Ive got a nice big Kyosho Edge 540 Red Bull SE that you could get back in the sky for a song! Going cheap!

OK, this one is a request for opinions on my NEXT purchase. I have given up waiting for model flight to get the Seb Art Sukhoi 140 I have been waiting for for over 6 months. These are the 2 aircraft...

Good stuff George Thats a nice looking ride. Our runway is certainly long enough to handle it, I dont think that would need to land too fast, you just need to concentrate on getting your approach rig...

I think Steve is in the middle of building one of those Arron.

Here is a sneak peek at my Kirby Chambliss Red Bull Edge 540, just waiting on servos to finish the majestic beast off. This thing runs a Dualsky MG5050 an will twist itself out of your hands running o...

Hi Jason Steve is the research guru on the Skyfuns, He is the one who burnt out a shit load of motors and ESC's trying to find a reliable motor that would supply serious YEEHAAAAAAAAAAA. I am runn...

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...

Finished my new Seb Art Katana 50. Just waiting on the Servos from Hobbyking as well as the Hacker Motor and Dualsky ESC to arrive from Model Flight and we will have lift off. My Sukhoi now has stab...

I am in the middle of a new build myself. What servos are you thinking of running. I have just ordered these beasties for my new build which also has a flight weight of 2800grams. http://www.hobbyk...

That would be a great plane for training people to go from beginner to sports. I think it would be even better if you ran it on 4S, but you would want to put a decent spar in the wing if you were goin...

Thanks for the link Claudio......... hmmmmmmm ...... I think I have found something that I ......... never mind!

Hey guys and Dave in particular, you know you were interested in a Deuces Wild, well this one is a bargain. Only problem is its in WA http://www.rctrader.com/category/340/Electric/listings/2027/E-FL...

Thanks Paul Didn't think of that option, but it is a good one. I will look into it. Cheers Gazz

Hi Jason or anyone else that can help. The canopy off my Seb Art Sukhoi decieded to part company with the aircraft last weekend, after spending over 2 hours in the bull rushes, it could not be found....

Thanks all I looked at and almost bought a Go Pro II while on holidays in Coffs recently. I have told the financial controller that is what I want Santa to get me. That is of course if the fat bast...

Question for Claudio and Jason Can you have a look at this camera and let me know if it sounds any good. http://www.modelflight.com.au/products/FlycamOne_3_Core_VGA_Camera_w_TFT_Screen-9916-156.ht...

Thanks again Steve The 12 x 12 I need is a 3 blade, but after doing the maths a 4 blade 12 x 11 will be the ducks guts with the Hacker setup I'm using, and I found that through one of your links, the...

Yeh !!!! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!! Nice response, I would have expected nothing less, full marks mate.

Jason Steve is up the coast with the family on holidays and wont be back until about the 6th of Jan. Rob Is it uncomfortable or is having props coming out of your arse something that you do regul...

Hello Pilots Just thought I would drop this link on you all. I have done hundreds of google searches for a multitude of reasons all R/C but never come accross these guys. They are based in Maitland...

F 27C STRYKER IS BACK Yse folks you heard it here first. Model flight is resupplying. If you want one you have to pre order they will be available mid May for the sum of $329 PNP. Just thought I wouk...

Another thing you can do stop over control which causes elevon failure on the Skyfuns is to set your elevons up with dual rates. I take off and land with my servos set at 100% but once airborn and ap...

You are probably on the money with the bearing change Jason. After my PC9 dissaster I striped and checked the motor and bearings and they seemed and felt OK. But during the first flight it developed...

Hi Wobbly I used 15 minute Hobby King Med cure epoxy to build my Skyfun and it is as strong as a battleship. The CA glues are OK but dont have any real tortional strength. So even if it did glue to...

Finally finished the beastie.... Sweeeeeeett!

Steve Can you tell me what timing you are running on your Scorpion 2221-8 motor? Thanks

Almost done. Paint job finally finished

HEY STEVE THAT'S WHAT I AM TALKIN ABOUT !!!!!! LOOKS LIKE SOME SERIOUS BOOTY YOU GOT BOLTED IN THERE. Hope im there Sunday to see the fireworks..... Should be "fully sick bro". Your paint job look...

Hello all Who and what is OMP. By the way Steve, did you know that you need a licence for space flight, that motor looks big enough to launch the space shuttle... if you bolted that sucker onto Paul...

Hey Kieran Cant find wing set up or anything to do with Delta in my radio. I have Mix 1 / Mix 2 or Wingtailmix setup????with elevon dualaileron or whoops forget about it my scroll wheel just died .....

Hey Kev Youve got a DX6i What do you plug your servos into on the receiver? Do I need a Y harness or is it programmed in the radio? And how do you set up the elevon mix? I havent put my radio gear...

Hello fellow Skyfun pilots Just picking all your brains again (Kiran,Kev,Steve) can anyone give me a good C of G measurement from the tip of the nose for the Skyfun. The manual says it should be slig...

Hey Steve Good to see your Funjet upgrade progressing. I have modified my wings to run the servos on the top of the wings as well and will be running HK digital metal servos. It makes sense... don"t...

Hey Steve That engine mount looks awsome. I would take it easy on applying too many coats of urathane. It is not very strong at all until mixed with fibreglass. Just as polyester resin is brittle a...

Now that sounds like a plan Steve My construction is progressing nicely. Striped all the decals, sanded the airframe and just this afternoon finnished epoxying the whole thing together. Ive retapped...

OK plane construction has commenced. Carbon fibre and fulalage glassing will commence this week I have recieved my Scorpion 2221-8 motor (same as Steves) and have ordered an 85 amp ESC that is 40 gr...

Steve I will be flying tomorrow but have to work in the morning and wont get down to the field before 12 at the earliest Will see you then to discuss engine mounts if you are still there.

My Skyfun is fitted with the standard mount thanks Steve, I was going to upgrade prior to construction to avoid the posibility of failue as I have read a few of you guys have had issues with the stan...

Howdy all Yo Sky Fun Jet compatriots Steve suggested upgrading or replacing the standard motor mount as he has had 1 or 2 fail Does anyone have a part number or website that has a suitable replacm...

Hey Steve Thanks heaps for all the information. Your a champion, I really do appreciate all your help The plan it to build a thermonuclear bullet, but Im only a rookie so we will have to wait and s...

Hello aviators It is all your fault... Yes thats right .....Steve, Kev and Kieran I have been watching you,.... screaming around the sky at Mach 2 It looks like way to much fun So now I want to pl...

I'm pretty sure he used these. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__9218__Canopy_Lock_30x8mm_10pcs_bag_.html Gazz

Thanks for taking the time to read our build thread Space Angel. You will love the big Super Tucano, they fly very scale, the only problem with the airframe is that it is very heavy, once you add all...

Yes it will mate, but I am trying to keep the weight down in the thing, thats why I am trying this out. If it is still a little lack lustre in performance I can up the S rating, but I will try it on 6...

Change of plans George. Picked up an OS 375 from H in the H. I will replace the OS 490 that I am running in it on 6S at the moment with the 375. the 490 is running out of puff spinning the 15 x 8/2 ...

I was running this motor on 10S in my Sebart Sukhoi 140 spinning a 20 x 12 2 blade, it weighed 4.6 kgs and flew like magic,until a BEC failure killed it. I would actually rather run an Eflite 160 245...

Hi George Just thought I would give you a little update on my Super Tucano. The last few times I've flown it (at PEMAC) it has been pulsing a lttle at full throttle, and that is something that both...

Nice work George..... Pretty impressed with those brakes ... they work well ...Dooh!!!

Well done mate, you need to get that C of G sorted though!. Mine flew straight and level with no trim required at all. Glad you had a sucssesful first flight.

Sweet ...... thats a good idea, I couldn't be stuffed driving all the way out there with the weather so unpredictable.... I think I will fly at McCoy!
