Hey bubba!
There was a HUGE selection of planes there... My photo's don't show all of the planes! I was in charge of the digicam and dad shot 2 rolls with a 35mm So maybe he shot some more!
The lawnmower is flyingthingz I beleive but the Witch and Snoopy are custom built.. Both appear to be a couple yrs old. But I could definatly be wrong!
Yes I love the bigger planes.. 40 sized are so touchy and snappy it seems... Then my 1.20 is just SO stable! I'm way more comfortable throwing it around than even a 40 sized beater because it's so stable! Next up on the list to learn are Blenders!
I thought about going with a G26 on this bird.. But since my G2300 spins a Mejzlik 18X6 at over 9k and I can fly for 22-24 minutes on 14 oz. I didnt want to spen $400 on a new gasser when I'm shelling out 600$ for a DA 50-R this winter!
Plus with the plane being under 9 lbs. its LITE!
But this winter a Wildhare Edge 540 (28%) and a DA 50-R will be my project!
I hope we get the other photo's developed today.. dadio saidhe got some good ones... We'll see!
ICE,
You need to watch out for those "bunny" planes (Wildhare) You know how bunnies are. Once you get one they are to cute so you get two and then they multiply. I have the Utlimate with a ZDZ50NG which I just finished but have not flown it yet, The 28% Edge is on order along with the Extra Special. I have flown both the Edge and Extra previously and it was only a matter of time. I'm a huge Ultimate fan so having one from WH just goes without saying.
The Edge and Extra are also getting ZDZ50NG's. ZDZ is the same price, same weight, same everything as the DA-50's and they are only 80 miles from me so if I order from them, I usually have it the next day. Not bad for 8 bucks in shipping.
Your correct the G26 and the ST2300 will turn the same prop without an issue and you are getting reat fuel burn with the ST so I agree, why change it. It was just a thought about getting used to gas, that's all, no big deal
Can't wait to see the rest of the pics.
