I race almost every weekend, fly during the week if the weather is better then raining.

Diversity can either kill you (run too many classes and you know what I am talking about) or can bring new life to something old...

Has anybody used that new Spektrum DX-7 radio? I have, it rocks. Rock stable connection, zero gliching problems (can be very very very bad with airplanes and helicoptors ) looking for the smaller 6100 receiver, the 7000 is a little bit tight to squeeze into my Stryker-F27C brushless PLANE.



Any body know any local hobbyshops with losi 40wt shock oil in stock?

(how you gonna classify this post ? )

Dont understand why the moderators have not moved the heli and plane threads to their own forum.

And this goes for any other non related RC car racing thread.

Now watch the ones corrupting the forum bitch.

And who are you? oh wait i dont really care, if you dont like it do read it its as simple as that or go back to kindergarden, either way i nor most of us here dont really give a S#*T what u think.

Warning: Dont piss in my cheerios!

I'd love to watch you fly the Stryker!
Try TRCR for the shock oil. I know that SIR only has the AE brand.

Driveshaft, how about your thread title being..."Complain about something I'm not into."
Dude the name of the website is "RC" tech, get your head out and quit complaining, whiner!

I make great burgers and when I envite company for burgers they get burgers not hot dogs.



So if you don't like something it should be deteted?

Quite contraire, where exactly does it say on this forum only threads that promote RC as a whole can be posted friend? Get your head out.



I was trying to protect the interest of the RC Racers forum jimmy, The question is, what do aircraft threads have to do with racing under the NW racers forum Stien?
Idiot!

Just a little tip: After upgrading the stock radio, do a MUCH better job of checking out the control surfaces then I did. Painting those foam bodies sucks!

With only two, how hard could it be? I got about 6 second of flight before I could not handle the left is right, right is left problem I created!
Very funny, glad I didn't spend a ton of time building it. After all the repairs, I was in about $35 in parts/materials to get back in the air. The beauty of the Stryker finally paid off!

Funny you should say that. I was videotaping a guy out at the field today flying his beautiful bi-plane as he discovered the same thing right after take-off. I guess it pays off checking that you've got the right model on the screen of your remote. He's probably out atleast $800 in repairs. Ripped both wings to shred and destroyed his 7 cylinder rotary 4 stroke engine.

Don't want to read about air based RC?

Don't read the thread.

Simple as that

Oh man, I agree with Anthony ?

I love the response this guy got from this thread. But seriously you guys, helicopters are stupid and everyone thats not a moron knows that . So please anyone that flies helicopters please move all your dumb conversations to somewhere that I dont have to see one thread about them.

Who wants to go start a heli thread in the On-road racers forum ?
