You know the K-60 is so new, they just might not know any other "better" settings than the ones they have been running. Still, I've found Barry to be ultra responsive and usually answers the phone...

I got another flight on my Boomerang Nano this morning with the new K-60g installed. It was mostly re-trimming (probably from a slightly different turbine position) and different throttle...

Acceleration delay is the throttle response, so the delay throttling up is defaulted to 7 and deceleration is at 3 and with my altitude I've had to up the value to 25 and 9. I imagine Florida is not...

RE: Boomerang Nano!!!

I think the K-60 is only available as a G model, but no problem starting at all. Fired right up from the first time. Couldn't have been simpler. Issue has been when I accelerate the motor can't...

RE: Boomerang Nano!!!

No maiden yesterday. I've been having flameout issues with my K-60 due to my altitude (4800 ft). I think I got them resolved (needed to slow down the acceleration) and I'm going to try again today.

RE: Boomerang Nano!!!

I went with Tam's electric retracts and they were a real drop in fit. No problems with the wheel wells. (other than the paint flaking off) The nose gear also fits perfect. To be honest I was...

RE: Boomerang Nano!!!

Sluggo,
What gear setup did you go with? I'm about to order one and I want to go Electric so I'm thinking Tam's or just Eflite with the wire struts.

Thanks!

RE: habu 32 rec battery

You can unplug it or get a switch, unplugging it will put stress on the connector after time. Back in the glow only days, all radios came with a switch for the NiCd battery, you can still get them. ...
