Im flying at PEMAC today.

Dave You could have flown as a guest today, PEMAC changes over tomorrow!

Looking very, very nice Dazza.

Nice work Claudio. Flies very nicely. Footage looks great with the sun on the horizon. So where is this great flying spot?

I dont have a lot of experience with these airframes. There doesn't appear to be much difference visually between the Super Cub and the Piper, I know you hate the Piper's flight characteristics, so w...

Try droping down to a 14 x 6 and re test

Ive got a 13 x 6.5 you can try mate. Its a spare for my Deuces Wild and surprise surprise, I'm running a Power 32 on 4S in that.

No worries, I will throw it in my flight bag. What size is your shaft/ shaft to prop adapter.

Well who would have guessed that is was gunna friggin rain. IF the clouds piss off I will be heading out to PEMAC for a fly.

Thanks for the link Claudio......... hmmmmmmm ...... I think I have found something that I ......... never mind!

I will be flying at PEMAC tomorrow mate. I was going to fly today but the conditions this morning put me off. Planning on flying from 8.30 till 12. I have got that 13 x 6.5 with me. Chocks away old c...

Smart move installing the servoless retracts mate. If I had the cash I would have put in Eflite's myself, and in hindsight it would have made the build SOOOOO much easier, but anyway, I am almost fini...

Well lets hope the weather guru's have got it right.. FOR ONCE.... because that outook is the best rainfall forecast I've seen in 2 years.

George is spot on there Steve. The sliding arm on one side of the front retract get connected to a normal STEEL clevis. dont use plastic they will fail from the sliding and rubbing. Here is a pics of...

Looks like a nice plane Jason, If you can get some longevity out of it I recon you are on to a good thing.

Come on Jason, I thought you were a glass half full man? or to put it another way... Don't take any shit from the lady luck bitch!

Has anyone per chance dropped by the field to see what state it is in for the weekend? I want to maiden my Seagull Super Tucano and will have to go out to PEMAC if the strip isn't in great shape.

Thanks guys, I figured as much! George I will give you a ring when and where, will probably be Sunday at PEMAC as I have a few things to fine tune tomorrow to be happy (you know what a pedantic prick...

Here is the Super Tucano Pics guys. The most troublsome build I have done, purely because I have converted it to electric and the battery tray is smack bange in the center of everthing, it would have...

Put me down for one thanks Dennis Once again, thanks for the effort and the thoughtful gestuer.

Steve I am pulling 58 amps at 1240 watts spinning the 15 x 10. Max current for the Hacker is 50 amps continous with burst at 70, so I am pretty happy that most of the time I will be well under 50 am...

Just checked the forecast...looks OK... will have to wait till the morning to make a desicion. If its good I will be going to PEMAC about 8.30 ... to maiden my Super Tucano. George you have been war...

I will have a look at it if you are flying out west today.

Last piece of work was adding weight to the nose to get it trimmed... 230 grams of weight..... I dont know if any of you guys have thought of this before but because I needed to add so much weight I ...

You dead right there Kieran, After todays trials I will see what modifications may be afoot.

Yes but the prop to ground clearance only allows a maximum prop of 16" diameter. So a big low kv motor would be counter productive.

Yeh was thinking about putting my Hacker A60-22 out of my big Sukhoi in it. It is 217kv and currently spinning a 20 x 16 prop running on 10S. It could spin a 16 x 14 without even trying. That would w...

Well after we sorted Waynes Eratix. I decieded to take to Super Tucano out for a few taxi trails as I was still a little concerned that it might be a little underpowered (for my liking). To my surpri...

Spot on there Steve, I was only up for 3 minutes but did 5 take off runs prior to that. The Hacker certainly surprised me but the airframe surprised me the most.

Good thinking 99.

Shame about the landing gear George. As I had to add 250 grams of weight to the cowl of my Tucano to balance the plane, you might want to re think your motor choise. I will stick with what I have fo...

My Hacker A50-14 is 370 grams and my Lipo is a Turnigy 6S 5000 25C @ 800 grams. No, I am only half way down (see photo) My battery is mounted in a housing mounted at 45 degrees and sits against the b...

Hi Kent As Steve said, you are more than welcome, you will find our club full of very easy going people that are more than happy to help out with any assistance you need. What mode do you fly? We h...

That looks great George, I would cut a hole in the foam you have against the forward bulkhead to allow some airflow through the aircraft to cool your ESC and battery otherwise things may tend to get a...

Ditto on the presentation Paul, That looks an absolute treat! Look forward to seeing that beautie tear up the sky.

Nice work Steve. Thanks a lot for the effort.

Good move to change his name to Chuck, Not only does Charles sound a little gay, but Chuck is what he will probably be doing sitting in one of your airframes! Blah ha ha ha ha ha!!!

Yeh! That would be Fuc%K&ng right. First Saturday for over a month the strip might be OK for my big planes and I have to bloody work................ SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!!! I am happy to take ove...

What wrong with the Eratix Champ?

Sorry I can't drop by and help you guys but my schedule this week is off the ricker. Thanks for the effort.

If the ramp is damp enough that throttle application is causing damage then it is obviously TOO WET and should not be used!

Hobbies in The Hills has the Spectrum DX6i on special at the moment for $199.00 and that includes 2 x AR6110 recievers and they normally retail for $80 each. If you are in the market for a good Tx th...

Hey Steve Your new avatar is giving me a friggin headache...... Oh... no... hang on a second... its not the Avatar.... its the beer.........blah hah hah hah hah hah !!!

Flying solo is at the discression of the certified instructors at our club. No one can fly solo until recieving verbal approval from said instructors, you do not have to have you bronze wings, but yo...

Her are a few pics of my lastest purchase. I just finished it tonight its a Durafly Stuka. It flies on 3S 2200 with an 1100mm wingspan. Its my first Durafly and I am very impressed all the harware i...

Pete You must have missed me by about 3 minutes. I left at about 3.40 after having 2 flights of my new Stuka. I agree, the field does look pretty good. The whole thing needs a good haircut though....

I will be flying this weekend and should be opening up the field tomorrow morning at 8 .00am See you there Gazz

Nice purchase Aaron.... that looks like a sweet ride, I am looking forward to seeing how well a big foamy Bipe performs !!! Your forgiven too Pete.... its a nice feeling though ................ isnt ...

My damaged Seb Art Sukhoi 50E is for sale (Airframe only) The right wing let go because the carbon rod failed (One too many snap rolls) Both wings are intact as is the fusalage from the canopy back,...

I'll swap you mate. 1 slightly used Seb Art Sukhoi 50 for 2 Striker Airframes?
