    Sport JTEC RADIOWAVE 26% Pitts Model 12

    Tonight is the night. With the construction complete and really nothing left to do, I am going to attempt starting the covering. I will, (due to time constraints) start with the elevators, rudder and interplane struts before moving on to the wings and the fuse. I expect this process to go much...

    Scale 25% Krier Kraft build, a tribute to grampa.

    You get to spend about as much time on your Krier as I do the Jtec. Sure is a busy season no doubt. None the less, she is looking really great. I really enjoy seeing your photo updates and descriptions. It is really fun to see things like this come together. I sometimes look back at some of the...

    Resurrecting an Old Favorite - 3DHS 87" Extra SHP

    It's really disappointing when you try everything you can and discover there is no humanly possible way to make an airframe fly well. I had a knock of Aerobeez 50cc Slick the same way. I am no Jase or Gabby or even Supa Tim, but I'm not a slouch either. I never could get that Slick to do...

    Exactly. The Valach 210 twin is very cool. My friend has one in his Pilot 46% Decathlon. He stuffed a Mobile 250 in his Turner. His winter build he's working on is a 50% Christian Eagle with a Kolb 240 flat 4 quad. Have I mentioned want to be my friend? Lol

    You all are so kind. Thanks for understanding. Yes, the cold weather and the season certainly does make building delayed. Thank you all for the suggestions and comments on the canopy. It really does look sportier. I can envision the instrument panel and pilot installed. I think it is going to...

    Hey everyone, sorry I have not been around much lately. We in Idaho have been experiencing a new storm system every day to day and a half. It has been utterly miserable here. I can't remember when the last time was we had such messed up weather. Work has also occupied a very large portion of my...

    I was wondering about that. Wish I had a canopy without the raised frame in the canopy. I guess I don't have to paint the frame in, but it will look kind of hoaky.

    That is what I was thinking. Probably another 2" at the most. Unfortunately, the hatch sheeting is not going to allow for any more length. So!!! I am going to remove "all" the hatch sheeting and start over. I would rather have a long "one" piece sheet instead of the sectioned in pieces. Not a...

    Ok everyone, I really blew it this time. I should have left well enough alone. Oh but nooooo....I just gotta go messin' wit stuff. LOL. Actually, I think it is going to come out looking pretty bad ass. I still have some sanding and some final fitting before I cut the canopy to fit the hatch. But...

    That's awesome. It is very discouraging to not be able to match paint with your covering these days. It really made me sad when ultracote would not sell or make their paint to match their colors. But I guess it is what it is right?

    Well, here goes another spooky adjustment. The hatch was fine. But nooooo, I just gotta mess it up. I'm going to cut my radius cockpit opening out and extend the hatch. Why??? Cuz I want a single seater. I figure if I'm going to do the scheme decided upon, might just as well make it match...
