IMAC JTEC MX2 3.1 Build by Terry P
I managed to get one wing in the bag today......did not realize there was not enough carbon tape for both wings. :sorry: Oh well the other wing will have to wait 5 weeks until I get back from the Mother Land.- oh58skid

IMAC JTEC MX2 3.1 Build by Terry P
That's right Al, in less than 3 weeks its all framed up and all but one wing is sheeted. I would have had it sheeted also but I ran out of carbon fiber, next time I will order 100 feet of the stuff ! This is the perfect kit for the first time builder or anybody wanting to build a kit. A few of...- oh58skid

IMAC JTEC MX2 3.1 Build by Terry P
The snow and having to leave to go back to work next week will slow down my progress to some degree. I should have all the control surfaces sheeted this weekend, so all of the major airframe components will be completed before I leave on Tuesday.- oh58skid

IMAC JTEC MX2 3.1 Build by Terry P
I got a little more done on he MX the past couple of days. After preparing all of the sheeting for the stabs, wings, rudder and turtle deck I started on the hatch. The parts for the hatch consist of the laser cut base, formers and mounting tabs. Once the base is aligned and clamped to the top of...- oh58skid

IMAC JTEC MX2 3.1 Build by Terry P
I started preparing all the sheeting for the wings, stabs, rudder and turtle deck. I won't bore anyone with the details of preparing sheeting. I will have to make a trip to West Marine tomorrow to pick up more 105 epoxy so I can start vacuum bagging this weekend. I have realized I need to build...- oh58skid

IMAC JTEC MX2 3.1 Build by Terry P
OK Guys here we go....... I gathered up all of the motor box parts and dry fit them together first to check the fit before gluing. All of the parts fit perfectly and tight. The motor box is self aligning so no jigs are needed for the assembly. Before final glue up of the motor box make sure the...- oh58skid

throttle curve for Da 150L on Re3s
I had the same issue with a DA 170 and RE3's. I was at contest a couple of years ago and Matt Balazs aka MattyMatt did some tuning on the engine and set up a throttle curve for me, which helped alot. Last year I sold the RE3's and replaced them with the Jtec HP 90's. Send MattyMatt a PM, I am...- oh58skid

SOLOSHOT2: Get The Perfect RC Video of Your Plane In Flight By Yourself!
In an earlier post I mentioned that the vibrations associated with the big gas airplanes will cause the tag to switch between the highlight mode and record start stop mode, because there is a feature with the tag that you can tap the top of the tag to highlight a scene or start and stop the...- oh58skid

SOLOSHOT2: Get The Perfect RC Video of Your Plane In Flight By Yourself!
Finally had a day of nice weather to go out and fly and play with the soloshot. After setting everything up I attached the tag to the landing gear of my park zone beaver. The soloshot tracked and kept the airplane centered in the frame thru out the flight. It's pretty cool to watch it pan and...- oh58skid
