Here is my EMF shield all finished and ready for testing tomorrow. I will jack up the PWM on the ESC to 16 for starters.

After I put my test Cub on a diet and the machine gun module on one too I finally got the plane to fly and work pretty decent.

Machine gun sound module in action (1 min 8 sec)

Oh, the weather here is horrible

Great Video!! Way too cool!!!!

That machine gun sound module is a definate GOT TO HAVE!!

I loved the scene where I could have sworn I saw you coming down while shooting at yourself. So awesome!!.

In fact it looked like you even flew very close to yourself, even kinda looks like you're stepping out of the way. Nice action, Just loved it.

I would love to buy this machine gun for my LX Folding Wing Corsair. Could I ask you a big favour?
Could you please post links to all the components? I would really appreciate it. Gonna get them for sure.

Thanks for sharing this extremely cool video!

We want more more more please.

Here is another one from today. This jumper is new and does he float.

quit, good stuff man

Not trying to be argumentative here, so tell me to butt out if you want. I use a Eflite 480 920 KV with an APC 10X7 and LOVE it. Running a 30A ESC, max power use is 24A with a 3S 2200 lipo. I run a Spektrum AR600 rcvr in it.The thing hauls, but not too fast to still be easy to fly. Half-throttle putting around is easy flying and batt lasts 10+ min @ 3/4 throttle, longer @ half. Even @ WOT I still show around 3.7 to 3.8V after 8 min. I tried the 9X6, worked well, but not nearly the speed of the 10X7. This Cub has a flattened wing with ailerons and I've embedded a CF bar in it for use as a spar, so no struts. Highly recommend this combination personally, but to each their own. I've got another Cub I use a 18A brushed ESC with the stock can motor, stock 10X8 prop,same 3S lipo with a Spektrum AR500 receiver. I scrapped the stock black box, glad I did. I've used this one MANY hours (until a recent total out due to a stuck elevator servo) with NO problems, although this is the 2nd ESC and motor I've gone thru. I get 8-10 min flights @ WOT with 3.7 to 3.8V left at end of flight. This one has a stock wing and is rigged as a 3 channel. It's fairly highly modified with the entire wing covered with packing tape, has a reinforced battery box (basswood framed) and the main gear off a Eflite J3 Cub with 3" foam tires, so it's fairly heavy, but still performs well. Am replacing the fuse and servos with new right now, haven't had time to finish the rebuild. The wing survived the crash. I use stock struts on this one. I recommend this setup also. I live in the country so I fly this one out of my backyard all the time. The gear makes landing in grass a snap. Anyway, just my humble opinion. Have a good one.

I tried to paste this to the last video, but couldn't figure out how to do in windows movie maker. This is another camera angle of the paratrooper,

Cold crappy day here. Just remembering warmer days.

73F and light breeze here......again.

I loaded up my Stratos Firebird yesterday morning about 7:30 AM but it got pretty breezy very quickly, plus it was in the upper 20's so I headed east about 30 miles to visit a small lake for coffee and fresh air...

Shot the following just for giggles...

Gotta love Texas.
