    @Terryscustom What are your thoughts on my little 21ccT RCGF engine issue? Maybe you can sense my problem lol

    Another new DX-18 !!

    I have the T8FG as well, been looking at the Jeti DS-16.... I kinda feel a disconnect with Futaba lately. They are pressing their high end Tx's lost support of the T8FG, no updates, or anything exciting to look forward to. maybe that's just me trying to sweeten the pot on a jeti...

    Making a few Changes

    I think the admin is doing a great job listening to us and supporting the site. I'd just hate to see the main purpose of having an online community fade away due to overwhelming ads (unfortunately MAN admin posts are not helping awaken/spike interest in the crowd in my opinion). I'd like to see...

    Cool Fromeco, above and beyond!

    Right, I guess I meant to say for an onboard Rx not a starter lol

    Cool Fromeco, above and beyond!

    Well 7.4v LION is higher than the 6.6V A123 or am I missing what they look like under a load? A123's are known to loose voltage under current spikes or something like that for the hungry models out there.

    Making a few Changes

    Couple Thoughts here: The MAN posts seem to be flooding the recent posts on the right column, is it possible to have them just in the middle? I like reading them, but its been harder for me to see what people have posting as a quick reference on the right column. It's my first "go-to" spot and...

    Cool Fromeco, above and beyond!

    I haven't used Fromeco, but always have had them as my next choice. A123's have their limits, and LiPo's are not the best for the AK cold weather, so LION would be a good HV option over the A123 for me...

    Something New Is Coming.

    AJ Aircraft just announced a 104" 120cc ARS300 and a 67" ARS300 today at the 2017 Toledo Show along with there very own electric motors! Funny since about a year ago I wished they made a 60" version ha ha

    Curious how you linked the two Futaba Rx's - Pretty neat

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    well... I do that just in time to mess it up again! I keep dreaming that a 93" Reflex Laser will be on my bench... just counting my fun tickets and making lots of delicious dinners for my lovely wife :concern:

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    What about using a power expander? Like the new Booma AR Smart Bus or a Powerbox Pro from Redwing? Been thinking about that myself

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I have never heard of such a design! Pretty neat! Probably a little late, but a short build thread on this plane could be fun to tune in on.

    H9 15cc Carbon Cub

    The larger/heavier prop lets the RCGF 21cc idle great. I tried APC 17x4W, 16X4W, 16X6, and the previous wood 16X8. I have no numbers but after doing some engine runs I cannot seem to get this engine from Idle to WOT without dying, unless I slowly transition. Punch it, and it dies. Adjusted the...
