    ESC recommendations?

    Hey guys, does anyone have any good recommendations for 30 amp ESC that can take 2-3s lipos and that have a steady current. Also not too expensive. They really need to have a steady current because if they don't my servos twitch. Thanks

    Watching through some of the older episodes I found this - Is there scope for flitetest to have a build episode something along the same lines. Maybe even get Peter on board as a guest for the show.

    Newbie, First plane assistance

    Hi guys, I am not new to the RC genre and I have plenty of experience with ESC, Tx/Rx etc. I even built my own plane that didn't go too well (Crashed). However, I now want to buy a proper first plane, preferably from HobbyKing. Something for under a $60-100, ARF is fine. Please suggest some...

    What's YOUR highest altitude??

    Hey all! Just wanted to know, what was you highest altitude you've achieved with your rc model? I don't have any pics or videos, but I've flown my bixler LOS until it was a speck in the sky. I'm guessing it was a thousand feet or so. Feel free to brag and post pictures and videos!:D

    Hello every one and Josh and Josh. i know you guys already did a challenge on "making" a RC plane on a budget, how about instead of creating a plane from your mine, make a plane by just getting the parts?
