    You all are so awesome. Thanks... Yes, I'll be back on this project very soon. Probably as soon as next weekend. I do need some time to catch on what everyone has been up to. You all have been behaving right?

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Would have loved making the Nall in the Fall event. Just not in the cards. Next year though is a different deck of cards. I hope I dont get dealt a bunch of bum cards. Lol. The Behemoth Stang should make it. It will be priority until finished.

    My friends... It has been a very long summer and far too many hours at work for this old man. I will update ya'll soon. Just felt I needed to stop by and say thank you all for the kind regards and well wishes. I will be getting back on my projects soon. And have even acquired a recent one I am...

    Scale 1/3 Scale Extra 330L Build.

    I absolutely agree with the thought of buying good equipment. Never risk your pride and joy to less than quality products. My favorite for 100-120cc planes is the Hitec HS7954sh or HS7955th. Been using three 7954's on each aileron of the Behemoth Yak. Not quite as powerful or quite as fast, but...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Indeed...I have been feeling it for some time. Your post from earlier just reminded me how close to home it is. Are we getting old? Or are we just ready to have some fun and enjoy what we have? Building is great. But flying is even better. :yesss:

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    What is crazy too, is that when you do find a good kit still in existence the person holding it seems to think it is worth a million dollars. I understand rare kits are hard to find and will cost a little more when found. But sometimes it is so ridiculous. I have located two older Top Flite kits...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Yes indeed it is a lot of balsa and glue and truly a builders project. Almost scary to realize how many hours is already invested into this build. If I sat down and calculated it up, I would easily be pushing the 150 hour mark. And we haven't even gotten to the main wings yet. LOL. Not to...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    I spent a few more hours with the fin and rudder this morning. Now basically done, about all that is left is to build the counter balance for the rudder. Then shape and sand. There have been a lot of things about this build I just do not understand why they were designed to be...

    Pretty darned nice. But what is even nicer is that Behemoth shop you got it put together in. LOL. Way to go my friend.

    Scale Corsair F4U 1/3 scale

    Here is a very interesting read fellas. Not only were the landing gear short (in the lowest part of the bend on the wings), but a behemoth sized prop too. But there was a reason for this. I did not know that the Navy needed 1000 mile range and a 70 mph stall speed...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    So what does one do when they can't sleep in the wee little hours of Sunday morning? Well read what everyone else has been up to the last week of course. Duh! Sorry for not updating everyone sooner. I do have a few new photos to upload. The Fin and rudder are over half done now. I will get the...

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    Very nice work there Tony. I am really interested to know what your thoughts of the RotoMotor are. I have heard mixed reviews. I would love to have a 130fsi to compare to the Kolm. My guess is it would be the difference between a DA 150 and a 3W 157. Just no contest and a hands down winner for...

    For Sale HAVE YOU CRASHED YOU PLANE? NEED REPLACEMENT PARTS?

    Ok, This could prove to be very helpful. First, I am going to need to build servo boxes for the Behemoth Stang main wings. (ailerons and flaps.) Probably rudder as well. I have framework for the Kolm 150cc throttle and choke. (came with the Kolm install kit) But would be open to your design. I...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    You really must let me know how you like that "back yard basher". Two wings on a light airframe would be light as a feather and very floaty. Love it.
