I'll chuck in an order if you want. I can't seem them NOT going. Especially now that they have satellites coming for them --Edit-- See here! http://www.parramatta.rcflyingclub.com/mybb/showthread.ph...

I didn't get an sms

Thanks Chris, Stephen hooked me up with one. Doubt I'll get to use it this weekend with the way the weather is going.

No motor/esc, you ordered a pilot model and clevises. They're on their way now

Approx US$44.70 Landed + AU$12.48 for your other bits

I can order it, Just a heads up that it will cost more to ship than what its worth. Aslong as your cool with that, I'll put it in asap

It would have been head tracking goggles. They just put a gyro in the goggles and the camera follows your head movement. I do similar things with my flight & driving sims: http://www.naturalpoint.com/...

Thread for spare parts requests! Anybody got a Turnigy 35-48 -1100kv motor lying around?

Correct, I made the post way back when then stickied it. Now you compelled me to fix it!

I'm stuck with gig's again this weekend, in fact we're launching my Wife's 5th album. Will be away next weekend at the instructors course as well.

Are you under duress!? :paranoid: Modelfllight are a mixed bag with me at the moment, Some of their prices, especially rx's are an outright ripoff (AR600 should be closer to $50 than $70 and they'd s...

Avalon 2011 Something to consider booking now if you are interested in going: at those prices, why drive? I have emailed the organizers for camping, it is $30 per night per person I have asked them...

Merged the 2 Luton build threads into one. I reckon for a power setup, have a look at these combo's for inspiration: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_listCategoriesAndProducts.asp?idCatego...

Depends on how much else gets ordered from HK Aus. They have a flat rate up to 7kg so it would be best to make the most of it. I haven't worked it out per gram yet but there are $ savings across the b...

Next Order Deadline:Whenever sufficient are items ordered! PLEASE READ THE RULES VERY CAREFULLY!!! ONLY ONLY ONLY PUT ORDERS AND COMMENTS AS SPECIFIED, NO OTHER TEXT WHATSOEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER!...

Fixed the link

Sorry to here that Andrew, thoughts are with you. As always, the most perfect flying weather and I'm stuck here doing SFA!!!

Just thought I'd post this trailer of the latest installment of the LockOn/DCS flight sims featuring the A10 Warthog, Turn the sound up and definitely watch in full screen 720p http://www.youtube.com/...

Yeah, definitley look at KF Airfoils, much simpler build with tunable performance characteristics per airfoil http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6H-s7yuJcwk

I wouldn't want the flying characteristics of a Stryker to be like the funjet, thats kind of a step backwards! Durability at speed however....

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8863 is what you are after if your radio can't do it. I doubt the torque would be such a great issue cos there will be a mechanical l...

The Flymentor only gets turned on when I lose orientation, and brings the heli back into a hover, other than that its just along for the ride.

Thanks for the vids/pics Rob and to you and Steve for helping with the search, the vids will make explaining it to wifey much easier ("See I CAN fly it, even if its only for a short period!") This wa...

We found the problem ;) Trashed my heli today, let it get too far away and lost orientation... Rob has pics. Now to stick with 450 or go 500!

Very strange that it just goes psycho, I'd want to see if its a reversing issue or it could be vibration related. Have you got some foam tape insulating the gyro? Thanks for the site Andrew, lookin...

I don't mind doing Australian orders, I doubt we would manage a weekly order unless there is sufficient people ordering, I'll have a look at the maths and see if I can find a clear threshold where its...

I know someone makes a 600 size Huey fuse but its exxy. Unfortunatley the 600 size is kinda new (compared to 500/450) so the chinese haven't had time to retool just yet.

Where did you place the battery? If you had it too far forward that would make it hard to fly with low power. We've flown with much much heavier batteries.

Just woke up to rain on the balcony roof. Hopefully will try for tomorrow or Monday

Yeps, I had a heap of momentum and thought bugger it, try a loop! It really washed the airspeed off however and turned into an inverted plumet, luckily I was in idle up so I pumped the collective down...

Problem with converting his DX7 though is that whilst you can easily resolder the sticks and trim tabs to do what he wants, the trim display can't be changed which would make it a PITA

Look at the Dx8, they are mode changeable which should ease transistion and keep your RX's relevant and has telemetry available on new receivers. Other radios I have considered if a decent rx supply e...

No wing sweep as of yet, but all things considered this F-14 maiden is already more successful than the original Grumman F-14 maiden (Which crashed!)

Oooh, WW2 Era German jets are only scale if they routinely burst into flames ;)

Been thinking of doing that for ages. Lots of Y-Leads and Delta mixers required if the radio isn't up to the challenge!

Sorry Rob, been heaps busy of late. I'll see if I can find some time to get around to your place. What you're looking for Rob is Mode3 and with the DX7, it just doesn't look possible without modifyin...

I'm cheering, first inverted flight with my heli. I'm loving it

Make nose strut longer, the mains look like a bit far back from the CoG

G'day Mate, http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=8944 is where they're at. I bought some lengths of plastic from bunnings to stick them on to, makes it easier to move the...

I'll sling you my spare

How to handlaunch... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgkecfP1O2w Incase you were wondering ;)

More from the copter that will probably end up ruling us all! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geqip_0Vjec

Having a great weekend so far! A bit of carnage is always present on the first day of a meet: BUT! The EAGLE HAS MAIDENED! Also had the sheer pleasure of a flyover by 2 P51's from Melbourne...

Steve, Kev, Do you wanna pay me like a group order and I'll sort Mick out?

Looks awesome mate, Can't wait to see it fly :thumbup:

Only problem with the Prospect AWS is that it only updates 4 times a day if we're lucky. Better off with Fairfield/Horsley park.

Darrens gonna mow Saturday morning

Weather is absolutely guaranteed to be perfect on Saturday/Sunday; I have to go to Armidale :(

No PM's on this forum Wobbly, that's why you can't work out how to do em! ;)

I remember that GeeBee to be crazy quick. I'll take it!
