    3D Restoring The Yak

    Thank you Kelly. It's been a lot of work. More than I had originally thought. But it's coming around. Very pleased for you on your maiden. Hopefully that new girl will be flying for many joyous flights.

    3D Restoring The Yak

    I managed to get a little more done today. Just the main wings to strip now. Cleaned up more of the inside of the fuse. Making progress but still a long ways to go.

    You know I will. Man, I sure wish I were there to watch in person. Anxiously waiting.

    Thanks... don't know about that. Still have a ton to do. Really not wanting to hurry. I really want to make this a 10.

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    Nice progress Roger. Everytime I visit your thread, I get all jacked up and think to myself, "Hey, I want that on one of my planes". LOL...nice stuff. Really nice stuff. My pal in the desert over the pond bought two motors last week. One which is a Kolm. Man that 310 is a beast.

    3D Restoring The Yak

    What a really fine day today was. Nothing but peace and quiet and plenty of lovin's from all my kids. I took advantage later this afternoon to attack the Yak. Hmmm....Yak attack? Attack the Yak...!! :laughing:I decided to get the broken fin sheeting issue taken care of. I had a little more...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    Whoo hoo!:banana-dance:Randy the man @Spats Hinton saved me. I realized I had 11 servo horns from a previous order from Pilot. Which left me a mere 5 short. Enter stage left, Randy with exactly the amount I needed. So no need to place an order and I can continue working on the Monster Yakster...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    Just for you David. Lol... Came home Wednesday morning and slept in late today. This weekend is going to be a very productive weekend. Fuse is stripped, rudder and right stab/elevator stripped. I will be changing the servo locations so a quick order to the "MAN", Tony Tan at Pilot for a...

    Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

    It does have Bowman rings. But I'm not convinced they are making a huge difference. Then again, both my 111's have been running Bowman rings since they were new. Both turning Falcon 28x10's around 6700 static. And throttle response is like a Ferrari. Don't know if it's the rings, the Falcon...

    Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

    Don't believe everything you hear. I've seen first hand the impeccable dependability and absolutely top shelf performance of the DLE 222. Only reason I bought the 3dub 212 for the Yak, was because I wanted mostly to compare it to my sons 222. In all things being equal, the 212 should spank his...

    Qualify for Pilot free wood?

    Oh yeah....I know the one you are talking about Kelly. That would be my pal Nate, "Flarpy" and the once well known "Ugly Betty". She was..."WAS" being the key word here.... a duplicate of my "Baby". In fact, I had Nate handle "Baby" and he was very gentle with her. He said she reminded him of...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    Made a mad dash from Northern Idaho this afternoon. I just had to see what the post man brought me. All kinds of toys. Wow, Christmas before Thanksgiving. Lol I'd heard the weather should be favorable for a little Purple Edge beating tomorrow. I am however going to make time to play with the...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Heading home from Northern Idaho in a couple hours. Pretty certain there is a most bodacious Purple 37% "PILOT" Edge that needs a complete and thorough beating. Seriously in need of opening a can of whoop ass on that ride when I get home.:banana-dance::banana-dance:
