I fly JR X9303 2.4, and I have the new Spektrum AR9100 Power Safe RX for this one. It has the built in dual redundant 16 guage battery leads coming out each side of the RX, failsafe soft switch, built in power bus, etc. I'm also running dual 2300 mah A123 batteries from Sincity jets.

Well I guess I can take pics along the way then. though my building will be slow as am still doing reasearch on the best setup, and taking the time to "TRY" and do it the right way. I am sticking with the stock hardware, and building mostly per instructions, The only thing I have changed so far is cutting out the bottom of the hatch so I can easily monitor voltage indicators on the power system, and lost a bit of weight. Simple job, hole saw in the corners and cut between. I have decided on futaba 7c 2.4ghz RX/TX and smart-fly powersystem eq6, and have an old TME smoke system to put in for that extra effect. Am still undecided on engine & servos though, but I like the thought of a hitec servo I can program. I tell ya, the price tags keep adding up. But I figure since im not richest guy in the world if I spread out my purchases It won't look as bad .

(MIT)i run the same sort of set up but i think DA3 is just starting up .was trying to help with his econo setup if thier is sutch a thing.what are you using to charge your 123s.igot the hyperon and use it to charge both packs at the same time pretty cool stuff.

RAMMJETT

AD3 i eat my words looks like your going a little more hard core than i thought.your new post came up as i was sending mine.keep up the good work

RAMMJETT

(DA3)it looks like your going to end up going all the way with this thing.so go digital you wont regreat it .i have a few gassers and started and had sucess with less but digitals are worth waiting for.i use hitec and have never had a problem .never found i needed mutch more than a 5625or5645 on a aleron when ganged.but you cant put to mutch on the tail .i have over 600 oz on the rudder of my gp 1/3 cap

I bought the FMA CellPro 4S to charge my A123's. I haven't charged them yet because the charger comes without an AC adapter, and I will have to buy one or hook them up to my car out in the garage. I am still considering returning this charger since I just got it yesterday and am not particularly impressed. I can charge only one pack at a time and the charger itself doesn't even come in a case but rather the internals are covered in a thick tye of clear shrink wrap[>:]. I'm off to research your Hyperon now ...

RAMMJETT

(DA3) just recieved mine .man what can i say wow.this thing is far to nice to put less than the best.looks like i will be spreading mine out over time .know what you mean about thoese prices adding up.they could give thies planes away for free and it would still be expensive.but what the heck you cant take it with you.

Glad you got it Bro! Aren't they beautiful? It's going to be hard not to build this plane. I was at one of the flying fields today and there were a couple of large scale birds there. 35% Extra 300, and a 33% 260. Made me wish I had my Yak there. I'm hiding my plane at my pals house. I forgot to bring my camera yesterday to take pics. That means you have to take some right now RJ!!!! Bring em on Bro!

dude i have never posted a picture .new to that stuff still cant figure out how to get the digital cam in the cd rom .lol when i get building i will post something.by then i might figure out this camera thing.i have a 35% carden extra 330s& 1/3 gp cap .not mutch good with all this snow up here.think i will sleep in the box tonight.love this plane

DA3

Glad to hear you got it in, Can you believe how light the airframe is. Keep us posted on your build Im intrested to see how everyone sets theres up.

RAMMJETT

(DA3)i will definatly go digital with the size of thies controll surfaces.it was the holding power of the digital servo that in part made planes like this possible to fly with out as mutch chance of flutter.that is why most of the old analog stuff had very small alerons & high mechanical advantage setups.just a thought

Dude, .. you got a long way to go on the pic posting , if you think you got to get the digital cam in the cd rom!!!
Here's how ... quick and easy. If you have a digital cam, just take some pics. Then take you camera and plug your USB cable into the camera, then plug the other end of the USB cable into your computer (You "should" have USB ports on the front and back of your computer, but certainly on the back). When this is done, your computer will automatically open your default program for viewing the pics you took with your camera. If you can get this far .. you have it whipped for the most part.

DA3

There is no questiion i will be going digital, was looking at the HS-5995TG's at servo city, very fast and powerful, but just ordered the RX/TX and EQ6, so servo's will have to wait a bit.

RAMMJETT

(da3)one thing about digital servos they pull a lot of amps .5955 around 3.5 amps when stalled each so try not to use more servo than you need

RAMMJETT

sorry guys just working on a pic

RAMMJETT

dude i give if this dont work

Hey, good job man. Nice bird. Now don't stop there. I'm going to try to get to my friends house tomorrow to get some more pics and stare at my plane. I may just have to put this one on the bench. BTW, I see the 94'' Edge is on the Tower site again. If the Extra pops up at 400 clams, it's mine.

DA3&DOPP just went through the kit looks good . couple of things i will change.first those stars have to go looks like my 1st grade teacher went nuts on the thing.well at least it looks like i will pass.second dont know about black leading edges .third must build up fuse sides where canopy screws on. fourth dont know about 1/ 1/4-20 nylon screw per wing .also dont know why they say to cut the inboard hinge on the elevator so short .only 1/8 inch to long on mine.i will take sone pictures when i have something done.yeah moma let me live
