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

    It is heat shrink tubing. It is about the nicest way I know of in terminating the ends on the snake skin. I have discovered that if you use just a little heat from your heat gun to shrink the tubing it does real nice job. But also does not damage the fuel tubing or any wires. The fuel fittings...

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

    I didn't get to the servo arms tonight on the Edge as planned. Some much needed items arrived today so I figured I would get some other things knocked out of the way. Throttle servo installed Wiring is now complete. Just need to tidy things up after I am done in the interior of the fuse...

    I'm seriously kidding. You really shouldn't be worrying about this. Thank you so much for the thought.

    I do worry about the chaffing. Usually I also use rubber gromets. But with the snakeskin, there is no concern.

    Oh please...do not feel bad. It is a beautiful scheme. Just a little difficult to get it all 100 percent. But it will be well worth it. I vent a little now and then, however most of it is just...well like, "der"...what was I thinking"! Lol. Funny you should mention the graphics though. I was...

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

    Honestly a stroke of dumb luck really. The badest bad ass of all time, SupaTim posted it on his website page on FB. The 100cc Pilot Edge and the 100cc Aeroworks Ultimate belonged to a customer/friend of his. The friend needed to make room for a new QQ Yak 54 and said these needed to go to make...

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

    I did a little tank and fuse plumbing tonight. I really had hoped to get more accomplished. But if I get at least one task done per night, I can still make the weekend maiden with time to spare. A little red sneaky snake skin on the ole yellow Tygon go-go juice tubing. And of course, Smart...

    I would like to think that it would be just that way. Honestly, I'm considering hanging it from the vaulted living room ceiling to throw darts at. Lol

    Ok...so the saga. Grrr....LOL. So, I needed just a tiny bit more Pearl Purple for one more coat on the cowl to get it right. I know, some of you say it looks good the way it is. But honestly, up close you can definitely see what I am talking about. Anyway, WWRC did not have any more paint in a...

    Thank you. But it looks like the Pitts will be a while before it's finished. The saga continues. I will update you all in a little bit.

    I am, hence that's why I kept the pilot Edge and gave the aeroworks ultimate to my son.

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

    I am. I just want to give the DLE 111 a chance before I replace it with the 106 CS. LOL. Or, maybe I will save the red headed beast for the extreme flight I've had my eye on for some time.

    Alert! 30 year RC collection Stollen

    Personally, I think it takes a very disturbed individual to do something of this caliber. I highly doubt any of his collection will make it up my way. But I can assure him, my eyes will be peeled nonetheless. Sorry for his loss. Totally bad form.

    So a little update on the Pitts. I received the final bottle of Pearl Purple paint from Kevin Saturday. Due to him being on the East coast, he had to send it to me in bottle form. It needs to be put into a spray can, which that will be done tomorrow. Once I have the spray can, I can shoot my...
