It's covered, servos are in. I want to do it electric but I haven't found a set up for yet. If any one has ideas throw them at.I also have a jett 60 lx in a box collecting dust I may just have to use that instead but I really really want to do it electric. I jsut don't know much about them so I am at aloss right now.
As of now I am not going to Big Apple. I have dance recital with the kids that weekend. But I am not gonna miss the other jet rallies.

Well it's been almost 2 years since I picked up my Rifle from Angel. Here it is all ready to maiden tomorrow I hope.
I would have loved to do it electric but I don't know much about them. Plus I had this nice Jett 60 LX lying around for two years.

Hey Angel,

It Flew great!!!!! Just one click of right Aileron and that was it. I did have to add some more elevator I needed it for landing.
I had some trouble getting the Jett 60 dialed in. I think I had it a little to ritch. Have to try it out again another day.

As far as the turbines Thats all I have been flying lately. After cleaning the Glow fuel off of the Rifle ...I know why[:@]

That was some nice flight there,Don't worry to slow her down, with some ele.trim up she will nose up on final, you will get a good flair on fanil. It does sound cool in the back round, almost like a indi car in the back round....I'm glade you haveing fun with her. Congrats!!!

Hi Angel,
Nice to see you are still kicking!

I'm still messing around with Magnums and have been doing some pylon racing since we last typed.

Hi there Rifle-addicts,
The only news from me is that I'm swapping F1 due to bbad glue joining. Noticed that the well served Jett . 50 was a bit flexible mounted...
I will mount the until now NIB 60LX :-)
