Thanks, Bax. I've noticed that Tactic isn't alone in not supplying a charger for the increasingly prevalent 4.8V transmitter batteries. Maybe everyone is so locked into using their LiPo chargers,...

Transmitter Charger

Why doesn't Tactic supply a wall-wart charger for the TTX650 transmitter? Most people will put a spare NiCd or NiMh pack in there but, without cannibalizing one of their existing chargers by cutting...

I ordered one of their power distribution panels instead of getting it from RedwingRC. When it came from China after 3 weeks, my servos went wild until I moved my receiver away from the panel. I...

If it were me, I'd go for a .40 size Cub. That size would fly it very realistically.

Sorry hear that the Phoenix was a mess! Send it back if you can. It sounds like you were sent a plane that someone else returned! Where did you get it from?

I'm flying the Flyzone Calypso now and it's GREAT! Plenty of power. Very well finished. Fairly reasonably priced for a foam glider. I fly it with the Tactic radio and their little receiver that...

The Tactic receivers are a bargain so it will be no big deal to substitute them for about $20 each.

Thanks for the reply. On some of the other Flyzone plane instructions, I discovered a BOLD warning concerning the possibility of the throttle going to full power on signal loss. Since the Calypso...

Flyzone Calypso ESC

I'm posting this here because I believe that the ESC is a Tactic BL18. I've written two different techs at Tower Hobbies, One at Horizon, and one at Flyzone asking for programming directions. NONE...

RE: Engine causing servo glitches

He said his servos were new. The 'KEY" here is that he has a Fuji engine. For some moronic reason, Fuji has seen fit to NOT supply thier engines with shielded spark plug wire or metal cap. I have...

RE: Fuji bt-64 eis

Also, if you read the label on the Camp fuels, they say that the product is a naptha derivative and not gasoline. Surprised me.

RE: Fuji 64 electrical interference

Fuji 64 electrical interference

I've been reading a lot of the posts on this forum as well as others concerning EMI with the Fuji engines. Your response has been to 'send in the engine for us to check'. One poster said that he...

RE: Questions on Fuji 50 SB

You mention that you could use 'regular' motor oil at 40:1 in the Fuji engine. Do you mean 'regular two stroke' oil or regular multigrade engine oil?

RE: best first time plane for 50cc?

It sounds like you want a stunt plane, BUT if you want realism and easy flying, a 1/3 scale Balsa USA Sopwith Pup will be the best plane you ever flew! I've had mine for 15 years powered by a Quadra...

RE: Spring starter

Spring starter

Hi,

RE: quadra 50 prop

I've been flying a 27 pound Balsa USA 1/3 Pup for 15 years with a Quadra 50 swinging a Zinger 24-6. It has about 18 pounds of static pull, which is enough for very realistic flight. The big prop...
