    I like the dust table you are making looks great. I need to do the same thing. My old box fan give up the ghost about a week ago. I plan to build one before I start my next model and I will have to come over and get some ideas from you. I have to do something because even with my dust...

    The tail surfaces look great and the counter balanced elevators will work well and take some loads off of the servos. I counter balanced the elevators on the Laser 200. I also split the ailerons anxious to see how they will work out. I have not covered anything yet so will be sometime before...

    My wing halves for the 38 percent Laser are 52.250 long and the root rib is 24.250 and unless your wing halves are much larger we should be able to cut them.

    I am so happy to see the progress on the Hyper Edge, everything looks great glad to see you back in action. I have a band saw you are welcome to use. I cut the ailerons out of my wing cores with it unless your wing cores are a lot larger than mine and the same goes for the rudder and elevators.

    I am glad to hear someone is flying outdoors and Bipenut is getting better. Bipenut called me last evening and he is much improved and getting his truck back from the body shop no doubt helped. We all hope and pray for your speedy recovery. I am looking forwards to your updates on your build...

    I own DA Engines and they are stump pullers. This is my first DLE 120 and I have an idea it will not pull with a DA 120 as far as brute power. My friends have DLE 111 engines and I am impressed with the power of the 111. I thought I would give the DLE a try. Thanks I appreciate your...

    Hi Terry, You advised me about using Falcon props on my DLE 120. I am ready to order one for it in the 29 x 9. I see there are two offerings in this prop size, a 29 x 9 wide blade and a I suppose a standard 29 x 9 size. What do you recommend between the two blades, the wide blade or the...
