    3D Cbarnes 3D Slab Thread

    So since I'm constantly building profiles (slabs) I figured I needed to create a thread just for the slabs I build. I will be updating it with pics of my previous builds and will keep it going with all my new slab builds. First up on the new build side of things is a Mojo40 from Swanny House...

    Is expo really needed.

    After attending my first probro yesterday I'm convinced that expo may not really be needed in our planes. It's all in your setup. One guy that was thee let me fly a couple of his planes. If he had not told me I never would have know there was no expo programmed into the radio. He has all his...

    Favorite connectors

    so what's everyone's favorite connector for your foamies and smaller electrics. I used to use nothing but deans connectors but last year a buddy turned me on to EC3 connectors like horizon uses on their stuff. I love em. To me they are easier to connect and disconnect and when it comes to...

    Hucking in the Yard

    Just some of my more recent flying videos. To think this time last year I could barely hover a plane for more than about 5 seconds. If you look closely at the stix27 video you can see where that plane has been repaired at least 3 or 4 times now. Never again will I cover a plane in tissue paper...

    Hmm Little bit of a Copy Cat.

    Seems like that other site is copying Sleepy a bit with his video review. They also seem to trying to do lots of giveways that you enter by posting as much as possible. http://www.GiantScaleNews.com/forums/showthread.php?t=92384

    3D 30% Cap 232 From Plans

    Ok so here goes. I decided to move my build thread of my Cap 232 over here from that other site. The plane is pretty much complete other than finishing up the plug for the cowl and making parts from it, gluing on the canopy, and finish up the electronics. I have decided I really need to finish...

    Lets See Your Foamy's

    I know this is Giant Scale News but I'm sure most all of us fly foamys so as the title implies lets see your foamy's and any awesome paint jobs you have put on them. I will start this off with a few I have. First pics are of my RC Powers Extra 300. The one with the red LE edge is no more and the...

    My best attempt at 3D

    This is from a while ago so I have gotten a little better. Mind you now I have only been flying for the past three years so I have a long way to go before I can be as good as some of you and others I know I will never be as good as (Colton Clark to name one).

    30% Cap 232 Scratchbuilt from plans

    This is my 30% Cap 232 I have been working on for a couple years now. It will be powered by a DLE 55. Right now it is looking like it will come in around 17 pounds. Pretty much the only thing I have to do on it is finish making the plug for my cowl and pull some parts off of it. Then I can glue...
