    IMAC practice tips for new pilots.

    I think you can use the auto zoom function to help. It has been a while since I have been on Phoenix, however. But, to answer your other question, yes I do use the sim to practice.

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

    Holy Crap! I thought California was bad. I guess we are only worried about the smog (every two years emission testing for all vehicles - unless a classic), who cares if the wheels fall off! :eek: LOL. Actually, please don't give them any ideas! I am sure you can probably still buy MEK, paint...

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Are you close to paint ready after your second coat? Use a plastic squeegee? Also, how does the weight compare for glass and paint to covering? Looking fantastic BTW! Edit: Found the answer by finding your link a few pages back to the glass and paint thread! Thanks for the great info!

    IMAC JTEC 2.7m Extra 300CS

    Wings: LE TE of ailerons glued on. Hinge holes drilled, servo boxes and control arm supports cut out and glued in place. Need to bevel the hinge line and finish capping all the surfaces. I did make a pretty good boo boo that resulted in an aweful lot of cussing. Didn't realize it until I started...

    Group Build, 20cc Profile ARF, Who's In?

    I like the idea of Terry's. That works for me. I would be very interested in the variety, options, and new ideas that would be implemented. Seems like a pretty efficient way to learn a whole bunch about the 20cc airframes out there - production, scratch, or otherwise. :yesss:

    3D Cbarnes 3D Slab Thread

    The short answer is the short kit, though I have everything needed to build. Was definitely a round about way to get the kit, as it was after Paul discontinued the full kit, but before he started selling the short. Great guy Paul is! He helped me out a ton to get me what I needed.

    I had the same tail heavy problem on my mojo25. Planning to do the same as you on the next build. Need to finish my JTEC extra first, then the mojo65, then to another 25. Sheesh, at the rate I'm going it's gonna be forever. Though if I can put them together as fast as you....

    How about glue? Do you thin CA most everything? Epoxy on the tube?
