    Alert! The FAA want's you out of the NAS!!!

    I've been working on my essay... urrr response LOL. The point in the link you shared does make a valid point. Decades of safety ignored by the FAA. I wish to think this isn't true... but to see the lack of effort put into the NPRM for model aviation is pathetic and needs to be addressed. A FED...

    Theses are nice. http://greatplanes.com/accys/sanders.php Or you can put a stopping block on your table and take some passes over it with a sanding block.

    British Airways Freewing AL37 RC twin 70mm EDF Airliner

    Been looking at that AL37. Flies in high alpha! Holds up in torture testing too. Storage would be the issue with me! Looks like a fun jet!

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

    Needs some fine tuning. But the trim is basically done. It’s a lot harder to do scale strips on a square fuselage than I anticipated. I hate to admit that I cheated a lot....... cut covering to patch and make the lines strait. This ain’t no show model, but it’ll look sweet flying. I just need to...

    Yeah... felt abrasive. Turned into a debate which wasn't what I was aiming to do after not flying for 2.5months and getting the opportunity to leave the house without the 3mo old for a couple quick flights. I try not to be abrupt... but he kindof poked the bear ha ha ha Thanks!! I'll have to...

    I can't say that I have run into that. Wintertime I'm usually flying electric, and to be honest a lot of foam. I did a test with a radio mitt. With and without. Without I lasted about 4 min. With it lasted the whole 7-8min flight and was feeling pretty good. I didn't have much insulation in...
