    Sunshine all day today but windy as you described. Sunday calling for 5-10 so me and the boyz going to make some noise. This could be a day similar to the one when this picture was taken.

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

    A bit more done. Completely opened up the "box" where the stock motor mount screwed in. No provision for cooling air to get through:concern:. Motor was doomed right out of the box for sure.

    To let you all know.......That motor had issues from the get go. When I first assembled the plane the motor had metallic debris in it and I had cleaned it all out (at least I thought I did ). HK Turnigy motors such as the NTM, Motor Match and Prop Drive series are usually pretty decent. The...
