    Fly a Negative Snap from an Inverted Climb

    fun fun fun! I love seeing these how to maneuvers from Model Airplane News, I wish they'd make a book on this so I could take it to the field. I know IMAC guys can use the aresti book... do they make something like this? I've been teaching the local club members simple sport aerobatic maneuvers...

    Welcome! As a member at a flying site I visited in CA told me when I wanted to get into gassers but was afraid that I wouldn't be able to fly at my field because of it's STOL characteristics.... he simply said "You Will" I must say the bigger birds fly better... it's TRUE. have fun on the site...

    I wouldn't be happy with myself if a plane crashed because of poor equipment... rather it be pilot error CFIT then an uncontrolled path into the pit!

    The I'm NOT going out flying thread.

    I said the AVERAGE shooter cant consistently pull the trigger in rapid succession with a revolver ha ha ha. Good shooting man. I'm sticking with my lil 10mm glock for now. I was fly fishing for dolly varden yesterday by myself and heard a "Crack" about 15odegrees behind me about 40 feet away was...

    Yeah I've heard of the slop at center, but most 3D planes don't fly at center or high speed. I have also heard that most of the slop goes away after they warm up (gear lash). No such thing as a free lunch with cheap servos... unless you are @49dimes ;). I cant speak too much since I have a set...

    Need some advice on a new 30cc 3D plane.

    Dude! An AJ ARS!?!? I didn't see it for sale on the website yet! how much was the ARF? Way cool man

    The I'm NOT going out flying thread.

    Thats why I went with an 10mm Auto glock. I can shoot 15rounds (+1) fairly accurately in rapid succession with alternating loads.... count to fifteen... it takes a while, plus no safety. Where as a high powered revolver, the ordinary man cannot keep on target with multiple shots and really have...

    Need some advice on a new 30cc 3D plane.

    Pretty sure that will be my next plane (50cc) honestly not that much bigger and I am basically putting 50cc gear in my 35cc airframes... however, you would save a few hundred using a smaller engine and lighter servos... so not exactly the same buck. The 35cc birds fly pretty good though, and are...

    The I'm NOT going out flying thread.

    nice, I picked up a G20SF 10mm for a woods gun. Getting better every time I take it to the range. As long as I can hit a brown bear head at 50ft I should be OK.... I think/hope :concern:

    Need some advice on a new 30cc 3D plane.

    So true! I have a little foam plane I need to put it in... I honestly hope that it goes Tango Uniform. Ironically it would make me feel great if it plummeted into a tree... at least I would know! Have you narrowed down a 30cc plane yet?
