RE: Graupner Micro Nemesis issues...

Lucky! Where did you find them?? I've been searching high and low and havent found a single one.

Todays electronics can be so much lighter, the Nemesis could really perform.

RE: I need a new Ultra Micro airframe can anyone help me please?

Hows this? Any time I ever want plans, I just go to Google or whatever search engine, and type in the plane and 3 view, i.e. Focke Wulf 190 3 view (or plans, or drawings). There's a number of sites...

RE: Looking for a ultra small gearbox - PLEASE HELP

You may have a hard time finding something with that high of ratio, especially with a 4mm motor. This is about as high as I've seen, but its for 6mm motors here...

RE: Micro videos

Hmmm...well I can fly the heck out of the mSR, it was a great trainer. ParkZone sure has released a lot of cool planes, but this heli might have to take the top spot in the "empty my wallet" line...

RE: Micro videos

Thanks for the heads up on embedding the videos, that was driving me nuts.

How do you like the mCPX, is it comparable to the mSR other than it being 3D? Been waiting a long time for them to do...

RE: Micro videos

Cool thread, Fern, nice vids too :)

Took them a year to take up my recommendation to make a micro Stryker, but better late than never! :D

The videos I've seen of the F-27Q dont look half...

RE: Losi 1/24 micro SCT - brushless, 2.4ghz, lipo power

Thanks Gasmachine85, they're a blast! I reprogrammed my ESC and can almost get the thing to do a wheelie now, but a small one, and just barely. Might get some metal gears and crank the slipper down...

Losi 1/24 micro SCT - brushless, 2.4ghz, lipo power

Picked up one of these little Losi 1/24th scale SCTs the other day. Pretty impressed overall, but upgrades are too tempting.

I swapped out the stock brushed motor and AM RX/TX system for a Losi...

RE: micro Stryker F-27C - 69.7mph!

Yeah it can take quite a beating...for as soft as balsa is, when its thick enough, it can withstand some punishment. I dinged up the leading edge pretty good when I hit the tree, but the spackle...

RE: micro Stryker F-27C - 69.7mph!

NitroCharged was kind enough to do some doppler readings for me, and I'm going faster than the F-27B at 69.7mph!! :D I had no idea.

Here's the 3 videos I have. First is the maiden in...

RE: micro scratch builders

She flys! And quickly too. It took a couple launches to realize it launches just like its big brother...you need lots of throttle and be quick on the elevator! Once in the air I realized I hadnt...

RE: what is the maximum wingspan for a ultra micro?

Hey, I resemble that remark :D

RE: Parkzone bits -> Micro sail plane?

I made the one below using the brick from an mCX heli, it was just a glider, but the brick worked just fine. There's been a couple others done at RCG, so the idea will work if you give it a go.

RE: Blade mcx gear to good use?
