You guys doing lights....which controller/light kit are you using and what lenses? I'm guessing T-45 stuff will be good?

Thanks
Four flights yesterday with the Bullpups installed. My magnets seem very strong and I had no issues at all.Pat

Tom- sorry we missed you at TORKS! I flew three more times today at my home field with the Bullpups, no issue at all with the magnets. And I didn't notice anything different as far as how it flies.
Everyone - with the flaps down for landing (and a mild wind down the runway), the Scooter just flies slower and slower until it is hardly moving. I'm still experimenting with it but I haven't seen a hint of a stall when I'm floating down the runway with the nose up right before touchdown. What an amazing little plane!Marc flies FW & FL: AL37, MiG-29, T45,F4, A4, A10, F104 70 and 90, P38, Dauntless SBD, Corsair, B17, B24, B26 & P61, Lipp.P19, ME262, Komets, Vampire, SeaVixen, FMS Tigercat, FOX Glider & Radian XL.

Welcome to the Squawk. Thanks. I should have my MK-81's tomorrow and I ordered an F-16 ordnance set to work over so I can get a centerline tank, the LAU-10/A's and multiple bomb rails. I plan to eventually add lights, a nose gear door and possibly main gear doors.

For sme reason the nose wheel is jittering from side to side. Should it be connected to the blue box or straight to the receiver? i have it on the blue box but the jittering stops when it is connected to the receiver although then the nosewheel will not steerCurrently Fly: Durafly Spitfire MkVb, Eflite P47 1100mm, Parkzone FW190A-8, Parkzone SE5a, Dynam Tiger Moth, Eleven Hobby Bearcat, Parkzone Mosquito MKVI, Durafly Tundra
Unflyable: Durafly Sea Vixen, Parkzone T28 (In temporary storage in tree)
Retired: Hobbyzone Delta Ray 'Frankenplane'
Wanted: Freewing A4

I added a movable tail hook for my plane. Inside the foam engine cover there is a large area perfect for putting a servo to move the hook up and down for demo fly bys and ground demos. I got two flights on my A-4 yesterday with the maiden. The second flight we deployed the tail hook for a fly by and it looked great! I have two tiny rare earth magnets at the base of the hook to keep in in place when not being deployed.2 Photos
