That's still no reason not to come hang out. If you want to come out I'll be there friday and we can all jump on it and get you going.





Cool. I'm looking forward to seeing them run. That engine looks to be a promising solution for those wanting a little more power on a 50cc plane.
There's more. We are scheduled to have bigger toys for the big boys to at least look at. I doubt we will have them runnig, not enough time,money or airframes..

Great now that I got the new tailwheel on it. Other problem now is my TX crapped out on me. It's life though. Maybe I can make it next year!

Sorry Charles, was trying to make it, but have too much going on, and both my big birds are down. #2 cylinder is pulled off the velox now for a little while. I have a flight in Oklahoma that day also. I was trying my hardest to go. Let me know how it goes!!

CJ just got my EF 110" done, have 5 flights on it. Just found out my headers are to short for the RE2. Mid-range sucks, and hovering all most impossible. But it looks good. Calling DA tomorrow to get right headers. Still have small trimming to do. Did you adjust your thrust line on your yak?

What prop and throttle servo are you running? Can you come out on Friday and we will have a little more time to look at it?

No I set it up the first time with the factory angles. When I rebuilt the motorbox i set it up with 2.5 deg right and 0 up and down. I haven't been able to feel it pulling off a line with that amount of right thrust.

Sorry to hear the Velox is down for a little while. I was looking forward to seeing it fly again. Cool bird. We'll take plenty of pictures for sure.

Wow that's quite a bit off. I'm sure you will tell a difference. How long are the headers you have now?
