OK.... I have had lots of time to spend with the X3L, and I really do like the way it flies. It`s rock solid in the air, and very predictable...
20 minutes out of an electric 700? You might get close if you run it on 6s with a 20,000mAh+ battery, and low head sped, but I think that`s a bit...
I got X3L test hovered today, and everything is good to go. Tomorrow, I`m going to go put some flights on it and get it tuned up.
I just got the build thread for the X3L posted up on my website. :eek: http://www.geenatucker.com/blog.php

I got these modular parallel board sets from Progressive. They worked out great, and the nice part is, they do not have to be assembled like they...
Last week, I had a couple of parallel boards, and some cables delivered from Progressive RC. Right now, I have a few bottles of Dry Fluids heli...
I brought this up to a planker at our club not long ago. He was whining about helicopters being "dangerous" and that they scare him. So I quoted...
I soooo wish I could. It would be a lot of fun to meet you guys in person, and fly with you all.

Yours looks great too, and I LOVE those fan covers. Our setups are very similar, except I didn`t go with a bump control. After seeing one of my...
Thank you @smakmeharder. I`m really happy with how it turned out. The leads are soldered into those little nubbins sticking up from the deck, and...
