Hi Everyone,
I just came across the information I have on PZL-104 plans and wanted to
post the information here. There are a couple of places that offer giant
scale plans and one or two that have .90 sized or free flight plans.

Hi All,
Just a quick not to say that I've uploaded some pictures of our Plane Packs
onto our website. The pictures are of the older version and newer pictures
will be added in the next couple of weeks.
Thanks for the bandwidth.
Happy flying,

No, not really. Peak detection is always on on the Triton.

Russ,
There is a setup menu option telling the charger not to peak detect for "so
many" minutes. I doubt it can be set to 14 hours or so. Maybe.

Sand it lightly with wet-or-dry sandpaper while wet. This will contain
the carbon dust and keep it from getting into your lungs.

I just noticed the other day that Best Buy takes batteries for recycle. My local store has a drop location right inside the door for recycling batteries.

sounds like things haven't changed) had the tight joiners and I sanded
