    Xpress does a BANSHEE build...

    I've taped it back together for now so it should hold up just fine, but will definitely be ordering a new canopy as soon as I can.

    Xpress does a BANSHEE build...

    Made a lot of progress last night. Wings and elevators are all 100% ready for flight, servo and all. I like to do the method that Pilot RC suggest for cutting out aileron servo pockets, makes things look cleaner on the bottom side. Ironed down inside, keep it all in place. I ran my iron...

    Aerobeez "BANSHEE" 91" Slick build

    Alrighty, did more work to the airplane tonight, we're just a handful of steps away from liftoff! I wanted to detail how I cut out the covering on the aileron servo pockets. This is how Pilot RC also tells you to do it and quite frankly, I like this method a lot. Has a very clean appearance...

    Yes, we said go lower and slower so he went as low and slow as the airplane could possibly go!!!! :eek::oblong::laughing: I'm sure @Joe Hunt already has it repaired and ready to huck again.

    NEW AEROBEEZ 78" Slick 540!!!

    I was planning on fitting my Hacker A60-18L to it since it's basically a 50cc power plant, running it on either 10s or 12s 4400 packs. But I have a Banshee to finish first :D

    Aerobeez 40% extra prototype!?!?!

    You don't want to freeze your enemies as you fly by them? You know, spray them with water and it freezes as soon as it touches them... :rolleyes:

    Improving Video Footage

    For that price, if it does as it says, it's a bargain!!!! I've been shooting more videos lately.. Hmm... Does the software also allow basic editing like trimming clips, fitting music, or titles/credits? I could definitely use a software that was all inclusive!

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

    Worked on my 91" Slick last night some more. Got one elevator half ready for flight, now I just need to finish the rest of the airplane now :oblong::cool:

    Xpress does a BANSHEE build...

    Got some more time in the shop last night and got the right wing panel all hinged up, still have to seal it though. Also managed to get one elevator half ready to go. I get the control horns test fitted in place prior to gluing them to ensure they center up over the hinge line properly. I...

    AEROWORKS - New Engine Line up!

    Most use normal standoffs and cut a large enough hole in the firewall to fit the carb through. The carb being inside of the fuse actually sucks in a lot more stable air pressure and helps engine performance. Nobody has seemed to mention anything about a weakened firewall.

    Aerobeez "BANSHEE" 91" Slick build

    Some more forward progress tonight. First up, I got the right wing panel/aileron all hinged up. I will get it sealed tomorrow. For the control horns, you always want to make sure you cut away the covering from below this little spreader plate. I cut out the slots for the control horns, then dry...

    AEROWORKS - New Engine Line up!

    I would like to, but space is a question. Fitting a 25%, a 30%, 2 35%, and a few small parkflyers has its own challenges, not sure of a 40%+ would fit!! :eek:

    AEROWORKS - New Engine Line up!

    The 180 is a BEAST of an engine. It'll yank a 40lb airplane around like a rag doll, if I ever go 40% there will be no other engine choice for that airplane. Joe Mitchell is also a super nice guy and is always willing to help out with any problems you have. :thumbup:
