    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Yep, I forgot to mention digitizer, I should have said Glass/LCD/Digitizer combo.. I get parts on Amazon a lot because I have prime and the free two-day shipping, but occasionally get parts off eBay too. I have to do the glass on an ipad2 next. The iPad's suck they are glued together lots of...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Yes, the hardest part is taking the front facing camera and sensors off the old glass and putting it back on the new glass. (Figuring out how it all goes). Also if the new glass doesn't come with the little plastic camera locator (you'll figure it out once you get in there) make sure you take...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I just did the battery in my daughters 5S last weekend. I'm not sure if the 5 is the same but on the 5S they used removable double sided tape which is nice! I did not use removable tape when I put the new one in. Funny thing, the replacement battery had some black tape on it, I removed it and...

    Airplane Cradles in the Shop, What works, what doesn't?

    Man I wish the plane I was building had a wingtube so I could enter... I think it would be cool enough.. Just no wingtube lol..

    With responsible, legitimate uses like this, I can't imagine why Quads are getting such a bad rap?

    Big Torque Servos - ProModeler PDRS420BLHV 420oz Brushless servo!

    If they came with arms that would be awesome! I don't even know why you buy an 8711HV and it comes with plastic arms? Why bother including something you can't (shouldn't/won't) use? They do look tempting, I did look at them briefly before I bought servos last time but didn't do any research...

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    One thing I didn't get a picture of is they ran a fiberglass "conduit" from the wingtip light back to the servo bay area which is nice for running the lighting wires. Flaps are obviously 3 pieces on each side, there's a torque rod which connects to the inner flap and then the middle flap has...

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    Ive spent a solid day tightening up and cleaning up covering. With the dark colored blue everything shows. There isn't a straight line on this plane.. Obviously.. The wingtips are all fiberglass and covering over fiberglass is difficult at best, much less completely round fiberglass. There...

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    I already have all the servos for this plane, but maybe the next one, thanks for the link.

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    I usually try to use JR servos because I like the zero deadband and the service. I also like to run HV servos so I don't have to deal with regulators. But for this plane I couldn't find a servo that was midrange in torque and midrange in price within the JR line. So... Recently I've been...

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    So the first thing I installed was also the first mod I made. I bought the recommended eflite LEDs for the wingtips and tail lights. The LEDs are small, maybe 1/8" or so? The wingtips have notches and lenses for the lights. The holes they drilled are huge, maybe 3/8" holes. They tell you to...

    Hangar 9 60cc Corsair Build

    If anyone is interested, I thought I would document my Corsair build. If anyone else has built one or is building one feel free to jump in! Just a little bit of warning, I take about twice as long as the average person to build my planes so this will be a SLOW to update thread! Also...

    Pin and flag switch with JR PS rx

    This is what the JR DMSS power safe receivers come with. (Bind plug style instead of the switch)
