This post is a little later than I’d hoped, but to bring folks up to speed…The 67” Skywing Edge 540 I mentioned is just about ready for a maiden flight. As for the DR10M, the chassis is as complete as I can get it, and it will run now. However, mounting the body to the chassis has not happened...

This post is a little later than I was hoping, but I got a Maclan sensor wire ordered and installed in the car - problem solved! The throttle calibrated accordingly, and went thru the full startup tone sequence as it should. I did turn the power down overall until I get more used to the car. I...

RandyDSok - I appreciate your reply, thank you! I did some more research, and I believe I found my own oversight. Apparently the motor requires a sensor wire to be run between itself and the esc. With the way I have things laid out in / on the chassis I did not notice the ports. I also do not...

I’ve been getting ready to try out a new build - DR10M with a Maclan DRK 6600kv motor (4-pole / 3.5 Turn) and 160A DRK ESC. I opted to put a 4 channel airplane receiver in it. So the throttle is setup to run on the elevator channel (mode 2 airplane transmitter), and the steering is running on...

This is too cool! Very impressive collection, and the gas pump looks great! Very nice work - thanks for sharing!

Welcome to the forum exctmt!!! As D.O.G. mentioned, you’re never too old for R/C. It’s cool to see you’re building a kit too…not many people are going that route these days, but you’ll gain a lot of experience from it. If you have any questions about any of your projects, receiver questions...

D.O.G. - I definitely want to start making videos with the car and my airplanes too, when the time comes! The car is just about ready for paint, but with flying season coming up - I’ve also been working on another airplane. My most recent project has been a 67” Skywing Edge 540 in green /...

DR10M photo update…The clear body is a BittyDesign ZL21 Camaro waiting for paint. Motor: Maclan DRK 4-pole 6600kv. ESC: Maclan DRK 160 with fan and external BEC. Battery: Maclan 2S-HV Lipo 8800Mah with 8mm direct plugs / bullet connectors. The little module on the front bumper / skid plate is a...

D.O.G - Thank you very much! The DR10M chassis is as complete as I can get it for now. The electronics are laid-out in place (except for the steering servo and receiver). So I decided to get a jump-start on cutting the body and other little parts. Unfortunately though, I try to paint outdoors...

Today was productive, didn’t get as far as I was hoping - but the DR10M is almost done…Chassis is nearly finished, shocks all filled, and wheels / tires are mounted! Sorry for the shadow in the pictures, but here is todays progress:

Thanks D.O.G.! I had some more free time tonight to work on the DR10M, only to realize some of the parts orientation was backwards / reversed. After getting things straightened out and re-secure, it was time to move forward… I got most of the front end put together, getting close to mounting...

Here are pictures of the DR10M build so far…

Well, as of today, the build thread continues. I decided to try something new for 2023 and bought into the R/C no-prep racing side of the hobby…Ordered a Team Associated DR10M. As for the build, it’s coming together nicely with only one complaint / concern. I was putting in a steering...

That’s awesome Tony!!! I’ve been flying for years off and on, but this year wanted to try something new. After doing some digging, the more I read about it the more interested I am. The technology nowadays is quite impressive. Granted, I have a lot to learn…I’m hoping to be able to run the car...

Welcome to the forum raymond :welcome1:!

Welcome to the forum revo52 :welcome1:!

Well I finally took the plunge and bought into the rc car side of the hobby. After doing some research, finding some parts that should work together (just basics - no electronics yet), and considering many different options…I ordered a Team Associated DR10M kit. 1/10 scale drag car. I’m looking...

Today was another adventure out at the flying field...Got the Yak-54 flown about 12 times so far. The engine in it is a RCGF Stinger 20-RE (20cc gas) and still needs some more time to be fully broken in, but its getting there. Finally got to test the flap/elevator mix on the Carbon Cub this...

This post is a little late, but life has been busy…Anyways over the last 2-3 days I got my radio software updated, re-bound some airplanes, and learned how to mix the elevator and flaps on the carbon cub. I’ve been thru the process before, but with the new update, some screens looked different...
