My Seb Srt Sukhoi 29S 50E had its maiden on sunday..... I am overwhelmed by how it behaved in the sky .... (Thanks Darren and Kiren for your help) You can expect to see a lot more of this magnificent ...

Don't sweat to much about your build time mate. I'm still building a 90mm Jet Teng L39 that I bought 2 years ago.... Its almost there... but not quite.

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...

Sorry mate, I was not suggesting you were being negative. You could always reverse the concept and build a bus with an up ramp at the back and a down ramp at the front, that way we could just drive o...

I agree Jason, that flight could have been another 100 ft if the pilot controlled the flair.

Depends on who you are buying it from Chris. I have purchased a few things from Esprit Model in the USA. And I actually speak to them and get custom shipping done through Express American Post. (Not...

Thanks for the offer John, watch the forum to see when we agree to hit the field.

I will have to write a nice message to Santa, hopefully the fat bastard doesn't forget me this year.

I will be flying this morning... probably won't be flying tomorrow, but you never know!

This weather is to good to miss. Im off to the field for an afternoon fly. Gazz Just got back from Utopia (I mean the field) Zero wind. Not a cloud in the sky. A freshly mowed strip. And...

I don't know shit... but simply looking at the airframe I'd agree and believe the tailplane and most importantly the Vertical stab are way too small.

You are spot on Rob, dont need sound card thingies, you should hear the great sound of the big twins at full throttle, the ground test blew me away, not only does it sound pretty sweet but its got big...

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...

Next time you deceide to head up there let me know and I will come with. Thats trendy teenage talk for you old folk. I will have my L39 finished in a few weeks, and it is gunna need some room.

Don't get me started!!!!!!

Steve I will join you Friday. What time are you mowing

Thanks heaps for posting that info Dave. A very informative read. Gazz

Thanks Jason I will put a tick in that box then

Hi Steve Look forward to seeing down at the field soon. We are a very friendly bunch and would be happy to help you step from 4 wheels to 2 wings. You can catch us any weekend the weather is fine b...

Dont get me wrong Johnathan. If you are keen to build your own plane then by all means go ahead, its just that flying a home built, untried and unproven aircraft will only make the learning process sl...

What wrong with the Eratix Champ?

The Weather looks terriffic today and the weather bureau has done a backflip, so I guess I will see you all down at the field. Gazz

Just weighed the PC9 for you Steve. Take off weight is 2790 grams with a Turnigy 5S 4000 30-40C battery. Am running this Turnigy 85 amp ESC with built in 5 amp BEC that also comes with an On/Off...

You hit the nail on the head there Paul, I was going to join Steve for some combat aircraft evaluation today but the wind is howling. So I stopped to check the field on the way home and I am sorry to ...

There are certainly some beautiful aircraft there John.... but I will have to wait until I retire before I get the time to SCRATCH BUILD anything. Its a dying art, and that is a shame... but who has t...

Hi Paul I know you got your L39 from Extreme RC but they make 2 different 90mm L39's that are almost identical in size, and they both come in the HPAT colour scheme I want. Jet Teng which sells deli...

Thanks Dave I will ring you and let you know what is happening, weather permitting. Gazz

That looks sweet as Kev, looking forward to seeing that tear up the sky.

I will have a look at it if you are flying out west today.

Thanks for that nice little weather report, I thought I would counter with this short retort. Dont be dismayed by the wind everywhere, in conditions like this dont fly planes in the air. Lets hope...

Hope you all have a great christi and an even better new year. Cheers Gazz

Sorry Edited Version Not Happy

Hey Steve You know that MIG of yours.....prepare to meet your maker boy.... me and my F86 Sabre are coming for you.

Disconcerting is an understatment Jason, At the time I thought "Oh No, Goodbuy DW." No Dave... I have not repaired it yet. I am going to modify the firewall mounts on both motors and that is going t...

Crosswind, crosswind... what crosswind? Unless the footage of the landings was shot on a different day at a different location, all the other photography showed what appeared to be almost perfect cond...

Ive got a 13 x 6.5 you can try mate. Its a spare for my Deuces Wild and surprise surprise, I'm running a Power 32 on 4S in that.

Good purchase Pete, being a bipe fan I love the Pitts, and from what I been told they are a pretty good PNP airframe. I'll keep an eye out for that one at the field. Gazz

Good for you Pete No time like NOW to really jump in there and completely go west and get yourself a heli. Good luck with it my friend. One small piece of advice.............. little steps............

Thanks mate... I will be looking into a transport box or two myself.

Hi Steve Got caught up at work till really late, and I dont think I will get a chance to get to Kellets to pick up the balsa I need for repairs so I will get the solar film off you this weekend. Che...

Now that's just SAD. Ive been buying a lot of gear from them for about 6 years now and it is very disappointing to see the doors close.... Has anybody heard if they are having a closing down stock sa...

Dave is down at the other field is anybody would like to join him. Conditions are great

Hi Guys Just stumbled accross this on E Bay while looking at E flite stuff. If anyone is thinking about retrofitting their T28 with an Eflite Power 15 this motor mount is definatley the goods. http...

You can almost smell the kero - NOT!

Don't mean to be nasty guys... but thats why they were $99

The weekend beckons and weather permitting I will be at the field from 8 am. See you all there. PS Sunday is looking a little ordinary. Gazz

Looking good Steve. Thanks for all the preliminary work mate. Now I can steal your idea ha ha... although to be honest I have done a lot of reasearch on these things and was planning on doing somethi...

Hey Hawkman Were were you this weekend dood. You missed the best flying conditions in a long time. Ive replaced the Eflite Power 46 bearings fitted a new APC 13 x 8 and it is back to its former glo...

Sorry I can't make it down to help out.... but as usual I'm stuck at work till late. Gazz

I still use the standard 1800 battery to fly mine when all my 2200's are dead. I get a comfortable 5 minute flight from it with prettey aggresive throttle use. With that said I get over 6 minutes wit...
