you can also buy solid foam cones from spotlight for a couple of dollars , just cut them down to size and bingo , glue the new nose cone on , sand to shape , and paint / or cover .

I use a foam tube that kids use as floats in pools . $5 at 2nds world. Or 2 dollar shop , they are hollow , cut and slice and they fit over leading edges for hanging testing etc

mate 8S will be spinning that prop at around 8500 rpm . my one on 12S WILL BE DOING ALSO 8500 RPM , 8S is a lot lighter than 12s but the 12 s will spin a 21 x10 . i think like you say 8s will be...

INTERESTING MOTOR , this will pull 90 amps on 6s with a 20x8 prop , 4.5kg plane recommended , 370kv . pretty impressive on youtube vids . my motor on 12s 190 kv will have similar rpm and will weig...

cool , thanks for the tips . i'm off next weekend so i'll have a look at yours on the field , i'll probably stick with the 6s 3000's as well as i have some and will buy a few more . this will be a s...

Very interesting last statement there SMUZZ . 100 years from NOW i wonder if flying rc will be any fun, the closest i can speculate will be sending an auto flyer to another country to find a hidden o...

have a great day guys , i regret not being able to go , last it was great as a spectator. but i'm rostered on all weekend . the year has gone quick .

Im not getting the sebart , just showing the motor performance . Ill be getting the super n cheaper yak 55m 72" , 2nd. Best choice.

Thanks for the info Jason , i know your planes setups ,, one of them is on my MX2 , and i'm more than impressed with it . infact i toned it down a little from the 700kv LOL . THE TRADE OFF I KNOW , ...

^^^^^^ I HAVE A VESTED INTEREST IN THIS MOTOR ON 12S , I'm looking forward to the differences in flight characteristics with this setup . not much on youtube with these low kv motors unless its on a ...

excellent George , that's just what i wanted to hear . i can get a switch with BEC voltage display and audible alarm on it i think if the bec voltage drops , so thats good , with the module , i wou...

thanks for the reply Gary , its good to know these temp limits on batteries , the dx8 setup instructions are simple , and just suggest receiver voltage readings and battery temps , it does say you c...

DX8 TELEMETRY ? Has anybody used this feature with the DX8 8000R RECEIVER AND TELEMETRY MODULE ? in the box comes a telemetry kit module which plugs into t...

nice work . looking forward to seeing how this thing will fly .

yep i think i'll go with the sk3 192 KV, looking at youtube vids most are running 10S, A NICE 20X12 OR 21X10E prop might just give it some nice floaty charactoristic , and if i'm not impressed theres ...

OK GUYS . thinking of a 1.8m 71 inch wingspan 3d plane , as my next build , i currently have an mx2 57 inch 2.3kg plane with a 5050 580 kv NRM prop drive motor which puts out upto 80 amps 2000 watt...

SORRY TO HIJAK THE THREAD GUYS . but i was thinking a plane this size i might be a little different , and run this motor sk3 64/74 192kv on 12s . rather than the g160 290kv on 12 s . what do you ...

hi wayne where did you buy this plane from ? do they advertise prices , searching for a buying link with prices , no luck so far .

mate no worries , i'm not there all the time either , theres no hurry , if you want it sooner rather than later i'll put it in the field box for you or leave it with someone you see often , cheers .

waits for video footage ...........

hey mate was looking for you all day . i have a prop to suit on the motor as well . it is in my boot . a blue falcon sedan xr6 . when you see it come over and take the motor . cheers .

WELL i came home fulfilled and the only crash i had all day was on the lounge . LOL . I really could not think of a better way to spend a Sunday . Pylon racing is something i never considered , but ...

Yeah wayne gotta be happy . As soon as i can ill be starting a build on one too

Ill bring it there . Its yours .

Ive got one its yours for free if you want . It was in a pulse i once owned mount included i think it is the 2308 one 1800 or 1100 kv 3S

there is a ride on mower for sale for $990 UP THE ROAD , HAS BEEN FOR SALE FOR AGES . I WONDER IF A $500 BID WILL SUFFICE . would the committee be interested ?

I Noticed minimal down thrust , but it is there slightly , however its great not having a climbing rarebaer on full thrust . they are certainly set up well stock , and the nano 1000mah 4s battery up ...
