    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    Yes, multiple colours on some. The Raven logo has three separate colours. I haven't played much with this yet but if you get a very high resolution from the internet, lets say a watch, you can put it in the silhouette program and add register marks to in when you print it out on your ink jet...

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    Vinyl is far heavier than anything we cover our planes with. I have heard of some people adding a pound to their planes if they get really carried away. These on the tail on my raven were all cut out with the silhouette. All were cut out on the silhouette using the scrap vinyl from my friend...

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    I have a friend that does car wraps with vinyl, he also does signs etc. He gives me his left over vinyl which sometimes is enough to cover a plane. The silhouette will cut many different things. Even has a setting for balsa which I have never tried. It will cut covering but also something I have...

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    It is a sticker I made myself. I bought a silhouette cameo a few years ago. I can take a clean image from the internet, trace it, resize it and cut it out. I have made stickers for a few club members as well for scale planes.

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

    Help me understand. Now a days most parameters can be set up in my TX. I do not understand what the servo setting can do?

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    Thank you. I'm trying to put more pictures up but it said they are to large. I myself can not wait for a sunny day when I can take it put side to get the entire plane in one picture.

    Snoop, I have a 3/4 CF tube that is your for the asking, it is 28.5 inch long. You pay shipping that should not be much as we are not that far apart. PM me your address if you want it.

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    I have friend that feels the same way. Plus he has the module in the back so he can still use all of his many DSM2 rx's. The way the bay is on the back of the x20 that module will not fit it. I'm sure it will come but how long will that take. He is the same as yourself, see no need to change.

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    I have been flying with a FrSky Horus x12s since it came out. I have open TX on it. I am very happy with the system but I doubt that I'm using 20% of what Open tx is capable of. I do have the new x20s on order and it now runs on ETHOs operating system. Etho's was designed by one of the creators...

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    As far as I know I am the third owner of this kit. The first gent bought it and ran into big problems rather fast. All he did was skin the lower half of the fuse. He was not a builder, never had built a plane before. The second owner bought it and never did anything with it, I think he was...

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    I ran out of the 1mm. Whom ever did the fuse wasted to much. I had to do the turtle deck and canopy deck with 1/16. That went much better and easier to cover.

    Now that looks like the style of build I could use right now!! And a nice plane!!

    3D Vertigo build, any interest in a build?

    This was the hardest build and covering job I have ever done. Usually covering is my favorite part of the build, but not on this plane. Fought with it all the way. It seems like because the 1mm balsa over the foam and sheeting glue is so thin air has nowhere to go. Nothing but air pockets if I...

    Not a scale plane, just designed to be different and light.
