    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Glad to here you got some time in. I moved a helicopter out of my way last night. That's as close to flying one as I've come so far this year.

    Looks great! I'm running out of reasons not to get my project in the air too.

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Well I'm getting close. I have a list of things to do still, but it's basically done. I'm going to CG it tomorrow which is something I'm not looking forward to since I'm betting it's as tail heavy as Kim Kardashian. ;)

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

    Hopefully it will end soon. I know one thing, the next guy that uses the word drought around me is getting a swift kick to the tea bag.;)

    Sport JTEC RADIOWAVE 26% Pitts Model 12

    Some projects are just like that sometimes. That's why I have a rule in my shop that I don't work on Dodge Vipers. That last one I worked on ended up being such a giant headache I will never touch another one. :ugh!:

    The I'm NOT going out flying thread.

    Yeah we're going to need an Ark around here soon. The forecast is calling for up to 4.5" more rain in the next few days. Interstate 44 has been closed, and Interstate 55 is closing at midnight as well.

    Spektrum DX-20 Recall Info

    I'm a JR/Spektrum user that has had great luck with my stuff. But my opinion of Horizons quality control really couldn't be any lower. The quality control on my Hangar 9 120cc Extra 300X is nearly non existent.

    Scale 25% Krier Kraft build, a tribute to grampa.

    Some of the cheap spray guns work great. I have a cheaper HVLP at work made for spraying Spray Polyester primer which is VERY thick stuff. It sprays it better that the two $400+ Sata Poly guns that I've used before and I only spent $120 on it. In a world where a new color or clear gun for me is...

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

    People on that other site use "Fanboy" like it's a dirty word. If something works great for you, than you'd be silly not to be a fan. That is how I feel about my JR/Spektrum stuff and my DA's and RedLine oil. It's all been ultra reliable "FOR ME" so why would I change. I know I'm not going to...

    Scale 25% Krier Kraft build, a tribute to grampa.

    I don't think it's ever going to stop raining here, so I feel your pain. Especially since I remember my days painting Lacquer when you had to turn the heat on on a 85 degree day just to get the humidity down enough to paint.

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    I got a little work done this weekend. I glued the hinges in the aileron on the left wing and mounted the servo and linkage. Hopefully I get the other one done in the next few days.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    You think that ones was nerve racking, just wait till you do the Pitts! I think that's why I haven't finished the little bit of work I have to do on my scratch build. When it's done I have to fly it.

    That's because I'm in denial about that part.:)

    The I'm NOT going out flying thread.

    I haven't flown yet this year. Here lately it's been rain, work, rain, family, rain, laziness, rain, wind, and did I mention rain?
