I had a couple of friends turn their ppt to video and post it on U-tube. They said they just did a google search for "convert powerpoint to video" search. One sent me this link:

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Eric,

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Hi elvr,
I was able to use a VP-30 on my 1.25 with good results. It took me a while to "dial it in", but I eventually got it right. Unfortunately, I only had a few weeks to play with it before I...

Hi obriend.

Greetings Gentlemen,
I was hoping your vast experiences could tell me if what I noticed this weekend with my 1.25 was normal.

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

W8ye, Thanks for the guidance. I was wondering how the 17-4 got named "the 3D prop for the 1.25"?
It seems to make sense looking at the prop chart in my manual, and I'm definitley going to give...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Hi Hobbsy,
I picked that prop based on what seemed to be the most popular size/type for the guys using the engine in 3D planes (I have it in a Funtana X100). I haven't done a lot of 3D, so I just...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Thanks w8ye. I'll keep turning in the LSN and try to get it to round 3rd base.

I bought a 125 a while back, but am just now adding wings to it. It's my first 4Stroke, too. Can I join, too?
