Default Re: Giants From Down Under

Went out flying with Mike and Bronte today, Mike maidened his comp ARF Extra 330 and H9 Ultimate bipe. Both went well, had to put this little vid of the Red aero pilot, taking the *iss. Mikes wife did a great job of the pilot and panel, wish I could get my other half interested enough to do some work on my planes.

One little detail problem, IMEC

id cut the last 10mm-15mm of them DL can outlets if they stick out enough, you may get a bit more go, they are a bit rounded off inside at ends from what ive seen.
Thanks for the tip TD. You're right, there is a slight lip on the can exits which I'll grind out or just cut 'em off.
I'll keep using the yak for IMAC so this will just be a weekend huck & plane (hopefully without the ) for me to learn a bit of 3D on something other than a foamie. Plus it'll give the yak a spell before it clocks up a million miles.
I'll post more pics before the maiden this weekend.

The HFP-20 programmer turned up today and brought the 7955's back to life. Feral's HFP-10 had firmware V1.02 and the servos are new. Not sure why others could use the old programmer and I couldn't but the new one does the trick.
