Most if not all of the FMS models I have seen are a very good quality airframe, but they are all let down by very poor quality electronics and the retracts are rubbish. I have the FMS Trojan and it f...

Only guys I know that do FMS are those F**ken Wan**rs in Queensland, and you don't even want to think about dealing with them.

Looks the goods Frank...... you really can't beat FMS's bang for your buck.

What do you mean "one of the best looking planes in the air" they are THE best looking plane in the air ... period!

I hope its a bloody big "Man Cave" Steve, you gotta make sure your squadron have room for growth! My missus has been giving me a hard time latley because my "Squadron" appears to be overflowing and t...

Welcome to the club Steve... you might be a little concerned about the ramifications ie: a few nights on the couch, but once you get the big T into the air, you will have a smile a mile wide.

I hope they've all got wings, or something thereabouts!

Jees Dave thats a great idea... I wonder where you got that brainstorm from...... So I take it from reading the above that you dont need to borrow the 4S batteries for the weekend. How is the sub st...

I will be keen to hear your finding on the motor test Steve. I have as a matter of course already replaced the ESC in my Trojan to a Turnigy Plush 60. When I get it finished I will do a few ground t...

Well if the friggin weather continues the way it has for the last 6 to 9 months we might as well all throw our batteries in the bin.

Hi Dave After our discussion last night. I completed my T 28, lots of mucking around but replaced the rooted gear door servo, all working sweet know. I amp tested the standard ESC with 2 brand new (...

Weather permitting....ha ha haaaaa. I will give the big Trojan a fly at A51 tomorrow. Franks and Georges both fly well so Im not stressed about the performance, however if the motor doesn't cut the m...

I use Sikaflex 241. It dries very hard but can be cut with an exacto knife for removal if required. It is a marine adhesive sealant available from some hardware stores and shipchandlers.

Hey Dave If you need another option, I have some very small servo speed controllers that have reversers built in. They are yours if you need them.

I finished my Trojan last night at 11 pm, dropped in the battery to test everything and when I hit the retract down switch everything worked except the right hand door just went "click,click,click,cli...

I also pulled mine out of the box last night. And quickley decided that this aircraft would require a few tiny but crutial upgrades to pass my G load tests (also know as aerobatic flight). I have cut...

Hey Steve I'm feeling generous and since I will be picking up my new Sukhoi in 2 weeks would you like to do a straight swap, my old one for the Striker frame? I will even drop it over to your place...

Keep circling Claudio. If Steve doesn't want it, you can have it for $80. But wait there's more ......... If you ring now ..........we'll even through in a set of Steak knives ............

I wasn't planning on shoving it in the bin. It can sit and wait for as long as it takes for me to get the time to fix it. But I need the space ..... its not a small plane you know! besides that ... i...
