    Perhaps a moderator or admin can shed some light on this extremely annoying situation?

    Can someone please tell me why all of a sudden, I am bombarded and suffocated with ads on GSN? Not at all very enjoyable.

    I’m going out flying thread 2019

    The weather was simply gorgeous and a bunch of us decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather. My son and I made it a Pilot RC 330 day. I gotta tell ya all, that DLE 120 of his is a tough engine to beat these days. That thing really does every bit as well as any of my 3w engines. At...

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

    I spent roughly 6 hours today going through the Pilot 330SC/3w 157cs. Man, I did not realize it would take me that long. But no doubt it needed it. I had one cylinder gasket just barely starting to seep. And the reed block and cage gaskets were also starting to show signs of "wetting". The...

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

    Nicely done... I may have to have you cut me some graphs.... small ones of course. Maybe something like, "I am not compensating, I just like Behemoth RC Planes". LOL

    I know that is not true. You can out build many chaps with your eyes closed.

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    I get the same way also. There are times when I don't even want to look at the construction of a plane. And yet, there are other times that I would like nothing more than to lock myself to my building table and shut the whole world completely out. Right now I am in a massively high tide crest...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    I spent a couple more hours with the Behemoth Stang wing this evening after work. The plan last night was to decide on a plan of attach to join the center wing section halves. I decided that I did not want to compromise the structural strength or integrity of the wing, so I opted to slot the...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    I took a few minutes this evening to work on the big Mustang wing. I had to find a way to get the front Diehierdral brace in place without hacking everything up. So..As I am looking at it, it occurred to me that the easiest way to join the two center section halves was to "slot" the brace and...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Not too much progress the last couple of days on the big mustang. Been kind of tired after work. However, this evening I did take a few minutes to double check the alignment of the ribs laid down already. Sanded the sheathing overlap and spars on the left constructed wing center section...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    I I'm sure you are correct. I have never seen a 3w 4-stroke. Too bad! I would own them all. LOL :banana-dance::banana-dance::banana-dance:

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Oh loooooook…!!! TOYS!!! I love the postman today. New L80 canisters (2), gaskets and not pictured, new headers for the Beast 157cs. She has been a little down on power the last couple of flights. I swapped out the cans for new L90's. Ummm, pretty sure she don't like them. So back to a new set...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    You some funny guy! LOL Negative my good man. I also thought originally that it was due to the radiator scoop. However, if you watch all videos of all P-51 Mustangs, it seems that ferocious Frankie and only a select few others do it. The whistling that is. Turns out it is the air going across...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    I sometimes wonder if it is possible to study and really absorb the choreography that goes into one of ferocious Frankie's flights. It seems to me that no matter what maneuver is done And at what point, it is executed with extreme accuracy and intent. The victory rolls are graceful and precise...
