has to do with the wind direction as well. If the wind is straight up or down the runway, that is best. If it is...

RE: German Speedcup 2013

Electric 287.6 mph
15cc 258.3 mph
10cc 258.2 mph

WOW!!!
"Easy on the sticks!"

RE: 12' Telemaster - Good trainer?

I had an Alpha 40 trainer, and initially I crashed a number of times. I repaired it myself on multiple occasions. A 12' Telemaster would be considerably more work and expense to do so.
Kinda have...

RE: Sad day for gas engines - Pe Rievers

I never really conversed with the man, but always found his posts enlightening. He will be missed.

RE: taxiing a warbird and taking off

You need to get the wheels further forward. I'm not sure what type of landing gear you have, but you can either bend the wire or, perhaps shim the mounts to get the wheels more towards the leading...

RE: Battery for new receiver

I'd go with a 6V RX pack. It will provide a little more cushion before you would see a low voltage brownout. Also, if the Futaba servos have J plugs on them, you'll need to pare or sand that tiny...

RE: Electric, glow, gasser. Just choose one

Glow. The only engines I have are .46 to 1.6 two cycle glow. I just love the smell of burnt castor!
If I flew more, then maybe gas, but I don't get to fly as much as I'd like. I work 6- 12 hr night...
