    Hey!

    I'm installing the pushrod for the throttle servo on my 72" Extra. A bit of delicate routing/shimming to make the geometry decent.

    Nope. :( I was driving around with my 58" Edge in the car all day but ran out of time to fly it. Too bad, because the weather looked pretty OK. Not sure if the runway would have been cleared, though.

    The problem is I have to bring my five year old son and he's probably going to get tired of it about 30 seconds into my first flight and start clinging to my leg and annoy me enough to crash my plane...

    Decisions, decisions... It looks almost flyable today. Should I charge up some batteries?

    I'm always interested, but I try to do one plane at a time. Right now, I'm focusing on my 72" Extra... Bring it to GCA when the deep freeze stops and you may be able to change my mind. :)

    Re: ** The 3DRCForums 38! ** In conjunction with the NJ FLI, July 11-14th I should spend more time on planes flying across the country. Good things seem to happen while I'm in the air. :)

    Because he works with dead people? Dying is the most natural thing in life. OK, I'd admit, the whole embalming thing seems a bit messy to deal with, but there's nothing awkward about it. But then again, that's just me and my relationship to death.

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    Yeah, but I would have gone there with my 5-year-old twins. Believe me, it would have been a mess. I wouldn't have minded. I used to be a pretty serious skier when I lived in Europe. Spent a lot of time in the French and Swiss alps and did a bunch of climbs to peaks and skied down the back...

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    Well, it's 30F and gusting up to 30mph here, so I'm staying inside anyway. I was out playing with the kids for a while and it was pretty brutal. I was thinking of going to Camelback and I'm glad I didn't. Don't like windchill!

    Only sponsorships from airframe manufacturers count as disqualifying. So, yeah, 3DRCF sponsorship is OK.
