[68ZooM]

hi all just wanted to share a few pics of my radio controlled planes the first is my pride and joy p51d it has a 90 eltiger engine which pushes it at around 92 mph full throttle (local PD clocked it on radar for me) full retractable gear wingspan of 54 inches



next is my Zero a real fun plane not as fast but very stable its wingspan is 52 inches and has a 105ci 4 stroke motor and also full retracts hope you all enjoy

I will have to try and dig up some pics of my planes... been flying RC since I was 7.. soo.. 24 years.. gah!

Anyway, I primarily fly giant scale aerobatics, and am finishing up a 33% Extra 300L with a DA-100 for go-juice.  I'm planning (if the wife lets me lol) to get the HUGE Ultimate from Hangar9.  I love Ultimates, and that thing is just gorgeous.  I also enjoy rotary wing, though I am not nearly as proficient with it as I am with planks.  Got a Blade CP Pro, and a Raptor 50.  As for electric, JUST started getting into electric planes.. got a box sitting in my living room right now with a Great Planes Edge540 and the rimfire brushless outrunner variable pitch system.. we shall see where that goes..our club performs a very large R/C airshow each year, in which they shut down our local airport for us to fly at!  Flying in this show is a HUGE amount of fun... check our site out... Greater Cincinnati Radio Ccontrol Club   The show is called the flying circus, and we have a HUGE variety of planes that are flown..... check it out!

I never made it much past a sport trainer. The last time I flew my Duraplane, Mother Nature blew it into the door of an old out-house.

Still saving up for the Hobby Lobby/Flying styro P-51B "Shangri-La". They're sold out, but I've found a supplier who has a bunch in stock. Hoping to get one before summer comes.

When you belly land a foamie, make sure your motor is completely stopped before touching down.  I actually turn it off higher up, and stall the aircraft to make the prop slow or stop windmilling, and then glide it in.  Also, if at all possible, try to stop the motor with the prop horizontal... and land in SOFT GRASS.  this should help you with your prop issues
