Mike, make a post and ask specifically what you are looking for. I'm sure you'll get what you're after.

thanks for the website..thats a good starting point..

Biff .. im looking for websites w/ "how to's" on the various aerobatic manu's..torque rolls, harriers, blenders,flatspins etc.. something i could print out and take to the field.. also i hope to find a site that gives alot of info for 3d birds like howtos on linkages motor thrust angles cg's and more.. i have a few 3d birds .46,60 and 90 size..to get me somewhat preped for the 50cc Velox II ARF that i just bought from aerotech... i can do some of the above mentioned but i want to be cleaner so i think a how to or an outline would really help... i googled it but w. no luck.. a few sites but nothing really useful..thanks!

Mike you have found the site already. You have just posted on it. The Giants in my opinion is the best site bar none for the aerobatic enthusiast, whether it be 3D or sequence work.

Mike, we have some of the best pilots in the world as members. If there are specific maneuvers you want to know about, how to , tips, tricks etc. Start a post asking about what you want. You will find that you will get some very good information. The other mentioned are a great starting point. What you can find here will just add to them.

Glad to have you here. Make yourself at home.

Hi Mike

The previous posts have headed you in the right direction. The members on this site are some of the best on the planet. We have the last 2 Tucson shoutout champions as members in Frazer Briggs and Mark Leseberg, also other world class pilots like QQ, Andrew Jesky and a bunch of others. As Biff mentioned, just post the information you want and you will get answers.
Hope this helps

Alan

You found the right place Mike! Check out ground the ground school with Leseberg. the Giants crew has it down when it comes to getting real pros for instructional stuff. Blaine Austin's site is also a great resource for how-to. And if your into the scale aerobatics/precision side of things, check out www.mini-iac.com
