    FBL Gyro MSH Brain-Ikon Rescue Sneak Peak

    Micro Official Rc-Help Trex 150 Thread

    Oh yeah, got away from me! Joined the "let's see if we can hit that house" club. Had to replace main shaft and feathering shaft. I think I'll fly it in a bigger open space next time. I'll get someone to shoot a video next time.

    Micro Official Rc-Help Trex 150 Thread

    Man! This 150 is like a hummingbird on Crack! Being used to my 700's, this thing is wild! It is going to take some time to tame this little beast.

    Scale T-Rex 700 finally clothed

    Sorry for the late reply guys. I love the FunKey fuselage. Fit and finish is good. My Jet Ranger is based on a local heli that operates from Rand Airport just outside of Johannesburg. I swopped the main rotor direction to CCW and moved the tail rotor to the left hand side. I had to remount the...

    Micro Official Rc-Help Trex 150 Thread

    Well, I pulled the trigger on a new Rex 150 yeaterday! I wil hopefully have it in my grubby little paws on Monday. It is the Combo kit in the plastic carry case. While I was at it, I got a whole lot of spares as well, just in case I fly into the side of my house!! (:hdbng: - Tony?? LOL! )...

    FBL Gyro Best Flybarless Gyro

    I can add the EZNOV Neuron to the list as well. VERY small unit and features a rescue mode with collective pitch. Awesome unit!

    And to make it even cooler, I see that you have an Ikon and Bluetooth module on there. You're gonna love the way the 550 flies. I'll never go back to a small heli again. Remember the video of the maiden though.

    Spektrum Spektrum DX18

    I had my first flight with my new DX18 over the weekend. All I can say is......niiiice!! The feel is different to the DX8. It is perfectly balanced and the whole tx is thinner than my DX8. I also found it easier to get to the switches. I am not a thumb flyer but a pinch flyer, so having switches...

    Spektrum Spektrum DX18

    I am expecting my new DX18 in a couple of days. My LHS ran a massive special on them, so it was pretty hard to pass by. It is the Gen 1 TX, so no voice commands, but hey, at 50% off, who cares? :biggrin1: I now have to set up my helis and my planes again because I believe you can't just...

    Yeah, only in South Africa. We are......... weird here. LOL!

    Thought it would never happen to me:

    I agree. I for one don't trust the e-flite anymore. I've had good luck with the Castles so I bought a new Talon 90 today. Let's hold thumbs this one doesn't go up in smoke.

    Thought it would never happen to me:

    Ouch!! Not nice at all. I'll crap myself if the ICE2 in my Trex 700 does that. I've now fitted a cooling fan to it, just in case. Look what happened to my E-Flite 80A ESC in my Pilatus PC 21 last weekend. ESC and OS motor is toast! I am thankful that I did not use the bec in the ESC. Would...

    My favorite 2 babies

    Thanks guys, it is a sweet flying plane. The field we fly on is a polo field. We can only fly electric there, but that's okay. Who wants to dirty their aircraft with an oilslick anyway.

    JR Pulled a big trigger today

    I am not too fussed about the DMSS. I am keeping my DX8 for all of my foamies. I am not going to buy a whole lot of receivers to replace my DSMX stuff.

    JR Pulled a big trigger today

    It's a good thing I am not married! Pulled the trigger on a new JR XG14 today. It was a toss-up between a DX9 and the JR, but the JR won the toss because of the additional channels. I was also eyeing the DX18, but the price was out of my range. I am going to use the X-Bus feature on my 700...
