Thanks Steve. It may make an appearance, or, I might just get one for up here too ;) This one is currently living down in Tas.

Hi all. Right up front, I am having a big want to join your club :D I having been living within 10 minutes drive of it for 4 years (since I moved up form Hobart) and did not know it existed, unt...

All being well I'll be there saturday. Yeah... I need help big time lol.

Hey guys, I haven't been down the shop since it became Hobbyking. Do they still do over the counter sales?. I can't find any info on opening times anymore. I was looking at heading down there satu...

Thanks, just about everything I need to know :thumbup: I might hold off on the radio. ;) Wifey and I had an experience with a pair of certain orange and black ground radios we bought for taking to ...

Excuse my ignorance, but is the MAAA tick the same as the C-tick that electronic goods (and radios) that have been tested and approved for use in Australia carry, or is it another thing all together? ...

Yeah, if a customer sent a radio in for repair or service that had been bought over seas (no C tick), I wasn't even allowed to power it up. I'll go search and check that list now. ***Edit*** I just...

Thanks kizza, that's the one I found. Handy to have the link though.

Just a little something that I thought you guys might like to share. When I was in Norway last year, and passing through Bodø, I dropped into the aviation museum there. Here is some of the photos. ...

Ah, much better... Bodø only had a little cafeteria with 3 different brands of orange fizz in the fridge and an overpriced hedgehog that wifey and I split :lol:

I still want to come down and bombard you all with n00bular questions... I'll keep an eye on the thread in the morning because I also don't want to get my tank bogged :rolleyes:

Well, after dropping into the field today, I went and got a respectable first time air radio, a DX5E and a little 4ch plug and play foamy Cub (1.07m wingspan). I'll get it all bunged together (wit...

Have a good day guys, I'll be stuck surrounded by kits I can't fly nor afford :lol: I'll be down the following week though. I think.

Sorry about the rain... My fault, I bought a plane...

There was discussion today about external BEC's, so I thought I'd share this article I wrote for Crawl Australia/New Zealand. Even though it's based on surface application, the process and requirement...

Oh snap. I'll be up at Vineyard on thursday having a fly with Seen, since under normal circumstances one of us is working while the other isn't. Have fun peeps and see you saturday.

Hey all... I thought I would drop by (actually, I was prodded by one of the members today...) to say hi again. I have been slack and busy at the same time... but since I first started lurking around...

That being that... when is the next indoor session?

Yes, indeedie. How did that medium viscosity Zap work out for you?

I walked into work today (yes, disclaimer, I work at Hobbies in the Hills), and say a stack of Escale Zero's, basically Plug and Play, for $49 each :shock: Easily worth jumping on one until I can f...

Rudder attached, waiting for the slow set epoxy to cure a little more before the main wings go on. http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d104/evilnorm/Zero/DSCF7831.jpg To access the screw holes to ...

Yep... That's what I thought... But I'll be flying my little Hobby Zone Champ for a while yet, no matter what the Phoenix sim tells me. Even though we have "proper" planes hanging in the shop, the she...

That'd be me :leet: Please do say hello.... I need to collect signatures for my club application form :D

Okie, here it is as it was when I last posted: http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d104/evilnorm/Zero/DSCF7835.jpg Next, the prop. Little multi piece 3 blade. Shame the hub is chrome plastic, not allo...

Not at all. I think that LiPO retails close to that... Oh well, if (when) I trowel it, and the battery survives, no loss :lol:

Not low passes, but touch and go's with a little damp. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xff4E7Ozfp0

I was going to be there to collect the last sig required for membership application and get someone to give my Dynam Cub a once over for air worthyness, but once again, the universe says no. I'll be...

Yeah mate, 3 months.

Hey I might even make it down to lodge my entry application :shock:

For your entertainment.... A week a go I was in Tasmania and had my first fly of a 4ch plane, a Escale Electroglide. The first flight was a bit shaky and ended in a low altitude stall. I learned when...

I was heading down to submit my application... but stuff happened and I'm working all week end. Looking for to giving the little Carbon Cub SS it's maiden.

Was lucky enough to see that fly today, as I said to you Gaz, looks a treat.

Well, this is crap (weather). Kinda not sorry I haven't got my Stinson ready to maiden this week end.

Still might be hope... things are very calm right now. Not for me, though. In light of a recent purchase, I need to grab one of those budget AR4000's for the Stinno from work, as I need to save my 6ch...

Ok, this might be mentioned somewhere that I failed to find, or, I could of emailed the club email, but since I couldn't find it I thought it might be better to make a visible thread for others to ref...

Ah, ok .. Thanks Kieren.

See you soon. As a club n00b myself, I can honestly say it's a great, welcoming place.

Well, batteries have been topped up, the Carbon C's settings have been double checked and the Stinson's D/R, throws and C of G has been set... So I'll stick my head up mid morning and make a fool of m...

I've been umming and arring.... there is now way I would attempt to fly in this poo. See you guys next saturday :mad:

Hmmm... bit windy again up these parts. I'll check in here again after lunch.

Sorry my fault. I committed to the club and now no one will fly again...

Well, there is still a puffy little breeze going on, but unless it's ridiculous in the morning I'll be down about 9ish. Currently topping the batteries for the Cub, this AS3X guff is supposed to deal ...

Thanks for a great morning, will be back next week with... something.

A little onboard from today.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omErleiyMM8&feature=youtu.be

Is indeed, Why? from the Extremist.

So, not to be waiting for the bits to fix the Stinson to arrive, I decided to get something else tame to keep in the air when ever possible... So I picked up one of these today. Not a bad build up,...

Yay, another thing for me to hit on the runway :(
