    Joe Nall 2016 = QUIET!!!

    Maybe we're looking at this all wrong. Since we're all addicted to RC airplanes maybe we can get special status that the addiction is a disease from the government. And if we don't hear prop rip we get depressed. If celebrities get to take dogs onto airplanes for "emotional support" and we're...

    Will drilling a hole in carbon tubes weaken them?

    The blind nuts were epoxied inside the tube. I added milled fiberglass powder to the epoxy to make sure it stayed put. To locate them I put it together and drilled through the stab hole into the tube till it barely went through both sides of the tube. That way I could use a long bolt that...

    Will drilling a hole in carbon tubes weaken them?

    I did the stab on my Carf Extra by gluing blind nuts in the carbon tube. But on those tubes the hole was very near the end, so I wasn't very worried about the tube breaking.

    The most annoying sounding things at our field most of the time are the warbirds. Loud, wide open all the time, running bad, popping and snorting. But I still like them. ;)

    :LOL_gif: No, as a matter of fact I'm not sure I've ever heard one of his planes at full throttle. He seems to be a low and slow guy for the most part.

    Joe Nall 2016 = QUIET!!!

    There is no doubt about that. We have a guy at the field flying some mid engine pusher electric thing that rips the prop so bad it will make your ears bleed. All that while going at a speed that's about a fast walk. He of course thinks he has the perfect prop.:msn_slap:
