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

    My folks are here on a 3 month mission trip during the slow winter months, and I came down to spend a month or two with them. I've done some looking and it looks like they have a nice paved strip and decent Rc club here but it's 3 1/2 hours away.

    90" Carbon Cub

    The only big thing in my mind, just looking at the pics, is that tiny cowl. They did some fancy cutting to make that little 15 cc fit and still look decent. Not sure what it would take to fit a 20 in it.

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    Looks great Roger! Could you take an automotive brake pad and machine some pieces out of the friction material they use? Might be a bit tricky, I don't know. Just a thought I had when I saw this vid.

    I've got a hammock in the shade. It's 75° where I'm at in Nicaragua right now.

    Peak Models 32% Extra 330 SC

    I'm running a 25x8w falcon on mine and it literally rips that thing. I'm wanting a 26x8 or 25x9. I am running ES pipes on mine though. I know lots of guys run a 25x8w on stock muffs though too. I'm afraid a 24" would scream like a banshee. [emoji3]

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

    No!! I did it in a well equipped shop on a '03 dodge pickup and they were an absolute bear!

    I want that big one! [emoji106] It makes those little ones look tiny.

    70cc PAU Extra 300SP build...

    I'd like to know your opinion of both planes once you've got some time on this one because @ericrs has the PAU and I have the EF.

    70cc PAU Extra 300SP build...

    That's gonna be a rocket! My EF extra with the same motor ways in at 21 lbs with headers and ES pipes. What size of batts are you running? I bought mine used set up with a pair of 3300mah packs and they seem a bit much for the 3-4 flights I usually get in in an average evening.

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    Will rubber not grab a little quick or be to sticky? I guess if it's a rubber/cork material then it should work then. I'm really enjoying all the attention to the little details such as these brakes.

    Maybe I've missed it somewhere, but what are you planning to use for brake shoe material?

    3D Restoring The Yak

    If I were to guess I'd say I was looking down the hood of a t800. Right?

    I was just reading earlier today on a thread on rcu that due to EPA they had to change their formula and since then it hasn't worked as nice.

    Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

    Man that's going to be some project. Are you doing a different scheme?

    GP Giant Big Stick

    I'd say from my experience with that engine that 20x10 is going to be a bit much. I ran a xoar 19x8 wood and also a Falcon cf 19x8 and those were great props for 3D and regular flying.
