    Best vehicle to transport Giant Scale

    Plus the Dodge is a little sportier than the Chrysler. :lol2: If you can use the words sporty and minivan together.

    Best vehicle to transport Giant Scale

    If you can stand a Mini Van the Stow-in-go seats in the Dodge are hard to beat since they store completely flat IN the floor, but come back out ready for use in seconds.

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Yesterday I got all the cloth and the first coat of resin on the fuselage. Here are a few pics. If you want a more detailed account of how I did it I posted it here in the Glassing and Painting thread. http://giantscalenews.com/threads/glassing-and-painting-techniques.1536/page-25#post-69354

    Glassing and Painting techniques

    Yesterday I started the glassing process on the fuselage of my scratch build project. I began by making a stand that holds the fuse in the wing tube hole that holds it up off the table and makes it so I can turn the fuse. I can also just grab the engine box and tube socket and flip the fuse over...

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    I'm planning on glassing the fuselage today. I made up a stand that goes through the wing tube hole and keeps the sides off the table, plus I can spin it around to work on it. When I need to flip it I just grab the engine box and the wing tube socket and I can flip it without touching the...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Last Sunday a friend and I went flying and it was 50, overcast, damp, and windy. This Sunday it's supposed to be 91, humid and of course windy. We've only had one dry, not windy Sunday so far this year and that was in March. :mad:

    To drain or not?

    Race fuel has an amazing shelf life. And it make the car smell so good too!

    To drain or not?

    I think this is one of those things where individual results my vary. A lot depends on your oil, the formulation of your gas, length of time stored, and environment you stored it in. I used to run the gas out of mine every time. I store mine in my family room, and I was afraid of the smell...

    Can you believe this guy?

    Add to the fact that there are almost always at least three sides to any story. My side, your side, and the truth.;)

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    I've been doing some filling and sanding on the fuse using the lightweight drywall joint compound. I'm almost done with that so I'm hoping to glass the fuselage this weekend. My .5 ounce fiberglass cloth came today, and I was pretty disappointed to see it was folded in a bag instead of wound on...

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    @Alky6 Sorry I missed this. No real reason why I used the milled glass, other than I've been using it since back in the building BVM ducted fan airplane days and I had some here.

    How I feel after a successful Maiden Flight.

    It doesn't help when it auto plays the next video and it has nothing to do with the one you just watched. But you watch it anyway. ;)

    Can you believe this guy?

    It's funny how peoples perception of something like this can be swayed by their previous experiences and interactions with the parties involved. When I read one of the names involved, I took the complainers side instantly. My prior interactions with that individual have me holding a grudge for...

    Terry the way I read it, the person posting this is not the guy looking for cash. He just reposted it here from somewhere else.
