Thats great Dave I was a little suspicious when you said it was probably the Align Servos fault... I thought yeh right! Glad the beast is sorted. Hope to be flying tomorrow from 9am waeather permit...

That sucks Dave

Looks sweet Dave!

Of course it would.... right up until the foam caught fire.... then it would be anything but cool............ get it! Looks like a sweet ride though Steve.... its on my HK wishlist already[hr] S...

Very Nice !!!!!!

I agree, guys, great idea but I dont think we would have a hope in hades getting approval for that.

If you wanted to go a step further Drew, We could host Build/Repair workshops for anyone that is new to RC that is happy to part with a few dollars to get asistance from people with years of RC exper...

Im certainly no expert mate but would be more than happy to help out.

I agree with Steve 100% I have not owned the Durafly or the Dynam but I have flown both of them on a number of occasions, particularly with maidens to help nervous pilots with their first flight and ...

The old school general rule of thumb was to learn on a high wing aircraft they have a natural self leveling effect because of the high wing and slight dihedral, but that is old school, there are a wid...

I know 2 other people who are both very experienced pilots that owned this particular aircraft, they both said that they wouldnt say they were real 3D aircraft but were pretty good for what they are a...

Nice pics George! That servo looks like a good replacement for the rudder, probably got a lot more torque than you need but better to stong than to weak.

Don't stress yourself out champ, I have flown quite a few Bibes and generally speaking they are pretty well behaved on the ground dependant of course on the wheel/axle to C of G position. They have a ...

Nice work mate.... what is with you and superseeded models?

Way to go Exocoetidae I think that is a great purchase, Eflite airframes are brilliant and I don't know anyone else who has one ... so that has to be a bonus! Gazz

What wrong with the Eratix Champ?

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.

I haven't put one in mine yet Wayne because the batteries etc. have been coming down colder than a blue whales left knacker... so I just haven't bothered, but your power system is very different to mi...

Im not running the pull pull system Wayne, and for memory Frank is using the same set up as me. If you look at the specs supplied they suggest mounting the rudder servo at the back to save weight, y...

Don't do that Wayne, vernier the threads and let me know what size they are. I may well have a set of dies at work and can run the threads down for you, then you can just cut them off to length and a...

I dont want to sound like a smart arse mate but have you checked the length of the other rods supplied, those ones look like the elevator/ rudder rods. If they are the wrong length then I recon a trip...

I don't recall having any issues with mine either Wayne. Here are a few shots of my Aileron installation. :D I used extra long servo arms that I bought from Hobbies in the Hills to get the throws I ...

Where did you get the scale? That sounds like its just in the right range.

As Kieran said, your plugs are a personal choise thing. And I personally think Deans are crap. I use bullets on everything because they are so easy to solder and the design assures you will NEVER ge...

I've only been flying for just over 3 years. I have owned well over 30 aircraft, I have sold at least 8, crashed 6 (only 3 were my fault)and have 3 still in unopened boxes in my Hanger closet, I am ...

Not biased towards 3D .... come on Jas .... you.... no way... would never have picked that mate .....:-)

My PC9's flight weight is 3.8 kgs. Seems pretty resonable to me. Its not a 3D plane Jas its arobatic like the PC9, its just that Sebart builds such great aircraft that it is capable of semi 3D fligh...

Hey Kev Might be time to start thinking about a PC 9 upgrade (is that possible?) Its big brother has arrived It looks like my good friends at Sebart have been burning the midnight oil to do just th...

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

This isn't a doco its just some magic footage my brother sent me of a GPS approach flying a KC 30 into Queenstown NZ. It has been sped up to fit the music, he's a clever dood I think.... http://ww...

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

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

Hey Darren Are you after a few spares, If you can afford it this looks pretty sweet. http://www.rctrader.com.au/component/adsmanager/?page=show_ad&adid=7934

Hi Dazza Did you know that Stumax has just released a fan that with fit in you Habu http://www.rc-warbirds.com/product_info.php/products_id/1234 Sweet ride mate Gazz

The cut out being off centre and to the right is standard on any good quality airframe Pete. It applies thrust down and to the right to compensate for throttle and torque. You will notice when you bo...

The G46 on 5S will pull the wings off it mate..... yeeeeehaaaa. I run a 13 x8 prop on my PC9 that draws just over 70 amps. With the Decathalon I recon a 12 x 10 or 12 x 9 would be a tractor and keep...

Claudio..... me thinks you may have a dark side??????

Frank/Jason Had to let you YAK 55 junkies know about this lovely beastie, 2800mm wingspan..... Yeeeeeeehhaaaaaaaa ! http://www.rctrader.com/category/310/GasPetrol/listings/8506/Aeroworks-Yak55-1...

That certainly is a big motor, did you buy the Spruce Goose mate? I suppose you get what you pay for Frank... HK stuff is more than reasonably priced and is certainly a good financial option, but I g...

The APC's would be a better choice, I personally would not use a heavy prop for electric flight particularly on a 3D bird. As I said I a previous post the light wood electrics are much more suited to ...

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...

The light beech props that Jason recommended are actually for IC engines, I have used them before and they are very good props but but are a little on the heavy side, these are more suitable for elect...

I get my big wooden props from HK, they do up to 21" in the light wooden electrics and they are beautifully balanced. Hobbies in the hills carries just about everything APC but are obviously a little...

These things happen for a reason Rob.................... Keep it! Gazz

Just thought I would jump in and help Rob out here !!! If anyone has been thinking about getting their first EDF.... grab a bargain and pounce on the Alpha Jet. I know because it used to belong to me...

That's great news Frank, glad to hear it all when smoothly you got the bugs ironed out and you enjoyed all your flights... but the best news is that you took it home in one piece ;)

I didn't see any mention of "air out" holes Frank, don't forget to put a hole about 8mm in diameter down toward the tail on the underside of the fuse to let the air flow. There is no point in putting ...
