    IMAC Delro 2.5M Raven Build

    Ah...that! That is a sandwich of 1/4 inch ply with carbon fiber on either side. Not really necessary in that application but I had it laying around. It is nice in that the carbon fiber layer stops any denting of the ply from the washer/nuts that are tightened on it. That piece is there to...

    I am rather embarrassed to return here and discover it has been almost a year since I posted any progress (because I have not really made any) :frown:...not to mention I started this build in 2014...Pathetic! Anyway, progress is being made and I am very near completing all details and beginning...

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

    A buddy of mine once said that buying quality only hurts once....buying cheap hurts every time you use it. I think those are good words to live by in this hobby. While we aren't in the plane, every quality issue is amplified by the risk of not making it to a smooth controlled landing. This is...

    ROLLING Chicken Stick

    There's plenty of people that have damaged/lost fingers from propping an airplane. Just last year at our field one of our most experienced and responsible members didn't realize the tail of his plane wasn't in the restraint before propping his plane...when it fired the plane lurched forward into...

    It has an AGM 30cc gas engine ( I bought it complete without the PR Bushwheels which I added) and it only had 4 flights on it when I bought it and I put 3 flights on it today.

    The entire package is made by PR Bushwheels in Alaska. There's a link in my original post. Make sure you are sitting when you look 'cuz it ain't cheap! ($385 for everything pictured) but it is high quality and worth every penny to me.
