RE: IMAC

You may want to take a look at the online judging program at www.mini-iac.com under the training tab to look at the judging criteria.

Hey Mark, my 42% 260 balances just at IN FRONT of the wing tube at the wing root do you think it will fly the IMAC pattern balanced this way? This point is about 1/8" back from the recommended...

AW 42% Extra 260 QB - Tight Wing Tube

Mark/Rocco: the carbon wing tube is an extremely tight fit in the fuse. I'm afraid that if I get the tube in I won't be able to remove it! Should I sand the tube itself or the inside of the fuse...

RE: New Wild Hare Sukhoi ready to fly

Of course another easy fix is to put a 1/4" air dam in front of the cowl cutout! The air dam creates an area of low pressue and pulls out the hot air!

RE: Wild Hare Extra 260 Pictures

I saw one of these setups just as you describe at an IMAC contest a couple of years ago. In my opinion, it was a perfect combo.

RE: GP Patty Wagstaff - Building & Flying

It's a hard thing to do but the right thing is to push full down elevator and build up some airspeed and get the plane flying again. Then you could worry about landing - somewhere?

RE: GP Patty Wagstaff - Building & Flying

Hey Steve, it has been a long time! You will really like the plane as it flys well and will probably fit in your truck very nicely. Are you going to put a DA or DL 50 in it?

RE: need CG advice on 100cc Yak

I set my Yak up in typical IMAC fashion. Pull to a 45 degree upline, roll inverted then let go of the sticks. If the nose just falls slightly you are perfect. If the nose really drops, you are...

Whick Power Expander to Use with new JR 12X

Robert, the new JR 12X comes with a R1221 12-ch 2.4 GHz receiver. Which one of your PE/regulators should be used with the R1221?

Thank you for responding.
