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

    I think every airframe I have now or have had in the past carries a bit of my DNA. (Yes officer I "CAN" prove it is mine) LOL. I have come to the conclusion no build is complete without a little blood shed. :laughing:

    Sport JTEC RADIOWAVE 26% Pitts Model 12

    How about a little update on the "Community" Pitts? I have taken a break from covering for a few days to start installing some components in the fuse. Since all that is left on the covering is the trim on the upper and lower wings, I figure I can afford myself a little break from the actual...

    Show Me the Biplanes!!!!

    Not the one I was thinking of. I believe it is Kit Cutters. However now that I think about it, not sure they offer anything small.

    We'll this is awesome information. I greatly appreciate the input. I will stay with the original planned '54's. I do like those servos a lot. Especially on an application such as this. I may pull them from the big Yak, as I want to make some revisions to that plane. They have been rock solid...

    Since we have like 73 feet of snow and the temps have been 46 today with a forecast of mid 40's most of the week....we should have rivers running down most of the city streets very soon. I therefore have decided I will take the airboat. Lol

    Sa-weetness!!!! I remember back when you moved. You had a heap on your plate didn't you?! Common sense...(and the "I'm a hangin' on to everything" sickness") paid off for you. On the flip side of that coin, take a look at my plane room. You'll soon realize, "I just gotta git rid of some of this...

    Type this into Google: rc pitts sd plans Amazing amount of plans available. Also, I am trying to remember the site that has all those awesome warbird plans. Escapes me right now. I'll remember soon enough...till then I am sure scores of you guys can recall it. What is that site??? Ugh...

    Ok everyone.... I am going to probably be making some changes to the setup that I originally planned for the Pitts. I had planned to install Hitec HS7954SH's throughout the plane, (except for the throttle). But I am now thinking that is going to be far more overkill than really is necessary. I...

    Show Me the Biplanes!!!!

    Pilot is most definitely "NOT" out of business. Tony's crew is banging out the most amazing aircraft by the barge full. Not sure if they are still producing the S2, but I can assure you they are still making some awesome planes. http://www.pilot-rc.com/Index.aspx

    I want another "BIG" bipe too. Maybe a 40ish%'er. But then anything with a round cowl would be awesome. LOL... LOVE my 260 a heap....But them darn round cowlers have got me hooked.

    Very pretty plane Smitty. Congratulations...!!!! There is a lot to be said about those floaty, big round cowled sports car planes huh? I want another Yak too. But I am looking at the big brother to my 40% Pilot. Tony makes a 55% in the same scheme as my little guy. hee hee....

    The I'm NOT going out flying thread.

    So I hear (read) all you guys woes of not flying. I feel I must add to the "Misery Loves Company" group. Personally, I would fly at 30 degrees if the sun is out and the wind is not blowing. But ha! HA!!!! I say....that ain't even in the ball park for use right now. Average of 16 above during the...

    Calling all Pitts, Stearman, Waco, big bipes not dreadfully slow. 70"+ws

    Being new to the 2 winged group, I am starting to see the inner beauty of bipes. So much so that I am truly and seriously contemplating a very large Pitts in the future. I voted yes on the poll and would definitely attend such an event if it were close enough. Not so sure the turn out would be...

    Does it ever bother your conscience that you are passing off a "BRAND NEW" plane as a "REPAIRED" plane? HMMMM????? :laughing: Seriously Earle, that ole' girl looks as good as new. Hard to imagine she was almost "firewood" (sacrifice to the plane gods). Can't wait to hear how she re-maidens...
