    Weeks Solution

    Robert, I have talked to a gentleman in Ohio who was good friends with Miles Reed who actually sold the plans and cut kits for most, if not all of Miles' planes at one time. The problem is that the email address on his catalog is no longer valid and I have learned that the gentleman is no...

    Hey Rob, Just went looking for an update on this thread, and I had to go to page 5 to find it. . . . . . . :eek:. Of course I don't have allot of room to talk because I saw my Laser thread on page 3. . . . . .:laughing:. I hope your lack of progress is because you've been too busy flying to...

    Weeks Solution

    @acerc, There are too many differences between the Hostetler Pitts in your picture and the Solution X for a builder of my caliber to be able to adapt it. Thanks for trying though. . . . . :big_yes:

    Hello @Paco Ritter, I thought the pictures of your Solution looked familiar. Then I looked at your name. . . . . . . :laughing:. Welcome to GSN. There are allot of AWESOME members on this site who are more than willing to help someone out. This is a much more "user friendly" site than RCU...

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Hey Doug, That big Comp ARF Sukhoi is AWESOME. . . . . . . :yesss:, but I can certainly understand your reluctance to fly it. That plane is so high above my skill level that I get altitude sickness just thinking about it. . . . . . :laughing:. It's a shame your friend doesn't get a chance to...

    Scale 25% Krier Kraft build, a tribute to grampa.

    Hey @Alky6, This would make an AWESOME first plan built plane. Biplane aren't really more difficult, you just have to build twice as many wings. . . . . :laughing:. Plus, you have @Bipeguy03 and the rest of the guys on this site who have far more building knowledge than you and I put...

    Dude, You need to charge for the drawings. You are putting ALLOT of hard work into drawing them and making sure they aRE right. . . . :big_yes:

    Scale 25% Krier Kraft build, a tribute to grampa.

    Hey @Bipeguy03, I was just thinking (I know that's dangerous. . . . :laughing:). If you have a place near you who does reprographics, it will probably be cheaper and easier to have your plans scanned to a PDF file. That way you won't have to worry about rolling up a bunch of drawings and...

    Turbines are cool...

    You guessed it. Yesterday was the first day off in over 3 weeks and the wind was blowing a bloody gale. . . . :face-palm:. Todd is much nicer, but I tore the Monocote on the bottom of me Kaos wing last night so I have nothing to fly. Go figure.

    Turbines are cool...

    I have actually only seen one Jet fly. It was at our club field the first or second year I was a member. I remember thinking it was pretty cool but our runway isn't that long and when the jet landed, it went beyond the length of the runway and the nose gear collapsed. Since then, our club has...

    Hey @Snoopy1 I think they are under the spark plug. Take a look a few posts back and you can see the other end of the sensor wire.

    I know I'm giving away my age, but I've been doing drawings for over 36 years and I've used more of those brick erasers than I care to remember. I felt like I won the lottery when the office bought all of us electric erasers . . . . . . :laughing:.

    Sport 50CC AMR STICK THREAD

    Just in case there are a few stragglers who haven't abandoned this sinking ship, I'll post this update. I still haven't touched my Stick (or any other plane for that matter). Work still has me tied up and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. This month is hopeless and July...

    Scale 25% Krier Kraft build, a tribute to grampa.

    Hey @Bartman, Can someone nominate a build thread to be a "Feature Thread"? This thread will not go as quickly as someone building an ARF or even a kit, but the attention to detail and the drawing work done so far is more than worthy IMHO. Besides, when it's done, it will be an incredible...

    Share your ideas for safe pre-flight and flying

    I have heard of people using a paint roller, but I have never tried it. The last time I used a chicken stick was on a brand new Saito 180. That SOB kicked back so hard, it knocked the stick right out of my hand. Something I've noticed at my club since the advent of 2.4 gHz radios is that most...

    Share your ideas for safe pre-flight and flying

    Great thread @Wacobipe, I belong with the group of glove wearers when I start my gas planes. It only took one 24x10 carbon fiber prop strike on one of my older 3Dub 60's to teach me that lesson. My fingers throbbed for the rest of the day. . . . . :omg:. I also wear a neck strap. It's...

    Hey @Bipeguy03, The last thing you need to worry about is being slow. Building a plane with the memories of your grandfather is priceless. I know it's going to turn out AWESOME. . . . . :big_yes:. So just take your sweet time and enjoy it. David
