Looking good Bigboie,glad to see that it is ready to fly again.I am waiting on a few parts that where miss boxed in my torque tube tail on the new build.I will get some pic's posted when it all arrives and looks like something.Is that the California canopy? I just ordered in some more custom canopy's for stock but did not bring that one in.Looks like I should have (nice).By the way -38degF and windy here today so don't feel bad.Ya I worked outside in it all day. Take Care

Thanks for the pictures bigboie.

I agree, that is a great looking canopy!

I noticed that you have SWE blades. If so you may find them pitchy in fast forward and ackward flight compared to many others. When I tred them, |I found that adding flybar weights or using heavier paddles helped a lot in controlling this, but then you will sacrifice some cyclic speed.

Very Nice!
My G20 should be arriving this morning from the Island. I am sooo excited to be getting our house hold goods even if it's a small shipment.

Peter its interesting that you feel the 20 is your friend.. I feel the same way.....You just get attached to the machine...I just love the Zenoah 20 engine...

Your picture is awesome...Good job

I got my G20 yesterday. I've been so busy unpacking and setting things up that the only thing I had time to do was pull it out of the crate and bring it inside the house. The other shipment of house hold goods has my RX, lipo charger, lipo packs and the Rex 600 and 450. That probably wont get delivered until later this week or sometime next week. I forgot how much time and energy went into setting up a house.

Sorry about the crash. Looking at the first picture the smoke seems more like that from a nitro rather then a gasser.

Either your needles were set overly rich or you have a very high oil content. What oil and mix ratio where you using?

[nismo200sx16]

good eye. I dont think mine even smokes that much after idling fore a while and getting loaded up.

[mecha1000]

My wife has the pics of the crash on her phone......I did not want to bring up the subject

32:1 ratio. I was warming the engine and temp was 25 deg F. After it warms up there is not smoke. The needles maybe off I will recheck on the first flight.
