Post by: Ededge2002 on July 28, 2012, 10:57:26 PM
Who is in?  I plan on being there about 3:00 and would love some company!  Just finished up Rifle #2 and its ready to rip.  Same set up as last one but I replaced both servos.  wouldnt trust using them over.  Cant wait!

Man I wish.. But it's my daughter's birthday party, so I should probably go to that.

Have fun.

I wish too but I'm up in cottage country.

We'll have to get a Sunracer / Rifle formation flight happening soon.

I'm afraid I couldn't make it flying this weekend - I was flying elsewhere!

Yes it was new but old lol. I bought it to keep as a spare last august after just a few flights on the first one. I was hooked. The first one lasted much longer than expected!  That first flight today was the maiden and it trimmed out great. The second well... Not so much. The beast that is the Rifle reared it's ugly head. I fought it, I lost. Not a write off but the damage is all on the motor mount and considering that is all that plane is I'm thinking I will buy another just for the fuse. I have a gift card for $25 and I sold a plane to Colin today plus great hobbies has them on for 98.99  . It's pretty much a no brainer
