140” Turbo Bushmaster assembly
You can reload the pictures by reselecting them and under your phone options pic large or medium instead of fullsize. Medium is good for many regular non-detailed pics. Also when they loaded into the attachments you can select them and add to the message body. I usually do this.- AKNick

Enjoyed seeing the mini T-cub prototype. Very light and I gave Tim a hard time for not seeing a float block on it. It’s designed to use the same power setup as the 67” planes One of my favorites to watch fly was this custom scheme PAU that Jeremy Blocker was flying. The fluorescent pink...- AKNick

140” Turbo Bushmaster assembly
Heck yeah! Seems like the 84" and the 140" are the two Bushmasters to have! Theres a video floating around of a powerbox servo lifting some weights and it's pretty impressive. @stangflyer would appreciate the redhead motor.- AKNick

I think chipmunks are awesome in general. Tim said the latest factory sample (large chippy) had only little revisions to do but the aerodynamics were spot on. I talked to another guy who flew it and said it was a big teddy bear. Point rolls and such were smooth and it flew great. I think it’s a...- AKNick

Here’s some more shots from today. In the 80’s and I’m dying ha ha. My NG shot was from Karen Yesterday, always fun to see her snapping photos and to see what they look like in the evening!- AKNick

The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread
Neded to reinforce the canopy latch area, thought I could just epoxy a plywood shelf in and that would really make a solid fit… then I got to thinking… what about a little seat… for Captain America. He’s crashed a plane before but it might be time for redemption AND MAYBE some laughs. I’ve...- AKNick

Wing leading edge sheeting crack repaired, recovered. Added some glass strips to the motor box for some extra piece of mind after repairing the delamination.- AKNick

Define "Summer" as: No snow, trees are green, flourishing with life, fish to be caught... I'd be wearing shorts and a T-shirt during your winters. Most of us do not have A/C in our homes. Weird thought yeah? We'll get in the 70's- AKNick

The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread
Patched up my fuselage where I had previously repaired the balsa from some minor breaks. Also patched up the motor box with some light fiberglass for reinforcement. Next up is a LE seam that popped on the right wing. I’m getting there- AKNick

Sport Racing plane for 3 cylinder Kolm engine.
I've had my 18SZ for 9 years! Been a good radio. What hurts the most about switching brands is the receivers. I really liked the interface of the Graupner MZ series but then the support went kapoot when they closed the rc branch. It's nice seeing more app style widgets in modern controllers like...- AKNick
