    CP Pro twin tail rotor help

    1. Remove tail prop and unplug **MAIN** motor from the 4-in-1 unit. 2. Turn on TX, set the left trim to center, and plug in the battery. 3. Look at the 4-in-1 unit from the left ("driver's") side. You will see two trim pots (check your manual for pictures.) 4. The rearmost one is the...

    Bad Day at the Office?

    This is probably very old, but always good for a laugh. Happy Holidays everyone . . . . . http://glumbert.com/wii/view.php?name=baddayoffice I love the paper airplane comeback best. :D

    E-flite CP+ vs. Heli-max AXE CP

    Here's some input on the Blade CP. As easily as you get impatient. :D With the slightest touch on just about anything, they will disintegrate. Yes, they are balsa, and break easily. The first inclination is to get better blades, such as plasti-blades or carbon fiber - do not do this, for two...

    Another reason to quit smoking.

    And there it is, the Hymn of Litigation, the mantra of the "I Know My Rights" group. Toward the end of that video they mention she's not cashing the $26 check and is in communication with her lawyer. Hope she's got Jackie Chiles. I'd say just about most of this country needs a good kick in...

    Prostitutes sew lips together in protest

    LOL . . . I'd like to see some video of this, it presents a little bit of a problem in implementation. Edit: did anyone look at the pictures there? <SHUDDER> I think I'd rather poke it in a Waring Blender! And what's up with "Sex Workers?" What, we have to be politically correct with...

    George Carlins Bad American

    First time I heard this is it was attributed to Ted Nugent. It's changed a bit though, interesting edits! Link

    RC Dragonfly?

    Crikey, I think they've done it. Washington Post Story I got tired of waiting for the video to load though. Maybe the spooks confiscated it (read that, G-men.)

    Why does life have to be so tough sometimes?

    godale the short story: you are doing the right thing, in spite of the difficulty, and knowing it's right should help. The longer story: when my daughter was 8 she got this cat, it bonded with her and was her companion. Slept on her bed, always her buddy, you know the deal. When my...

    Bump Start set up.....

    Aside from the other excellent advice here, one thing I didn't see mentioned is to make absolutely sure the flywheel does not touch the chassis, even a little bit. It's easy to overlook and is the most common cause of "my starter box sucks." If it touches the chassis at all it will stall the...

    Does anybody else deal with this?

    I guess I'll chime in here, being old, married, not that you are old . . . well anyway . . . . I'm more fortunate than most, when I got my first nitro, the wife's first question was "can I have one?" She got hers soon after and it's something we actually do together. When we have time...

    Plastic or Carbon Fiber main rotors

    When you go to replace the boom, you may have some difficulty in getting it out of the frame. A heat gun and liberal amounts of debonder helps. I just replace the frame *once* and use just a DOT of CA. When you reassemble be sure to do this mod at the rear landing gear. As for blades - you...

    Plastic or Carbon Fiber main rotors

    <snicker> Sometimes ya' need ta' see it for yourself. :D I have seen the results of a big heli and CF gone bad - there's some pics floating around the 'net of a guy in AU who had his scalp peeled off. But he was back flying the next day, stitches and all . . . so it's all good.

    What would you do?

    Nail on the head. There's not a single one of you guys that hasn't done the same, or worse, at this kid's age, admit it. Is it really any different because it'syour daughter? What about any of you with sons? Don't you just point them at the door and say "go get 'em boy?" What if that were...

    Post your dumbest/funniest spellcheck mistakes

    One of my first jobs was at a college publications office, back in thedays when type had to be output on RC paper and pasted up - no computer composition. One of the advertisers for a play program was "Puck's Doughnuts." I managed to catch the typo, Puck's Dognuts.

    Upgrades for a Blade Cp Pro

    Tarant hit on the head with two items - twin tail motors and good 1200-1300 mah 3S pack. These are the two most important things you can get on board to make it easier to fly. The twin tails will give you more tail authority and make it far easier to trim it out for smooth hovering and...

    Unhappy with this country ???

    Though I totally agree with the sentiment voiced in that "essay," I gotta say . . . s'nope. The original author is not Jay Leno. Jay Leno is another well groomed Hollywood product, although I like the personna and LOVE his cars, there is no way on Earth he would risk his career by releasing...

    Anyone try IE-7 yet ?

    I have to use all browsers in web development. IE 7 is a major step up in development in that it's now standards compliant, meaning you don't have to do "special hacks" to get it to work with CSS standards. The really bad thing is with all the FireFox-like stuff they've added, they still...

    Easy Shock Sock!

    Balloons are good, but in the long run horse wrap is good too. It actually traps dirt because of it's stickiness. Low Bucks Shock Socks non-commercial link :D

    art buffs unite *reward* lol

    Nah, I haven't seen everything, I just think I have. Only thing that comes to mind is John Pitre, and I'm sure that's not it. I'm sure you asked your sister who the artist was?

    Paris back behind bars!

    I don't know why she's so upset. There will be a strip search, she'll be photographed, new clothes, group showering and rough sex - pretty much like any date?
