    Tim Pastor from RedwingRC shows us how to repair any plane in 3 easy steps!

    That reminds me of a time that was the closest i ever came to getting out of r/c. I was only flying glow and one day i had a almost new os120ax that died in the air. I landed and adjusted the engine and changed glow plug. Took off and same thing happened again. So i went home and cleaned the...

    Today i worked on installing throttle linkage. The manual does not cover alot of installing throttle servo so i put my own mount in from another kit i had. Also i put in ignition module and finished elevator halves. one other note: the pushrods for the elevators seemed just a little short, i...

    50-60cc pau edge 540 build

    So after cleaning up the shop to work its a slow start this morning. I installed main gear and hinged rudder. I really do not like hinging because it can be messy and takes awhile. I forgot to mention there was absolutely no wrinkles in the covering, the first plane i have ever got this way...

    50-60cc pau edge 540 build

    So, I bought another 50cc plane and have always been stuck with one manufacturer. This time i wanted to try a pau edge so I thought i would do a build thread on it. This isnt going to be a thread that I was asked to do so it will be a thread of how I honestly feel about 1: how well its built 2...

    Theres a little more to assembling it like hinging control surfaces but the price reflects that.

    Well i sold both my 100cc planes and trailer. All i have to fly is a couple small planes. Im not sure if i will get a 50cc and continue to fly later on or not. Being as i have a nib 60cc engine chances are i will. Work will have to slow down first. Ill have 68 hours this week so theres no time...
