Thanks Dave I will ring you and let you know what is happening, weather permitting. Gazz

If the wet stuff leaves us alone I will open up Area 51 at 8.30 but will only be there for an hour. Someone else will have to lock up for me. I have other commitments tomorrow. Gazz

You are dead right there mate. If the Skyfun does not generate enough speed off the ramp it could end in tears. I run a 5x5 on my skyfun, the little sucker gose like stink but it is very slow off th...

Hey Steve Can you chase up another couple of conduits that are twice as long so I can launch my Skyfun, just kidding mate. It is a wizzard bit of kit, well done. If Kieran learns to stand on the en...

Thanks Dave Done deal..... on my way!

I have to work tomorrow morning for a few hours. So I might not be able to open up until after 9. Just depends on how long it takes. I would say that Area 51 will probably be the go for tomorrow, con...

Thats a shame Paul, You would really love the massive approaches, lets hope the weather is kind. Gazz

I recon you are on the money there Steve, Looks like a trip to area 51.

You could drive to Kellets in Liverpool and pick it up for $2.80. Save yourself $1.20 but cost you $15.00 in petrol !!!!

Hey Darren Are you after a few spares, If you can afford it this looks pretty sweet. http://www.rctrader.com.au/component/adsmanager/?page=show_ad&adid=7934

Sounds like you have a crook set of servos, though it is difficult to say without looking at the set up. If you plug a different servo into the same reciever port and it works fine, I would recon the ...

Yes I did mate, took the beastie up twice.

I will be opening up the field from 8.30 tomorrow morning but will ony be there till 10.30 Gazz

Thanks Chris I will be at the field from 8 am tomorrow. Just a reminder to all members that flying any aircraft (even quite ones) is not allowed until 8.30 on Saturdays and 9.00 on Sundays. Just a ...

You unemployed guys make me sick/ jealous, safe flying.

The committee will be discussing this ongoing problem tomorrow evening, but at the end of the day, it is the responsibility of EVERY pilot to adhere to the very simple safe flying protocols EVERY time...

Disconcerting is an understatment Jason, At the time I thought "Oh No, Goodbuy DW." No Dave... I have not repaired it yet. I am going to modify the firewall mounts on both motors and that is going t...

Thats right Dave. We all need to be considerate of what other people are doing with regard to the type of aircraft they are flying, the perameters in which that aircraft flys and most importantly doe...

Good job Jason Glad you got it sorted, Im glad I didnt have to pay you for the labour to fix it! I had a close call with my Dueces Wild at Penrith yesterday. The Right hand motor mounting plate ...

I have just walked in the door from checking out McCoy field, don't know if anybody flew there today, nobody asked me to open up. Both strips are dry the taxi way and pits are bone dry but both strips...

I am not flying today guys but I can open up if anyone needs it.

So with the bloody weather being crap as usual what are our flight plans if any for the weekend, I can open up in the morning if needed but will only be there for an hour or two. I am planning on fly...

Hi Dazza Did you know that Stumax has just released a fan that with fit in you Habu http://www.rc-warbirds.com/product_info.php/products_id/1234 Sweet ride mate Gazz

Hi Jason Why do you keep quoting me and then not responding. See above Post #5 as well as a post on "Flying this Week" Post # 456. What the?????

He is a good mate of my wifes boss.... Dr Kalman Piper, small world eh!

I have a student whos radio keeps reversing its flight timer from down time to up time, his DX6i has also reversed the rudder on 3 occassions each time it has done it it has been on the same model.

Looking forward to seeing back down at the field BB, glad the surgery was a success You haven't really miised all that much though it is STILL raining and our field is STILL a quogmire. My wife is c...

Hi Chris. Sorry to here about the demise of the mighty Trojan. I was planning on giving my Hotliner its maiden amoung a few other fun flights, but I'm not landing my new $1000 aircraft in a muddy mo...

Sorry Chris I arrived home from work to late to join you. Any chance of a field report. I am planning on flying from about 3.30 tomorrow afternoon.

Forecast for tomorrow and Wednesday looks pretty good for the first time in weeks. They predict almost no wind as well. So I recon I will drop by the field on Wednesday afternoon on the way home fro...

Dont get me started..... stupid fu%@#n safety cars rules ruin almost every race.

There are no "Holdens" or "Fords" they are V8 supercars. They might have a babge stuck on them, they are a lot of things but Holdens and Fords they aint, not buy a long long way and any one who think...

Dave is down at the other field is anybody would like to join him. Conditions are great

They do race on Sunday Dave..... go straight to the top of the class. I will not be drinking until the telecast starts at 12 before that I will be shopping with my lovely wife. You are welcome to dr...

That will be Ingo. I believe he said he was flying this weekend. If he is not available I can drop by and open up for you guys. I will not be flying this weekend ...... BATHURST IS ON. Give me a rin...

Well done Jason, glad it was you and not me I would have lost the plot and sent the thing into orbit. Patience with things like that is not one of my forte's. I would have thrown it in the bin and bou...

What has happened to the kids of this day and age. A bloke goes out of his way to help out the needy (Like you Steve) And a little cheek is what they get in return. Dont leave your Zimmer frame un...

Its difficult to say what the cause was.... I was just going through the motions to try and dispose of the things that didn't cause it. It's very strange for a dual engine aircraft to roll over so vio...

Hi Simon Sorry to here that mate.... its a big dissapointment when a miden goes south. I'm curious does it have counter rotating props? I'm sure you checked the aileron centering before take off. ...

Hey Claudio How did you go with your EDF search, I found this on HK and it looks worthy of a little interest, especially when it can develop over 1 kg of thrust. The general rull of thumb is the more...

Hi Paul How is the L 39 build going, from the look of things on the club forum you have a very busy time ahead of you with all of these airliners etc. Just thought I would make you aware of somethin...

No Claudio Dave didn't find out as we were driving out the gate, he found out just as I was pulling into my street, at which point he ran me and asked if I could return to the field and give him a ha...

Im heading up to the other site now, still a little overcast but the forecast and radar looks promissing, Fingers crossed eh!

Cant recommend any of the HK ones mate because I haven't used em. But almost all the guys with big helis use these and I use em on my big aircraft for stand alone Receiver power. They are made buy Al...

Dont think I will be flying today, Its cold and miserable and its currently blowing over 30kph at Richmond (which is only 15 kms from here), I just checked Willy and it looks like we have a number of ...

FLYING TOMORROW WILL NOT BE AT OUR REGULAR FIELD. ALL WILL BE EXPLAINED ON THE 'MEMBERS ONLY' FORUM. PLEASE CHECK IT SHORTLY FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON WHERE TO GO! GAZZ

With a nice grass landing strip you don't need wheels OR landing skids.

And we don't love power do we Kev...... mwuh ah ah arrrrr.

I still use the standard 1800 battery to fly mine when all my 2200's are dead. I get a comfortable 5 minute flight from it with prettey aggresive throttle use. With that said I get over 6 minutes wit...

Go Dave. I just picked up my indoor beastie. I was going to buy the UMX 300 but it is to flimsy for anything but dead still air so I bought the UMX SBAC 342... Yipee! From what Ive read its the ducks...
