LiPo setting on JetCat ECU
Does anyone know where the cutoff is for LiPo's on JetCat ECU's? From the manual Nicd/NiMH low batt at 1.1V per cell and Empty Bat at 1 V per cell. On my P200 I'm getting low batt at 3.8V per cell, which is a little TOO conservative for my tastes. Raf

RE: Hows Global Jet Club plane's quality?
Mike Lin is a stand up guy and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him. Especially since he "upgrades" alot of the jet legend jets which have the most outstanding elevator mechanism on the market. Not even BVM has done better. And I love BVM stuff. Raf

RE: Global Jet Racks - New Release
[quote]ORIGINAL: ddennison So I made one out of wood and it works great. I made more of a platform on each level so the planes could rest with gear up as well and not drip on the plane below. Dave [/quote] Mike, the first time I saw one at Tam's I had to have one, so there are people out there that want them. I also paid something in the $800 dollar range. If they could be in the $200-300 range, I do think you couldn't keep them in stock. How about making them kinda how IKEA would, make us do some of the building. That might make it cheaper on your end. My suggestions: 1. Like Dave said above, making a way so that the jets can sit on their fuse would be nice, especially if the wingspan is so big that the wings have to be taken off the model 2. Make the rail that the mains sit on wide enought so that some "wide" stanced jets can go on them like a Bandit, Ultra bandit or even an F-4 phantom. I put soft surf racks on the ends of my rack so I could rest the jets on the rack with the gear tucked up. I don't have any pics right now, I'll see if I can take some when I get home. Raf

RE: Bandit ARF CG w/P-80 & large hopper?
Don't forget that you will need all your elevator throw and when landing remember to keep the nose down to the runway and then ease off the throttle and flare, this way you will not run out of elevator. I fly my BARF with a Titan SE and now have my c/g 3/4" behind what BV recommends and it's still a touch nose heavy. Your p-80 should be plenty. Raf
