I was trying to loop my plane between power lines and I missed. Got the prop blade wedged between strands of wire. It hung there overnight and the wind got it down the next day.

Ha Ha, Been there..... The carbon cub is gread...Looks good on float's too. I wouldn't suggest the floats. The darn thing goes into a Knife edge and won't pull out... I hit the roof of the house...
I'll try to get some pic's this weekend, If I remember... I alway's forget about this thread...

Gotta see if I can post all the pic's again.... People have been wanting me to post more....

AAAAAH BISCUIT..... I'll try again later.... I found all the lost pics in a folder on the laptop. Don't know how to post them all here again...

Umx carbon cub ss?

It's a good plane. Lot's of power. Will also tow the UMX glider. It doesn't need flaps at all... I had full flaps set and first flight almost somersaulted in for a landing...
Best thing to do is get the BNF (Bind and Fly) and get your own radio (2.4 GHZ)

I love using rc when I first startd I used thos little airhog helis batteir powered ones I still have thos don't think they come with names though one was a emergency heli and other was a sport heli I always used those then I got a monster truck it would be great for out side now me and my dad are planning to get a fueled rc car thos things go fast I'm planning on getting a rc plane too is there anything you guys would recommend for a first purchase of a plane?

Flyzone Micro Se5a. I just ordered one a couple of weeks ago for my brother n law. $50 on Tower Hobbies website. Make sure you get the RTF (RTR) version. BNF is for people that already have a radio (transmitter)

New small project





Repaired, Yes It had flying issues.... Left aileron blew off in flight...was loud...I had control for a bit but just couldn't hold it... ended up snapping the fuselage in half gear ripped off blahdey blahdey blah.... look at the six million dollar man video. You'll get the idea.... Works great now....

Nothing to do with RC but this got me thinking, how in the heck does that bucket work?

Wing struts threaded (rigged), tensioned. Waiting for glue to dry. Will have to balance and fly today....

This has been in a Box for about 10 years. I decided it would be a good platform for the GoPro. I painted it up, assembled and now need's motor, receiver, speed control and GoPro mount... Trying to get it ready for the fall leaves.....

Are you guys all airplains or do rc cars allowed

Rc everything Jason....
I'm more into plane's... I have a few car's, Truck's....

I have a tmax , two rock crawlers and a 4 wd buggy. I run the rock crawlers the most.

I don't have any RC truck's that nice. It mainly sit's on the shelf...LOL....Mostly plane's for me. The gassers are in the garage...

Hey Dent,

You probably know this, but the GoPro field of view will include that front cowling. I imagine most of the bottom half of the view will be the plane itself. Moving it up even just another inch or two will help, if the GoPro can still be secured.

Yea, I have to mess around with some kind of mount Manfred. I just set it there for the Photo.. I've tested that camera on a couple of gasser planes and it's one of the best camera's I've owned for the aerial photo's and movies. The HD is awsome. I took the camera to Ocean City Maryland and it was the camera of choice on the beach and in the water.....

I ordered a Blade 350QX Quadcoptor with an anti vibration mount for the GoPro I can't wait for that to arrive.

BH, You were into cars weren't you? Jason Has some neat stuff also....
A few people have posted some pic's of car's and truck's on here...
Thank You BH.

Nice - looks like a neat platform

Here is a shot of a Ultra Drifter similar to one that I am getting - the shot comes from a thread in RCGroups - the plane has been fitted with camera for FPV plus ArkBird OSD with RTH - thread is "FPV on Drifter Ultralight" - incredible what the guy has done.

I plan on getting into FPV IQQI. I finally found a setup that may work with my glasses with a set of goggles. FatShark FPV. I'll have to check that site out....
Here's the Blade 350QX

Yes dent I'm staying on the ground for awhile lol. Its a lot cheaper. I'm running a slayer pro 4x4 sc truck with the 3.3 motor. Traxxas has come alone way in the last 10 years. I love the 2.4ghz radio on this thing.

I've been flying with 2.4 for a bit. The response is unbelieveable, smooth and crisp. You guy's have me thinking about a Rock crawler now.....Mrs Dent's going to be sooo happy.....

My son strapped his cell phone to his revo and we went a few laps. He actually made a nice video of our race. I will see if he can post it. He plays dogfight also goes by bwfoust. I posted this before but its the only image I can find on my memory card

Poly makes it look stable and slow.
Check web sites for S40 bullet cams and let me know what you think.
