Hey Steve, If you are running low on profanities, I am more than happy to sling you a couple... I've got shitloads!!!

Thats a great tip Jason...... All you novice 3D pilots take note. This is the best way to tune you aircraft for well balanced 3D flight.

What wrong with the Eratix Champ?

Well done Frank, looks like your on top of that little sucker.

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 ...

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 ...

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 had a similar smaller version and once it had some air speed it was magic, but they do not like you trying to fly them slowly at all... and by slowly I mean under about 80 kmph. Unless it has gobs ...

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...

You can't be serious Rob... this is a sad day indeed !!!

Hey Rob, If your stuck I can drop by Arrons and pick it up for you? I am available most afternoons around 3.30pm. I will cost you a beer! Gazz

I come past North Parra every afternoon so if you square it away with Arron I can pick it up anytime.

I droped in today to pick up some fasteners rather than going to Ultimate (who is always out of stock). I was more than impressed with the range of aircraft (he has pretty much every aircraft in the ...

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 !!!!

I think it would be smart of us to approach them on a proffesional level (email on club letterhead), and ask them to give our club members a discount on presentation of our club card. Even if it was...

Hobbies In The Hills Has Moved Droped in the Hobbies in the Hills today to pick up a few things and was met with a WE HAVE MOVED sign, so I thought I would let you all know where they are because it ...

Im curious Claudius. With the range available from Eflite.... Why the beast? I droped in last weekend as I said previously to purchase a UMX 4-site but after some discusssion with young whatisface, I...

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...

Now that's just SAD. Ive been buying a lot of gear from them for about 6 years now and it is very disappointing to see the doors close.... Has anybody heard if they are having a closing down stock sa...

You have obviously lost your job too Steve and I really am sorry for that ... but what is Stuart doing with all that stock ?????

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

I tried mine on a both a 4000 and 5000 during initial flight testing and found that the 5000 ruined the flight performance. I fly mine on a Zippy compact 4000 and it isn't a pylon racer but it sure is...

John Here is the link to the retracts I installed in the Rare Bear http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=23483

The HK 1400mm Rare Bear is not an FMS airframe Jason. I've been doing a heap of research myself and the only thing I can find that looks close is the HK 1600mm P51 Mustang prop, but as I dont know th...

Finally got the replacement retracts from HK, they were pretty good actually its is just the backwards and forwards communication that slows things down. Anyway... forcast for tomorrow afternoon is g...

Took the RB up this afternoon after finishing the mowing. First flight was with a 4000 compact as far forward as it would go. It took off in about 5 meters at half throttle, a little trimming followe...

Sure have mate It has got enough torque to blow your budgie smugglers accross the street. 51 amps pulling 1100 watts should be a shade under 6000 rpm. Thats pretty cool on 6S with a 3kg aircraft. ...

More than likely!

I would hazzard a guess that Indolingo has a set up problem with his Rare Bear. The aircraft is very C of G sensative and if your set it up how HK suggest it is very tail heavy and a pig to fly. I had...

No problem at all John, might catch up next weekend!

Its no speed demon, I recon the prop is about a 13 x 6 or thereabouts, so its not all that quick, its just got gobs of power. The prop actually makes the coolest sound at about half throttle but it c...

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...

Hey Kieran Just letting you know that the Servos I have on back order are finally back in stock. Just a friendly reminder. Im sure you already have them on the way. Thanks

After closer inspection, the weight increse is pretty substancial. I think I will watch the internet for a while before I upgrade. Gazz

Hi all Was hoping someone could give me a quick rundown on hown the Hobby king order thing works. Not sure if I am missing something but cant work out how the whole click on this to order thing work...

Thanks heaps Paul Sounds simple when you know how.... I will give it a try Cheers Gazz

I only look at the one for that particular order. I have refered back to previous orders a few times but Im sure if you get ride of the dated stuff it would be sweet. Gazz

Hey Kev J If you want to get a 3D bird and dont want to spend to much this new beastie looks the goods. If I didnt already have a heap of 3D aircraft I would order one of these. http://www.hobbyking...

I dont blame you Rob, If I wasn't saving for a special project I'd buy that sucker in a heartbeat. I recon you could even throw a couple of Jetcat P 20's in those nacelles to turn it into a fully sic...

Hi guys (Kieran especially) I broke the motor mounting bracket on my Hobbyking P51D Mustang last weekend. Every thing else apart from the prop is fine. I do however need a new motor mounting bracket. ...

Hi Kieran I just spent over 2 hours sorting through Lipo's putting an order of batteries together that I need an the buggers have a cap of 3400 mAh or some crap like that. Most of the batteries I wa...

Kieran I have scratched the wheels from the order. Thought they might be handy but if recon they are useless then I will save my money Thanks Gary PS Any work from HK about my Alpha Jet.??

Thanks Kieran I worked it out. For anyone putting in a big order for Lipo's. The total weight MUST be under 4 kgs. I split the order in 2 and it went through no worries wih EMS.

Thanks guys I guess 8 amp BEC it is !!!!
