Important to keep an eye on the guidance from Committee, State Association & Insurers, just because there is an announcement somewhere doesn't automatically mean that the field can open up.

Problem has been tracked down to a bug in the latest version of the Forum software. For those interested, the response below from a contributor nailed the issue... If you still think you don't have ac...

G'day All, I'm aware some will be having difficulties accessing other parts of the forum, I am working on a solution.

It could be mislabeled and has a higher winding. Just reduce your prop pitch to accommodate!

That does seem high. Have you tried playing with esc timing? Maybe it got it wrong...

Keep in mind that your amp draw will drop slightly when in flight due to the prop unloading and you'll have airflow to keep things cooler. Depending on your self restraint, you could safely fly that 1...

I used to just work in Watts and whether the plane needed to go fast or slow. The motor will happily swing a 12in low pitch prop on 3s. You'll get a nice slow flyer with lots of static thrust but not ...

Mike Patey is one of my favorite Youtube channels ??

I wont speak for our current committee, In the past it would be considered 5 visits before it expected that a flyer become a member. The insurance side of things: https://www.maaa.asn.au/images/pd...

There are politics at play with the Jumper radio with the firmware it is based off. It wont necessarily get as good support from the OpenTX team as FRSky does. My suggestion would be a FRSky Taranis w...

That backwards FPV plane that I fly is currently on sale for $110 at BangGood, probably the best bang for buck I've seen in a long time, a great flyer and wonderful FPV platform: If you were consid...

Awesome, can't wait to see how it goes

I think its time for you to upgrade from EDF to Turbine!

Was a beautiful day for flying, Field looks amazing! Had a terrible day attrition wise! Ripped he gear out of my EDF before it even got airborn, Had a range fade and broke my favourite quad and then ...

I'm going to attempt to make an appearance

Whats crazy is that this guy does it line of sight!

I'm really sorry guys, I intended to fly this weekend so its raining!

Very interesting, I really need to pull my finger out and finish my mission Bix3. I bought all the AP Gear under the sun ages ago and its probably all well and truly outdated by now! What controller/s...

I like your thinking ;)

I literally have 4 planes ahead of this on my 2 year long build queue. But its very tempting....

Yes, god knows why it went in but it was when they tore up all of the area next to the gate3

History Lesson! Around 1989 the whole basin was dug up and replaced with wire bound rock several ft down. It used to be able to absorb water at an astonishing rate and would require about 1 week of de...

Haven't flown in aaaages! Was glad to get down to the AGM and get a couple of flights in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ak9tS3EZ_ZI

Just keep in mind our MAAA insurance only covers us at flying fields however. Also fun to note our field is in a absolute no don't fly here zone! We are however cleared with CASA to fly there.

There was always an old saying about PRCAC, If you can fly there, you can fly anywhere. These guys need to suck it up and get skillz ;)

I'm not sure if I should Congratulate you or Ban you ;)

Marvin, Call me ;)

You really need one for transmitter AND receiver. Do you need one or two?

Nice Job :thumbup::thumbup:

I don't trust stoppers, too much potential for it to slip, even if you loctite the screw. To that effect, I don't like anything on my planes that isn't mechanically attached by > 1 point of failure. ...

Whoops, I slept in! Is it still set up?

I wont speak for our current committee but as an example from the past; The "Heli area" never existed when the club founded but was adopted when members started mowing the area and using it for hover ...

The beauty of FPV is that you don't necessarily need to exclusively fly where you physically are, Track could be on far side of reeds under power lines and still well within safety guidelines. Any pla...

I don't have diversity on my FatSharks and they haven't dropped out yet around the whole PRCAC basin. You'd definitely throw the whip antenna in the bin and replace it with a good cloverleaf though. ...

I would love to give racing a go, I saw the pics from last Sunday and raced down this Sunday and only Jason, Peter and Bob were there! I have to be very non committal as I have a very busy couple of...

Gah, sad I missed it! Looks like fun

Can't go past a PA Addiction! Or are you looking a bit more Sports 3d?

I don't know about super hot glue but some of my fastest foamy park jets (think 150-200kph) had $2 Shop hot glue holding he servo's in place along with the requisite gaffer tape. Never had an issue ev...

Walked in for a quick fly at 11, the field has been beautifully mowed but there is standing water in the low parts.

Thats impressive, this one is mega impressive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nn_afSOwmqo

Got to have my first ever FPV Flight this morning, Damn I'm hooked! It was very fun and I found it much easier than flying LoS, Made it through some of the Gates Jason had set up, albeit very slowly.....

Here is the report from an RPA Crash earlier this year: http://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2015/aair/ao-2015-035.aspx Interesting to see how the report is laid out. A few am...

Lets get an oval going first Bob ;)

And naturally, it will rain tomorrow :upset:

Thanks for this Jason, I'll have a look at these. The more I look into this, the more I'm impressed, I'll probably do a whole set of audio files next time we have our voice over actress in the studio....
