Discussion The I’m Going/Went Flying Thread
Did a little snow time flying this afternoon. Now what is on the tires is all there from landing but all the stuff all over the rest of the plane is from while in the air. could really feel it at the end of the flight but it was fun.- BalsaDust

The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread
Well I can't get the computer to remote into to be able to have a license to run inventor from home but I will do my best to explain without them and can post pictures tomorrow. Take the horizontal portion of the fuse. That is actually done in three different sketches and could have been done in...- BalsaDust

The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread
Little more to it that that but yes I could use them to turn it into a 3D model. Now doing full fuse stuff I’m not sure about just yet but will get there. Little later when I’m back on the computer I will take some screen shots and explain some of the differences between it and AutoCAD. Simply...- BalsaDust

Yes full blown inventor from Autodesk. It’s on my work laptop provided to me so I didn’t pay anything for it. Just check out a license when I want to use it. Here is the start of a flat plate foamie.- BalsaDust

Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”
covering all the edges first on a profile is the best way to go but it is tedious work especially when working on one that is smaller and only 1/4" thick.- BalsaDust

Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”
I just based it off the foam I have in my shop currently which is depron that is right at 9mm thick which close to what most EPP out there is. Basic specs are 32” span 29-1/2” long. Hopefully only about 7-8 ounces all up wieght. If you look at the 32” foamies that value hobbies sells it will use...- BalsaDust

Haven’t done anything RC related with it yet but started learning a 3D design software called inventor. Really cool program but totally different from what I’m used too with 2D AutoCAD.- BalsaDust

I would advise against using the aeroworks techniques. I promise you if you build the plane as I have it drawn on the plans it will be very strong and lightweight and easy to build.- BalsaDust

The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread
I’m thinking of getting one. If I do it may get the floats I have a be a water bird only and I will continue to trash my other UMX timber. Also thinking of ordering the more powerful motor for the stock one to wake it up more.- BalsaDust

Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”
It’s a macs header and a dollar tree metal spray bottle. Worked awesome. Really woke up the os 55ax. Not saying it was ever a bad motor as it’s great without it but ridiculous fast throttle response on the pipe. It worked good to give you power all through your RPM band unlike the long tuned...- BalsaDust

Scale 20cc Edge 540 Profile “The Glitter”
It's hard to see in this photo and I will see if I can find a better one but all I did on the 40 sized one when I built it was literally a small piece of double sided foam tape to stick it in place and then drilled a small hole through the fuse in front and behind the servo and wrapped a tie...- BalsaDust

Gothca. I have a all composite Dagu Red that a club member gave me about a year ago. Want to get it in the air but its designed around a 40 two stroke glow and I just haven't had the energy to tackle converting it to electric.- BalsaDust
