Hi Aaron Sorry that your introduction to this great hobby has been though a supplier that is anything but.... I have to watch my P's and Q's with my responses to this particular group, I know of cou...

You could try hitting it with a heat gun and scraping it off, watch the heat though! or you can try your covering iron up on full power and heat it that way. Gazz

Hi Chris. I just got back to sunny Sydney (NOT!) this afternoon. I am on holidays for the rest of the week. At this stage looking at the forecast flying anywhere looks crap. But if you are going for...

U d man Jas.... U d man !~!

Yes George, Lookin good! But do me a favour and paint that bloody spinner. Mine was red too. Now its black. Although I am thinking about painting it chrome, to make it look "fully sick" bro.

It still exists you just cant cut and paste that link. Try this one, it works for me. http://www.rctrader.com/category/359/Transmitters/listings/5679/JR-11X-24ghz-DSM-radio-case-receiver.html Gaz...

Thinking about going for a fly. Does anybody have a field report. Gazz

Thanks Dave... what a great video, I had better get back to work now!!!

I would be checking everything mate. The whole thing looks out of sortes to me. There is no way I would be flying a new aircraft with a wobble as obvious at that. Vibration and/or imbalance is the ...

Its 6.30 Saturday morning, there is high cloud but athe forcast looks ok so I am heading up to the mission, hope to see a few of you guys up there. Gazz

Thanks for the great Video Jason. They are a personal favorite of mine too. I just missed out on a P38 last week in RC Trader. The guy sold it 5 minutes before I rang him.... Spewing..... It was sti...

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...

I don't like to sound like a smart arse but you will probably find that all those other systems need their own channels, canopy, air brakes, flaps at least 2, thrust vectoring will need at least 2 qui...

As usual Steve I have to pop into work for an hour or so, but should be at the field by 9. Gazz

Jason is right Frank, they will fly nice, but spooling up on throttle will take longer than a lighter prop (which also burns more power). Heavier props are better suited to scale and sports fliers, w...

I'd recon its to put your receiver and battery in to protect them from the water

It really doesn't need that much space Steve. Landing roll is shorter than my PC-9 But now you have asked I will make an effort and carry out said upgrade. The only difficult thing is finding a rep...

Thanks for the physics lesson Leonardo, I already knew that. My electrical flying philosophy is a little different to yours, and I suppose thats a good think because we both look at power consumption ...

No probs mate, Fridays good for me. Should be there about 3 pm.

I am coming down at 9 for a few hours. See you there Chris Gazz

What do you mean you forgot "MOTHERS DAY".......... !!!!!!

Dam straight Kev But I will be flying on 3S to start with. The videos show it haulin the mail on 3S with a simple under arm hand launch. I reconif I want to run it on 4S i will have to up the anti on...

Yes I did mate, took the beastie up twice.

I joined Dave and Kev this morning, needed to get some circuits in. The strip is definatley ok and is probably almost firm enough to mow. it is not ready for large aircraft with wheels though. The b...

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

Hey Andrew I remember you saying you had to add some ballast to the front of your HK500 when you fitted it in the EC 135. How did you work out the correct C of G (so to speak) or did you just te...

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...

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...

Almost forgot to mention.. its is the latest thing from Spectrum and has dual power supply with power sensative redundancy.... so to cut through the technical crap, it runs 2 separate power supplies t...

You have seriously gotta send that to Australias Funniest Videos, I will put money on it that it gets shown and if they play your video on air you get $500 Gazz

I saw the post and thought..... cool a new RC shop. I droped by last weekend because I wanted to pick up a new Seb Art Sukhoi 50E. The website says that a lot of Seb Art models were in stock .... but ...

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...

Didn't think of it that way Dave, I was referring to the fact that most HK aircraft packages are usually way underpowered and if Claudio wants to dabble in a little bit of decent 3D he would need to p...

Has anyone droped by the field and had a look at its condition. Ive beeen flat out all week and haven't had a chance, It will probably need mowing, I know it grows slowly this time of year but we hav...

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

Hey Mick Im an old school engineer so I learnt both Imperial and Metric while I was doing my trade. To cut through the bull. With almost everything in the enginering industry these days, the close c...

Most people fly with their thumbs . I know Kieran flys with his thumbs and index finger.

ALL SOLD

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...

I like to think I'm a pretty smart fella... but I would have thought that an irregular shape like that at the the trailing edge of the prop would have generated more turbulance not reduced it... just ...

Welcome to the club Kev, That will be a very nimble beastie for sure.

They are pretty spectacular, I think they would also be a great aircraft performance tuning tool.

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...

All good moves Jason Welcome to Funjet world, all of the upgrades you have made are spot on, either you have been reading up on the Funjet forum or you are just a very clever dood. All us Funjet jun...

Absolutely... What a great day.... the PEMAC boys and HK get a big Bravo Zulu for a terriffic, proffesional, safe and well organised day out, the only negative was they were not expecting so many peop...

Hi Andrew, 3 cheers for workers comp eh! Sorry about the shoulder. Im sure you are doing all the right things but if you are after a second opinion or would like it seen to sooner rather than later....

Well said Kev, Could not have put it much better myself. Without going on any further Ben. If you are serious about the hobby you really can't go past the DX6i for learning to fly its a good radio ...

I actually did have 45 minutes to burn, thanks for sharing that Kieran, being an engineer I loved listening to the guys explain exactly what was going on. Aren't the mathematics involved beyond cool!
