Kate - when you say "your truck" what sort is it, cos trucks have a different meaning over here in Uk - just nosey!!!And yes, we watch Superbol here as well, son number one had a bet on Patriots, yippeeee, lurve the cheerleaders!!!!
Fahim - I use a 9 x 5 folding prop on my SS, but I run B/less and 3S, and I wouldn't use any other prop. Its saved me a sack full of broken props and paid for itself twice over. Cost of normal APC prop=£2, cost of folding prop=£4. No contest.
Calvino - how do you find your Cog, do you use the manual setting or find it the way most of us do. Put the battery on, put 2 finger under the wings, find where the plane ballances on your fingers and maybe mark the point with a soft pencil. Its better if the plane is slightly nose heavy, it makes it fly better usually. The mark should be about a third of the way back from the leading edge of wing. If it isn't try moving wing back a bit at a time until it does. This is not set in stone, all planes and styles of flying are different but this is a good start. And I know that someone will disagree!!![][&o]
Guys: A question: When you go flying for an hour or two what do you take in tools, spares, number of planes etc. - I take a plastic storage box containing small tools/epoxy and a metal case with lipos, connectors, tape etc. Plus at least 3 planes!!![8D][8D] Just nosey again.....
