Propellar recomendation for a 20cc gas motor (sport flying)
i have a seagull models decathlon 1.20 with a dle20cc. I currently have a carbon 16x8 prop for break in as recommended. I would like to have the most power possible not for 3d but general sport flying. I hear the 17x6 is the best for power is this correct?

RE: Airfield Stuka 1400mm
i just bought an airfielf cessna 182 same wingspan and i was impressed on the build, only things i had a problem were 1. the back fuselage came broken while being shipped i guess( i glued it no problem) 2. one of the main wheels were warped and the plane bounces while rolling 3. the set screw for the nose gear is cheap and the aluminum strut gets stripped before i can even tighten it. besides those 3 issues the plane is very impressive for a foamy. Tell us how the stuka arrives and what problems you encounteres ( if any).

Eflite t-34 mentor canopy fly off during flight
i have been flying my mentor for a while and never had this canopy situation until yesterday my canopy flew right off while doing a vertical pull. I see other people have this issue with the magnets not centered correctly from factory. Now i am stuck with a cracked canopy and have a new one placed on backorder. Does anyone know of anyone else that this happened to and what can be done to prevent this with my new canopy? (without using tape)[:-]

GENS Ace lipo battery
i finally received my 3300 4s gens ace lipo and the cells are all screwed up, first of all the packs voltage was 15.12 which from past experience is really low, i have 2 IMAX B6 chargers and the first charge i did the cells read:4.19 4.17 4.19 4.18, this was strange to me but i figured its a new battery so ill cycle it maybe it will straighten out. I discharged it and charged it up again at 3.0 amps, it read this time 4.20 4.18 4.17 4.18, this to me is garbage because even the turnigy batteries i have ordered balance out correctly from day 1, Anyone have any of their own feedback about their experience with Gens Ace lipo packs?

RE: turnigy or gen ace li-po batteries
i will definately find out , considering my 3000 4s turnigy pack is a 20-30c burst and the GEN pack is a 3300 25-50c burst just with the extra 300ma already there is more voltage and more discharge rate so i do expect the GEN pack to out perform the turnigy.

RE: is it necessary to remove battery pack out of transmitter??
It's not necessarily a leak it just looks darker in one corner than the other, maybe it came that way and I never noticed it. I keep my transmitter in my aluminium case in my home at 73 degree temperature throughout the day this should be fine right?

is it necessary to remove battery pack out of transmitter??
i ask this question because i once heard at a club that when not flying take the battery out the transmitter? i have a nimh pack that is 9 months old i always leave it in my radio. I noticed it has like a damp (wet looking part) on the bottom cardboard looking end, i wanted to know if it leaks with heat or for not removing it from transmitter?
