    Sport The Behemoth Yak gets a Behemoth Brother/129" Pilot Yak (2)

    @thurmma Being serious. Do you think saddle soap would do the same thing? Used saddle soap to soften tan leather like on my ball gloves when I played ball in school. It has a WAX like quality to it and cleans/softens (beeswax & lanolin). A bit less pricy for the product initial cost but you...

    3D MOJO 65 w/20cc Build

    I like torque and thrust or "beast power". I have a new description for the "insane" power types......"Hummingbird" :on_the_go:. So.....The 26cc I mated with an 18 x 8 and flying an 11 pound plane has "Authority" in hover pull outs but not "ballistic". Unlimited vertical as well but at a more...

That's why the "Stangman" going to get us sum VIDEO so we can daydream of beautiful red heads shaking about the fluff and blue. :cautious: That sounded a wee bit too "colorful"......Obviously I suffer from "shutindisorder".

    I've done the same thing but BOY I like that Canuba wax Idea :). I wonder if a leather soap would do the same thing?

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

    Parts starting to trickle in for the DL50 rebuild. Do have to say the cylinder got here :on_the_go:. Looks to be a decent part. Looks as if it might have been dropped during handling but very very minor and easy fix. May "chase" the spark plug threads though. One thing I did notice is that it...

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

    See what ya mean. Not a "necessary" item. They do make setting up the pull pull with a centered rudder servo a bit more easy and give better protection from a broken cable at the "load point" by making two load points. One at the dual set screw keepers and one where the cable wraps back through...

    My buddies was doing the same thing at first when we had it on his Zlin 50. Suspected the ignition cap. Plane was evently lost due to suspected RFI. It was using the stock muffler at that time. I did his Edge build and installed a new A-02 Rcexl ignition and new pitts style muffler with a VVRC...

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

    Made up a small carbon fiber tail wheel for my buddies Edge. Came from my old EF 64" MXS. Put a nice rubber tire on it so the weight should be about the same as the one that failed.

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

    Got a carbon fiber landing gear "bored" for pants/wheels and fuse attach. Installed the pants and wheels. Going on my buddies Edge. The stock aluminum gear was pretty flimsy so I guess he wont mind that I destroyed it making templates :D.
