    The scale rule book requires a pilot figure if the pilot can be seen during flight. For Carper Classic I used a 30% bust mounted on a piece of white foam. The 1/3 scale pilot arrived today from I Fly Tallies. He 22" tall and I think his head needs to be a little bigger. Also need to relocate...

    Flight line at "Wings Over Piper" today. This was the first day and folks continued to arrive throughout the day. There are not many places in PA where you don't need to worry about trees when flying. My first flight of the day was a little after 9:00 and it was dead calm, what a wonderful...

    Calling Snoopy.... Just seen that Brooma offers heavy duty servo wire with the .5mm power wires and the .3mm signal wire. Last time I looked at Power Box site they had dropped this wire.

    The Armstrong RC Flyers had their picnic/fun fly on Saturday and I got an invite. Had a great time, spent 7 hours there, maybe six flights. Someone had a real swell 1/3 scale Champ! Burgers, dogs, corn, beans, salads, what a great spread they put out. Beautiful day, clean skies and light winds.

    Mini lathe (and mill) discussion.

    Just married a 4" Little Machine Shop adapter to a $37 Amazon ER32 collet holder. The old ER32 collet holder was a JT3 taper mount that did not allow for through hole work so I always wasted a little stock when I used it. This was much more work than I had hoped for. My spindle mount is a 39...
