Well the little 50cc 3D plane is almost done. All that still needs to be is pickup the servo regulator from the LHS and be installed. Then I can setup the radio and just wait for some good weather with very little wind for a plane like this plane.
Well with that plane virtually done I am looking for something new to build and something interesting, not a 3D plane build a number of them now and not a cub or anything with retractable gear.

Wow how did that happen. You did have pin hinges in the wing or was it CA hinges. That would scare me. What are you going to do. Is it a bad batch of hinges and from home.

They were the stock pin hinges that came with the plane. Way to small for a gasser. I drilled all 5 out and used Robart 301's. Wing will explode before those Robarts break. Left wing panel seems ok but I will do the same to it sometime soon. Got to go fly it tomorrow first :).

Omg... does it ever end? I was all jacked up, primed and ready to fire some update photos at you all. Oh nooo! Not happening... remember that new laptop I just purchased? Yeah.. you'd think they would give it everything it needs when it's built right? Not so much apparently .

Oh yeah... cuz this is fun. 3 hours elapsed and I'm still waiting. I hate computers. Maybe some photos later.

I should have bought a new 3w instead . At least they run out of the box. angry emoticon.png

My iPad and iPhone work great. Just snap a pic and post. Always a pita to transfer pics to the pc first.

You are not have much success are you. Well I tr y never to change my computer when I was still working the IT department would come around every 3 years to give a new computer and would fight like hell to keep my old one . Just hated updates the dam thing would not work for weeks until they got it figured out.
