    Friday Coverage (Day 1)

    @gyro this picture says it all! Take a look at the covering on the belly of the fuselage. The twisting made me look further and you can see that the front of the plane is AHEAD OF THE TAIL in the roll!!! You can't time pictures like this one. It should be a reminder that if you are doing some...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Got back from an IMAC contest in Broken Arrow, OK this afternoon. Had a blast and am VERY HAPPY that my 330LX is still in one piece! My unknown today didn't go so well. One would think that a simple split-s with 3/4 roll followed by an opposite 3/4 roll on exit wouldn't be that much of an issue...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I guess I should kick the other two in and get some real power :) Already looking at the 224 for a possible future project :) Can't imagine what kind of power it has with what the 180 is putting out :) I have a total of 20 flights on the engine and I still land with a big grin on my face every...

    Hey Rob, @stangflyer, here is a link to the maiden video. Not sure if you have seen it yet or not. This is with the 29x12EVO 3 blade that has stayed in place since the initial run :) Just some mild IMAC type flying.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Went out last night and tonight for a total of 7 more flights on the 330lx with the zdz180. What a monster :-) I think I may have figured out a secret to starting the engine tonight. 3 flips with the choke, turn the choke off and 3 more flips and we are running. Will see if that same procedure...

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

    Installed a new tail wheel arm and steering setup on the Edge. The old arm had delaminated, broken where the tail wheel mounted to it. I gave @Vern.Smith a call at White Rose and ordered a good one from him. Got it 3 days later and finally got around to putting it on.
