Just finished up my Maxified Big Daddy. Decals are very old, maybe my last set of Sandman Decals.

Lee,

Looks great!

What motors do you plan to use?

Bob

Very nice Max collection Lee. Your “Maxified” Big Daddy looks great.

I left this 24mm, but plan to use my 24/60 RMS. That casing offers a number of different F reloads — White Lightning, New Thunder, Fast Jack, and Redline. I’ve only flown the White Lightning, but have a couple of the others.

Thanks all, for the compliments.

Wow, Lee. That really is beautiful.
It both inspires me to try it and intimidates me away from trying it at the same time.

Lee I just watched the 24/60 Redline static test on YouTube ... that gets my vote ... Red on Red!
