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

    I just did a size comparison of your nose gear block. Wow, this is actually going to be a fairly decent sized flying wing isn't it Snoops? Very cool. DON'T LIKE BUTTON X49 times. Grrrr...that would piss me off.

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

    There is a lot to be said for scratch building. If done correctly and with a little forethought in mind, quality strong and light Italian balsa can be had at an affordable price. It is always more expensive to scratch build. It is a never ending task from start to finish...I need this.... Oh, I...

    Cool Hangin’ in the Hangar

    That is so very cool. Definitely worth keeping under protective glass. Love it. Pretty hard to not get interested in something of this nature. Good stuff out there that not many of us get much of a chance to see. Let alone enjoy. Thanks for bringing to our homes (computer screens) that...

    IMAC Aero Tech 35% Velox Custom Build

    Ok fellas, I am going to "TRY" to upload some photos of the last couple of days work on the Velox. I say "try" as my internet is being especially retarded tonight. Not sure I can even get them to come through, but will try. In short, I have now got the rudder cut free from the Vert. Fin, and...

    Spektrum DX-20 Recall Info

    So this is just my two cents worth sense I have never owned a DX** radio. I almost bought a friends 18 stealth. Missed it literally by minutes before another friend snagged it. Then I considered the new DX20. I am now glad I selected something else. I have not seen or heard, (until now) any...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Ah man!! Just my luck. I'm sure the shipping can be worked out. But... if you change your mind.....!!! Pretty sure I can stop the stick pins.

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Omg...omg...OMG!!!! Pick me, pick me...PICK ME!!! PLEASE, CONSIDER MY DEAD PRESIDENTS at the top of the list. So, back when I started my hiatus from the hobby, I had a complete Bob Dively Super Stearman. Along with the Nosen Stang and numerous planes, radios...engines, (including my coveted Moki...

    IMAC Aero Tech 35% Velox Custom Build

    Believe it or not, I have been making progress on the Velox each night after work. I've been a little tired so I haven't been able to get any photos or postings done. I will try to get a little of that accomplished tonight. First, I do now have the stabs/elevators and fin/rudder trimmed, sanded...

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    It is surprising to me how many people are building and flying Cubs. I never was too fond of them. They just seem so slow and lazy, I couldn't find an interest. Yet anymore I am starting to realize that they can actually be a lot of fun. Especially a really really really big one with a Kolm flat...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Hmmm... did you special order your wife like that? Or just something that happens over time? Either way, where can I get one like her? And this before Christmas even. Nicely done Mrs. Ace!!

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Well fellas, its official. An official reality that is. Until tonight, I had four large boxes of pre cut wood formers, balsa sheets, sticks and fiberglass parts. I also had a marvelous Austrian made engine. No big. But now? As of tonight, the United Parcel Smashers driver brought me a perfectly...

    Awesome Video Thread

    This has always been one of my favorite videos. But then again, I have always been very partial to a Stearman. That Valach 800 is the cat's meow for that plane.

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Yup...its too late for you now too Snoops. The venom is now coursing through your veins. It is being pumped to every organ of your body. And much faster than you realize, it will take over your brain, which will automatically become dependent and rewire its neurological network of nerves. Your...
