    IMAC Carden Pro 124 Build, My Dream Plane

    Thank You, orthobird, I have lots of pictures from the weekend, I just didn't have time to post them. I just finished both fuse sides and they are like a mirror image of each other, I built the second one on top of the first one. More details and pictures tomorrow.

    I fed the 3/8 Sq balsa high density between the block of wood and the sanding wheel, they turn out perfectly square to each other.

    Ok so I'm doing this with my phone so not sure if the pictures will load up. I have the LG plate and the 1/2 inch Har wood gluing. I'll post a picture later, in the meantime I had to get a little creative to join the two longerons together as it requires two pieces. I this by hand the last...

    That is not an ignorant question at all, now, you will have guys using different types of epoxy meaning brand mostly, some want a longer cure time so that the can have time to assemble, it also depend on where you are using it, longer time means it soaks on the wood better giving you a stronger...

    IMAC Carden Pro 124 Build, My Dream Plane

    So, the gluing has started and I’m all smiles this morning. As you guys can see on the first two pics, I was able to take away some weight off the LG plate 1.67oz to be exact. I wish I had done this with the F1 former. The box goes together very well and pretty much squares itself but you still...

    The next few pics are to show what all I’ve done so far, I should be able to start gluing the engine box tonight. Unless I go and play a round with Tiger Woods at Augusta National today. It is a MAD house. I live about 20 minutes from the course.

    IMAC Carden Pro 124 Build, My Dream Plane

    So before I started drilling and boring out holes to save weight, I call DA to verify the centering of the mounting holes, 80mm on the horizontal line and 90mm vertical, once I was done measuring 1000 times I made my first mark. Using a Bridgeport mill with a digital display made things easy...

    IMAC Carden Pro 124 Build, My Dream Plane

    Hello all, I promised if I’d won the sanding blocks I would do a Carden PRO build here, SO Here we go. First apologies for any miss spellings, but the pictures usually speak for themselves. So, about a two years ago I made a HUGE mistake, actually three of them, I flew a Carden Pro with a 150...
