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

    My 11 year old Carf 50cc Extra only uses a single Phenolic horn. There were warnings about not bolting a ball link to the side of it because the twist could make it fail.

    I just watched the video on Youtube of the smaller yellow one flying. That silhouette sure is different. :)

    Composite ARF uses Phenolic for what ever that's worth.

    Just a thought, but if I ever build one of these I'm going to shorten the canopy to the single place canopy. I think they look awesome!

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

    I run RedLine, but since this canister was used when I got it 4 years ago I have no idea what was used in it before. But I can say that the DA50 that was in the plane the can came with was pretty nasty inside when I got it, but after running RedLine through it it got a lot cleaner and all that...

    I love classic pattern thread

    I really wish I would have gotten my Tipo from Leo. I was very disappointed in the quality of the one I bought. Plus he's only about an hour away. He offered me one in trade for some painting, but I had already bought one.:( I spent some time last night figuring out what parts I need to build...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    I try and do what I can, but I also don't stick my nose in unless they ask or I can see they are really struggling. I try not to butt in unless I'm sure I can help and I think they are someone that can be helped. One of my buddies had a Byron Mig 15 ducted fan many years ago and was tuning it...

    I used Titebond II on my scratch build. It works great, but the color when it dries sucks.

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Our weather today was even better than yesterday. I think I can say it was the best weather day I can ever remember at the field. I flew my Pilot Edge and my buddy flew his Carf Extra 330SC. He also brought his Stinger 90 EDF jet and we took turns and each put 4 flights on it. That thing is a...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    It turned out that the weather guessers were right today for a change. It was an awesome day! I decided to try out my new charge case and took two helicopters to the field this afternoon. Tomorrow is Pilot Edge day. Hopefully I'll get more time in then I did last Sunday when my rudder servo quit.
