RE: NEW DLE30!

Here's a "before" shot of the plane, a few weeks ago at the same field.

As a relative newbie to the hobby, I've not seen much carnage on this scale. It hurt to watch that go into the fence.

RE: RC Lander F-16D

Mine is still sitting in its box.  Haven't had time to mess with it at all, sadly.

RE: ***** New E Flite F16 400 DF (Thunderbird Scheme) *****

Yes, and I love it. Bolts right up without issue and seems to do just fine. Plenty of power (at least compared to the stock powerplant, that is).

RE: 50cc Sukhette Build Thread, now in progress!!

It's not "cheating" so much as it's creative recycling. :D

RE: 50cc Sukhette Build Thread, now in progress!!

It's about time I throw my hat into the WH Sukhoi ring. I've had this in my backroom for far too long - so it's time to start reading this thread in detail and get my butt in gear to get this plane...

RE: ***** New E Flite F16 400 DF (Thunderbird Scheme) *****

I'd get the stock motor the heck outta there. I'd love just to get the airframe for this jet. It flies so nice when it's powered by something other than the stock gear.

Dave E - can we please...

RE: RC Lander F-16D

Nope. Holidays got in the way - plus I've got a couple of other projects that I need to finish before getting to this. I want to workover the retracts and gear doors a bit to eliminate some...

RE: ***** New E Flite F16 400 DF (Thunderbird Scheme) *****

All of my battery packs fit in nice and snug - even with the velcro. I had to use a bit of hot glue to get the velcro to lock in as it gets a bit warm in there - but even when my canopy has popped...

RE: ***** New E Flite F16 400 DF (Thunderbird Scheme) *****

No, I don't think you can order up the decals.

I'm still hoping that Horizon will start offering just the airframe and let us stuff our own gear in it - they'll have a winner for certain.

Dave,

Any hints to when we could expect these to hit the shelves of our local hobby stores??

RE: RC Lander F-16D

I'm hoping mine arrives in as good of condition as it left EJF, but I'm not too worried about it. Right now it's a race between my Hyperion Extra 300 and the F-16. Both are expected in on the 22nd...

Nope, wasn't right at all about 'em shipping on the 10th. However, I did get my shipping notification from FedEx that a box from EJF is on its way to me now. Stay tuned, unboxing photos should be...

Well today's the day that EJF is supposed to ship out this bird. I'm eagerly awaiting its arrival. We're supposed to start getting snow, so it looks like it may be a bit before this flies - but the...

I have their new F-16 on order (airframe, retracts, and gear doors). It's supposed to ship from EJF tomorrow. I've got a thread going for detailing what I come across while I build, so look for...

RE: Twist 3D 60 ARF

I picked my 60 Twist up off of craigslist with a Saito .91 this past spring. After a good bit of flying this season, I LOVE this plane. It's a riot to throw around. If I'm making lazy NASCAR laps...

RE: New EFlite BAE Hawk EDF

I saw this while at iHobby in October. Looks to be a pretty sharp plane, loads of cheater holes in the bottom of the fuse - but all-in-all it's a looker. Seems to be pretty stout, but I'm wary...

RE: RC Lander F-16D

The airframe and retracts were $149.99 and the gear doors an additional $50. So $200 with free shipping. They have other packages available, but I wanted to put my own stuff in the airplane.

RC Lander F-16D

In anticipation of my RC Lander F-16D's arrival, I figured I'd start a thread to detail unboxing, how the build goes, or anything that may pop up. I ordered (from www.electricjetfactory.com) the...

RE: E-Flite F16 EDF, how do I make it faster.

Read this thread:
RC Universe E-Flite F-16 Thread

We've been hard at work modding our Falcons for better performance and to overcome the stock motor handicap.

RE: ***** New E Flite F16 400 DF (Thunderbird Scheme) *****

While the stock power plant may be a dud, I love this airframe. It flies very smoothly, keeps me on my toes, and slows down nice for a landing.

Dave E: what are the chances of you guys just...
