    The 3D Compiliation -- Facts, How-to, Reference, & more!

    Ah yes...The Vortex. It has become quite common these days. You see that particular maneuver tossed in with lots of other high energy aerobatics. I like to watch people when they are really good and they mix it in on a routine with lots of other really cool maneuvers. The key to this (in my...

    IMAC Aero Tech 35% Velox Custom Build

    Back on the Velox tonight. The events this week have been pretty exciting. Next Tuesday, the gear for the Mustang will be here. So I need to make some serious dents to the work load on the Velox. I trimmed the excess sheeting on all edges of the right stab/elevator and then sanded the surfaces...

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Thanks Snoopy. Yeah, it's a sickness for sure. I had to chuckle last night when I was packing up to leave my friend's house. He told me he said, you know, if you want you can just leave that here so we won't have to keep mounting it when we want to break it in. My response as you can probably...

    Be careful of that drooling. People could mistake it as a sign there is a mental deficiency and have you committed. Lol. Oh wait, there "is" a mental deficiency. Anyone that spends more on an airplane engine than a vacation to another country seriously needs physiologic help.

    Yeah... you know what he meant Lol. Yes, I would venture a guess that we are "one of those". Hell, if I didn't talk to my chi-hua-hua, dubs or now Beast Kolm, I would be sick. :laughing:

    Thanks Mike. But no can do. Got to get that Velox done first. Time to get down to business. Yes, I do indeed. Only one question. You talk about them? Huh, I see me talking "to" the beast. Not like I do my redheads. But good conversations all the same. Lol

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Yes, yes there is. And..."HERE", it is!! At least it is a start. So, I wonder how much I could get for all my redheads? Anyone interested? Never, have I ever had a brand new engine that started so eloquently easy! A spray of gas to get the dry girl wet and vroom....! This video is honestly the...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Snoopy, definitely up and coming. Be patient just a few more minutes. As for you David, I know you guys better than you think I do. Mainly because I know me and I know what I would do. LOL. Y'all would not just touch it. You'd want to play with it and do other assorted things with it. Naa, think...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Here's the deal. I have a few questions in to Thomas Gass of Kolm engines. He usually answers quite fast. One question I had for him was if it is ok to mount the engine to test run it. Though there are a score of videos on YouTube showing the 150 being test run and hung only by the back of the...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    well, I considered the living room table. But it really can't be in two places at one time. You don't think I was going to sleep alone last night do you? LOL

    Scale Don Smith P-51 Mustang

    Nice thought, but truthfully....not even caring about how "FAST" it will go. I just can't wait to see the coooooool air envelope the Mighty Stang. LOL. Going to be a challenge to do the engine justice giving it a classy and right smart looking home to reside in. I will give it my best shot.

    Thanks David.. yes, I'm certain to be dreaming of high speed pursuit sorties. Chasing those Jerries. Pulling up to a grandiose slow victory roll as the Luftwaffe pilot eats it. The roar of the power from up in the nose will sing sweet lullabies while I slumber. Thank you so much. Worked my ass...

    Finally... it is here. OH and how relieved I am. I have been on pins and needles for over a week. Worrying and stressing. Not sleeping and not eating and...****, I sound like I am chasing a girl. LOL... Not much at my age turns me on these days. Give me a beast motor and a set of wings...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Hmm....What is this? The Postman must really like me right now. Course, I have been a really good boy this year. I have ate all my veggies, and I make my bed often. I do the dishes, (when they are ten miles high) I go to work and I play with the doggie. Maybe Santa dressed up like the postman...
