Like the build a lot, Chris. Nice work!

That's a sad tale. Some great flying on view by the way. If it's not councils reallocating land it will be a mass of solar panels in our rural environment. 😒

As a matter of caution I have replaced all my Turnigy RX 2S 3600 mAh packs as they are quite old and look suspiciously as they are about to down the puffy route. Furthermore, I wasn't happy with some of the telemetry data relating to the RX packs given I am using all digital servos. I chose some Optipower packs and truth to tell there wasn't a lot of choice of packs with that capacity. The only issue I have now is that I need to buy an MPX (male) charging lead ........ Better safe than sorry though.

My Mac (OS sequoia) has an M1 chip presumably that's the processor, so unlikely to work? Excuse my ignorance.

One star rating doesn't inspire confidence on the Aerofly 10 sadly.

Stupid question here. Based in the UK as I am, what RID would be compatible with Futaba gear and is it freely available, as it seems to be for Spekrum?

Hear, hear !! wish I could get out that much Leccy ☹️

Such dedication LF! Glad got some stick time in 👍

A bit of increasing jeopardy on this morning's session. The first one for a couple or three weeks due do working in school so I was gasping to get out from the cabin fever mode. Crops growing nicely (not sure might be barley) with a gentle wind down the strip. I was not sure of the wisdom of taking out the biggest of my squadron given I am a bit ring rusty. Hey Ho! I decided to get on with it. The one thing I had overlooked with the Edge is her tendency to bite if I don't keep the throttle open a 1/3 on finals. I woke up to that pretty quickly as she decided to impersonate an excited porpoise. I did a WOT and went round again. Bit of a basic error on my part 😝. Never mind four flights later I was almost back up to speed on the technique levels. Nice morning around though. 😀

Lovely golden retrievers, David. The model looks fantastic too!

I like your 4 column table idea, Peter. I going to adopt that straight away! I do check the pre-flight and post flight voltages and record them, although the IR readings are done less frequently. 😔

Wow! I wouldn't be too keen to come in to land just over those trees with a 2 metre job let alone that size of aircraft. Great video, but I dread to think of how much investment went into it.

Not on my desk top either, Ron Ahhh...... Got it to work now by refreshing the forum page!

Lost of interesting recent posts on this thread for the last few days now we are getting some decent weather 😀😎 No wind today so I dust off my sbach 342 the last time for which I flew was way back in February on a less than ideal day. Lovely sunny welcome at the field so off to work. It has only been 6 days since I last cut the field and those darn dandelions are out in force already. That's tomorrow's job sorted out. Anyway flying was enjoyable, although because she doesn't get many outings I did notice today a tendency to veer very slightly to the left into wind (from behind) which is corrected with a bit of rudder. I do wonder if a some side thrust needs to be added as my bigger scale planes have it built in. This early Goldwing kit doesn't possess any built in. A bit more experimenting needs to be undertaken I think. Despite this she is easy to fly and does some nice freestyle aeros.

Yup, been there, done that and wear the tee shirt ☹️. Still it keeps my repairing skills up to scratch!
