The strip is in dire need of a good trim, I hope to give it the once over on Friday afternoon around 3.30, If anyone else has the time to assist please post and let me know. I will post Friday aftern...

Jas ... that looks SWEEEEEEEEET!

Good luck Jason.... Hope you kill 'em

Bloody Hell George.... slow down son!!! . . . . . . . . . . Nice plane though mate!

No problems Pete. We will be contacting the council to air our dissaproval of having access to the field closed off and the club not being notified. We pay the council fees for use of the field and it...

I am flying out west today gents, I need to turn a few laps with a couple of my big guns. Have a great day!

Howdy Men I have my mum down from the country this weekeend so I probably won't be flying, the weather looks terriffic though so I hope you all have a great weekend, just remember to stay away from t...

Good purchase Pete, being a bipe fan I love the Pitts, and from what I been told they are a pretty good PNP airframe. I'll keep an eye out for that one at the field. Gazz

How does the scoring work?

I'm sure the 12S works fine on light weight 3D airframe Jason, but I think dragging around a 9 kg plane with a lot less wing area would probably fry a few to many things. What prop are you running ma...

Nice work Jason... wouldn't of expected anything less.

Welcome to the build thread of my Hanger 9 P-51 Mustang 150 ARF. I thought it would be interesting and hopefully educational for anyone thinking about building a larger scale plane or even help out a...

Can I use a really big feather?

The field is fine Steve. I just got home from a great morning fly with a few other members. The big hole opposite the pilots box has a bit of standing water and a few small spots on the strip are da...

The field is in pretty good shape for those thinking about flying tomorrow. Only 4 members came down to the field today, and some enjoyable relaxing flying was had by all. There was almost no wind an...

You got that in one "sunshine" pardon the pun, a little rain we have had. Now it just needs to "piss off"!!! so we can have a great weekends flying.

Hey Mick, When do you expect to have the Bronco in the air, what wingspan is it?... a few build specs please?They have always been a personal favorite of mine... really looking forward to the comple...

Nice appraisal Dave... Do you work for Parkzone? I all sincerity Yudash, the Trojan would be my pick because once your skill level improves you can increase the rates and it becomes a great all round...

Just finished watching ALL your doco's Dave. Thanks! they were really terriffic

I will be flying on Sunday

My appologies if anyone thought I was having a go at them. That was not my intention. I was just trying to get a point accross. I check my batteries as soon as I land with a good quality cell checke...

Yes I agree.. that paint job looks excellent!

Don't mean to be nasty guys... but thats why they were $99

I am only relaying the information that I have learned during my flying career. I am well aware that voltage drops as load increases over time, and that is amplified as the battery loses power... chr...

I think you will find that just about every ESC, Motor and battery builder in the RC world use a base rate of 3.7 volts per cell to do their cals when you are talkin average power available under norm...

You guys are talking about 2 completely different things. Wayne is asking about flight setup,you are talking about flight timing. Flight timing is critical to 2 factors, how long you say up there an...

Actually Steve, that Power Setup is a copy of the Eflite "How to determine your power requirements specs" and it is a very good base line to use for the setup of any new aircraft. If you follow the gu...

I will hold the door open for you Dave, If you like! Always happy to help!!! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Truth be known I just want someone else to do the hard yards... ...

I'm sure that stability has always been a priority during development, but if that sucker starts a tank slapper at 200mph plus can I have whats left of your turbines?... When they land... that is! :D...

If you read the conversion data for 2 to 3 then 3 to 4 blade props you will see why. You can do the Maths on the 4 to 5S upgrade. Generally if you up the S rating on a specific airframe with the sam...

I'm flying Sunday this weekend, just letting anyone know that hoped to catch up with me!

Excellent work Steve Thanks for the effort!

This is the one I am probably putting in my HK Viper http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idproduct=21144 I would really like to put this one in http://www.extremerc.com.au/es...

I got my 13 x 8 3 blader from Hobbies in the Hills. Its a master airscrew!

Hey Steve Here is something that I thought was gone for good... they just keep coming back. http://rcflyer.com.au/shop/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=31&products_id=183 Kinda makes you all warm...

The 2.4 kgs of thrust is the one that does it for me, plus the lighter battery pack will give a lot better performance. EDF's are a lot more weight sensative than prop driven aircraft, so if you are ...

I'm happy to test you on anything mate. To answer your earlier question on the multiple aircraft requirement it says 4 flights consecutive flights. The flights may be done on 2 separate days. So you ...

I would have been there ... BUT I HAVE A JOB!!!

You aren't a student anymore Wayne, and haven't been for quite some time!

Timing errors eh Jas? The GPS looks ok to me. Looking at the huge variation in the data you have taken and the mathematical equations used that still give you a varience of over 30kph, I would be mo...

The trick to making life easy for yourself when sitting your Gold wings is to fly an aircraft that is rock solid in the air with neutral behavioral characteristics, a good sports plane will always be ...

I would put a GPS in the sucker and get a proper top speed reading over 100 meters or more... that would save a shit load of muckin around... don't you think!

Yeh, Happy birthday young fella!

I agree with Steve, if you want any EDF to have decent hand launch performance you gotta up the S rating and get some serious ponies under the bonnet.... or to coin an old performance phrase... YEEE...

Sorry for the ambiguity and yes Steven's right, its Vineyard that has apparently closed off its membership.

I was at Penrith today mate. The HMAS field is at the very end of Bandon Rd at Vinyard, cross the railway line and follow it to the end and I mean right at the end of the goat track. You physically c...

Congrats on the successful flights Wayne. Now you're in trouble mate, you have contracted the dreaded speed bug... and I'm happy to report that the only cure is... MORE SPEED !!!

Not me. I'm flying my big ones out West.

Did anyone get a chance to give the strip a mow!

Nice job as always George, hope it flies as nice as it looks.
