RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

I am sure you will not be dissappointed in the sounds it isn't gone just nicer to listen too. (IMO) If you really think its to quiet there are serveral fixes that are very easy to accomplish and...

RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

Just to add to what Leon and Tony are doing I flew the Contra as well in Phoenix and never used over 3200 Mah or landed below 37.9 volts. I only fly the pattern and land unlike Leon who flies to his...

RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

As far as I am concerned guys, we have a great first set of props that I think Brenner will have for sale very shortly. They are a little heavier but that has little or nothing to do with the sound...

RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

Those are yours and Steve is going to send them with his drive this week. I think all were going to do is add a half inch to the front prop and they will be readily available through Brenner. Amp...

RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

Well today was the day the new APC props arrived and they look great. I cannot believe how stiff they are even though they are much thinner then their standard props. They are also lighter then I...

RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

Brenner thats a good idea about mixing the rudder to the throttle. I am assuming you would want it work as split at full power gradually becoming one as you throttle back. I need to think on this a...

RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes

I wish this Visa had the split rudder, I think that would really be beneficial in toning down the touchy rudder. Opening the rudder would also benefit the plane in normal flight. But, this Visa is...

RE: Contra Rotating Propeller Drive for f3a 2m Pattern Planes
