FYI For all the local RC Pilots in the bay area, needing a runway strip for your larger scale foamies, and can't quite afford to join a flying club or just can't make it out as often as needed to make a membership a worthwhile bang for the buck, there is a great place close by Menlo park shoreline mainly on Sundays at the following coordinates, feel free, to fly for free....

Thanks for sharing I checked out the link you shared and thinking about adding this to my 80mm FW mirage. I especially like the dual LED setup for 90mm FMS feature, the 3D printed designs look great and simple to setup. Would like to see how it all fits together.
Cool! you should have no issues getting your 80mm mirage setup right away, just send a PM to the owner of the fb page owner: https://www.facebook.com/thelightbur...location=group

WARNING! – WARNING! – WARNING!
This may be old news but if your research for products and supplies turns up a RC supplier called VampowerPro or Urban Products Inc. DO NOT I repeat DO NOT try to buy anything from them, not even a screw because that’s what you’ll get!!! I learned the hard way and though I didn’t lose any money (my CC company reversed charges) I wasted so much time chasing them for information. They don’t take calls; their mailbox is full and don’t return any emails and I just learned this has been going on for 8+ years. My bad for not conducting any due diligence on them. I’ve never seen any company as bad as these dirt bags and I’m surprised PayPal hasn’t shut them down so heed the warning!

stay clear wasted 2 months ordering some specialized batteries for my Devo 12s....only to learn that the package arrived in Washington which never was tracked by any US carrier.
Paypal understood the issue and refunded my money but the time lost was the real loss

More flying this weekend! Need to knock on wood but this is my original bird (purchased as a Kit plus) and she has been getting lots of use over the years! I have had to replace a couple parts due to fatigue but thankfully the plane is still intact! Lost an aileron servo in flight and even had the fin blow off once! Kept it in the air though and didn't kill it! There is a Make over coming soon too that will be unique to all out there. As of the last couple months she has been getting even more flying time! I got more yesterday and will post!Check me out on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/user/gooniac33

Best flights from two weeks ago...
I installed an FMS 12 blade fan with 2000kv motor, Gooniac RC EDF Creations LED Afterburner set up and A3L Gyro installed by my buddy Frank Mokaya, battery is a Turnigy Heavy Duty 6s 60c 5000mah pack push pretty far back. The plane is so much fun! Check out the take offs, touch n goes and landings... they were always good but now with the new Gyro its even better!!

assuming the outer shroud of your edf is 82.8mm
