Not yet but I would love to go. I used to go in the early years all 3 days. Just loved it.

Maybe if this girl is flying Hubb can put on a demo. June will be here before you know it.

That would be awesome!

Some links on the Seiko's. Recommended 6.0 - 8.4. I'm probably going to start with 2 cell lipo's. and see if that's enough power.

Plus what Roger said about how his run.

Karl,

Thanks for the reply to the balance/weight thing! I use my batteries to bring into balance as well... seems you have it figured out. That motor is heavy...hope it give you what you need! No wonder you are putting the weight that far aft!

Cheers,

Larry

Project Tie the Elevator Halves together.

Just some screws and it's done. 2 hours start to finish. The joint will be fiberglassed together also when we get around to finishing the tail.

Took a photo of my milling vise. Invaluable I tell you.

Boy I tell ya another thing that makes the M12's is the tall stance.

Leg length is directly proportional to the displacement of the "cylinders" up front! LOL
