Discussion / Posted by Mooiman1 / Apr 13, 2013 @ 11:42 PM / 1,002 Views / 0 Comments / Reply
Hello Pilots, just a quick question. Has anyone setup the new Hangar 9, Messerschmitt with either an Eflite power 60 or Rimfire .80? If so, did you have to add roughly 4.0 oz of weight to balance it at the recommended 3 1/2 inches?

Thanks

Drew

Hello, I have just ordered this plane and ordered the suggested e-flite power 110. This plane is said to weight 10 to 12 lbs. However I am thinking about changing my order to a power 90. I have seen in threads that some have used power 60s, which I think would be under powered. Would this motor (power 90)be powerful enough to fly this plane--Seagull PC-9, 120 ARF?

Thanks

Good afternoon pilots, I am looking at buying a hangar 9 f4u-1d corsair 50 arf. Does anyone know if the wing assembly is removable for transport/storage?

Thanks

I am currently using Clear View and want something a bit better. What's better for R/C planes, Phoenix or Real Flight? ...why?? Thanks for your help.

I installed one of these in my old PZ T-28 and flew it here today at our field in Las Vegas in 12 to 20 mile an hour gusting winds; it handled amazingly. I landed it perfectly, just like a Hurrier Jet ) level and straight. ...only have a little bit of elevator fluter to tweak out ...only noticed it at full speed up wind and as stated, the wind was guesting up to 20mph here today. I still need to work on the 3D sittings. I have been flying in 2D mode.

Just a quick question for anyone with ParkZone's new Habu 2. I have set mine up and have added almost 2 onces to the tail in order to balance it at the required 4 inches aft of the leading edge. Have any of you encountered this as well?

Thanks

Hey team, I am looking at a Drastik 40, it's a 58 inch stick sold by a company called Texas RC Planes. Have any of you heard of this company or purchased this plane? If so, what are your thoughts quality wise?

Thanks

Pilots I am currently using a Spektrum DX6i, and am looking at upgrading to the DX8. Would you recommend this radio or something different and why? I am looking at an upgrade because I will soon have 12 planes.

...I am also thinking about putting a good gyro in my EF 64' MXS EXP, your thoughts?

Thanks for your inputs/thoughts.

This morning Greg maiden my EF MXS 64" for me; and, it went flawlessly. He only added one click of up trim and two clicks of right aileron trim. It flew as straight as an arrow! ...and the EF power combo is a beast! It sounds fierce in the air and the yellow is awesome!

Hello pilots, I've just received and almost finished assembling my Extreme Flight 64' MXS EXP and have run into a glitch. I went with Hitec MG225 servos and because the elevator and rudder slots are parallel to each other and not off centered, installing one prevents the other from being installed. Has anyone else run into this issue? Thanks for your help.
