Hello folks,

Thanks for the warm welcome today and I am super excited to be part of this great club.

See you at the field soon and happy flying...in the sky and on the ground!

Cheers,

aaaaaarrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhhh........THE MOTOR IS STILL BREAKING IN!!!
and the hat is not on backwards....(it cost me $24 but I got a free case of beer with it).
Prop is not on backwards (see note above about motor breaking in)
Oh speaking of breaking...that motor had a wrist pin bearing failure and is now on it's way back to the factory!!  So a "smidge" slower than Paul with a new motor (complete with bad bearing) AND a smaller prop (22x8 vs 22x10).

Besides.....it's not the speed guys, you have it all wrong, it's the graceful flying characteristics of the Green Dragon!!

Nicely  put there Mr. Green Dragon.
Don't know what is going on with these Funny looking hats though.
Two more guys had them on yesterday at the field. Must be a new trend.

I have to agree.
It's about the quality of flying not, the speed.

Gotta like the plane.  It's got everything it takes; one seat, one engine, and guns.  And; I see its even got a pilot.

Welcome to the club Asif.

Thanks!!!

One question that may be an obvious and silly one ( and possibly this is not the place to ask it) --

If my elec motor calls for a 30C batt and I use a 50C , that's OK, right? -- as long as it's more not less?

Thanks!!!

Asif

Yes, it is Asif.  Just ensure the cell count is correct.  Ie. If the original was a three cell, the new one should be a three cell.
