Lookin' good Gazz, Kind of dwarfs the 6 seater dining room table :) It will definitely have some PRESENCE in the air

That looks like a very nice unit !!

I'll be there early tomorrow See you there !!

Well Sunday at Nowra turned out to be a great success, the weather on Saturday wasn't great but there was still plenty of flying being done most of the day. Sunday was a day of serious racing ...

I like the controller it seems to be about 20 times better than the KK2 board. The software used to set it up looks pretty nice and there were no funny things except for some reason it didn't like my...

Yes... model planes are all loaned by the gods and.............. sometimes they want them back!! I lost Viper no1 on Sunday, not much of it left after a mid air around the first pylon, I was jus...

Are there any video's of the machine in flight ??

Ef1 would be a good class to get into, there's not a lot of people flying it. If you have everything prepared and be consistent it wouldn't be too difficult for a new comer to win an EF1 day. ...

Nice We should see some very nice planes at the field if the weather holds for the weekend I have my fingers crossed !!!

I have one of those Make sure you check the tail plane incidence before you fly it Mine was way out. It's a heavy bird and although it's not hard to fly it'll need a bit of strip to land Good luck wi...

Bring it down to the field next weekend and I'll have a look at it Also bring the motor you want to mount on the front of it

That is a bargain !! and they fly so well !!

Well done Wayne !! I'm sorry I wasn't there to see it !! I'm looking forward too seeing it in the air soon How did you find the pulse to fly ?? The Gee Bee is a beautie Steve !!

That's Brilliant !! My lochie was just the same in almost every photo I have of him there is an aeroplane in his hand I'd encourage that :)

Thank's Wayne, yes your right I should decrease the rates to make the stick movements more pronounced but thinking about it, If I do that it makes it less realistic Here's a Cuban 8 http://www.you...

I flew it for the first time yesterday. Pete gave me a hand and launched it for me so I could have both thumbs on the stick in case there were any surprises. There were none. It flew straight and true...

Blacktown it is, and Vinyard is Plan B if they are flying rockets and the field is closed to RC planes (as it sometimes is at Blacktown)

Well obviously all the MAAA rules must apply but to make it fair why don't each of us who are entering make up one rule each. That will do for the first round of rules and if there's not enough ru...

Well done mate!! I'm not surprised at the lipos and motor getting a bit hot That's how race planes are, designed to go flat chat for just 10 laps I guess a reasonable time for 10 laps would be 11...

I think a bit of the money comes from sponsors like JR and Desert Aircraft. I agree tho' How nice would it be to fly a machine like that one !! and how nice would it be to have a field like that to...

Sorry Rob he sold it on the weekend.

What size prop are you running on that Frank and how heavy is it? You might be able to use a softer start on the ESC. A lighter prop might be the answer as well, probably a better one if you can g...

Make sure you put a note on the dodgy ESC so you don't use it on another project !!
