RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Not familiar with the Brillelli but the DLE 30 swinging a 19X8 Xoar is more then enough power for this bird and it balances out to specs with the recommended gear placement. The DLE weighs ~38oz and...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Thanks for the info. Family left this morning, so been tinkering on the workbench shoehorning a DLE 20 into my 60-90 Extra 260. So far so good...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Personally, I'd resort to cleaning a spark plug only if I didn't have a replacement plug and as a last resort. I swapped the factory plug on mine with an NGK CM6. Starts are easy and with the needle...

RE: Aeroworks Summer Sale!!!

I too was debating between models.. Was actually looking at the 50cc Edge 540 and Extra 300 along with the 260. Was also looking at Pilot RC's 50cc SBach. The Summer Sale made up my mind.. =)~

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Nice SBach Brian, is it GoldWing's or Redwing RC's 30cc ARF? I too have another project heading my way and will hopefully have it up on the bench late next week. I ordered a 50CC Extra 260 from...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

These arms have no side bolts to pinch to the spline of the servo. I speculate this arm was a defect from the factory... I'm just glad I discovered it during the build and not in flight...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Maiden for the Edge has been put on hold. =( One of the Hangar9 1-1/4" golden arms stripped out on the servo. I'll order a set of AirWild 1-1/4" arms to put on her and replace ALL of the Hanger 9...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Well... was hoping to report an excellent day of flying today. All in all it was a good day if it wasn't for me finding a hole in the end of the runway with the left wheel of my 74" Extreme Flight...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Figured out the problem with the opti-kill. Nothing wrong with the switch. The negative pin in the connector coming out of the ignition module was loose. Reinserted the pin and re staked it and all...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Meh, was an idea I was kicking around on the prop. I'll most definitely balance whatever prop I go with as I do all my props. =) Tidying up around the workbench and have planes for tomorrow on...

Kewl.. Nice of them to provide a spare. Working on the tedious tasks of installing ignition, opti kill switch and battery. Routing all the wires as tidy as possible for a clean trouble free install....

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Glad you're getting it pieced back together, Damon. Now it'll have distinctive qualities to it. =) Thankfully it wasn't a total loss, huh.... For my throttle servo mount, a slight kink in the rod...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Don't really see a clear pic of your throttle servo mount, but the one that does show it, it appears yours is taller than the one I got in my kit. Mine has oval holes on the ends where yours and the...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

As you can probably figure out by looking at the pics above, I temporarily mounted the engine and worked out a straight forward throttle linkage (note servo position) I really think Aeroworks is not...

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Hey Brian,

RE: 30cc Edge 540 build

Hey Brian,

Yeah I was active in the Super Sportster thread, though never built one. My flying buddy was building one though and why I got involved in it. I agree this is an assembly rather than...
