    The 3DRCForums -Discuss Anything Thread-

    Drug out the 107" Edge today to fix some covering woes from yesterday. Worked it for half an hour to get to this point. Good enough, the wing will cover most of it. Gotta love Chinakote. Cut out all of the vent holes. This airplane will have mufflers instead of canisters...

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

    Well today I pulled the Edge out of the shop since I was feeling cramped and got to work on that nasty wrinkled covering.. Didn't get a before pic but this was after working it for about half an hour. Most of this will be covered by the wing so I'm not going to worry about it anymore. Cut...

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

    Tightened up some more covering on the airplanes tonight. Was just about to get the last wrinkle out of the fuselage on my Edge when all of a sudden the wrinkle turned into a nice sized hole. I didn't even get it that hot o_O Looks like I have some a cuttin' and a splicin' to do now...

    Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

    I hate it when that happens. I'll go in to re-glue a stringer down and before I know it the fuselage is naked with several new parts cut and ready to go in... :banana-dance: Pink??? My 120 is as silver as ever, no hint of pink at all. I personally have put almost 10 gallons through it, and...

    This won't help our cause at all....

    Well it's one thing if it's a rogue operator flying without permission, but this was a TV crew that was operating with permission. Granted they weren't supposed to be flying over the course, but they weren't just in there nilly willy.. Still doesn't leave any better of a taste in my mouth..

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

    We have our neighbors directly to the south of us that are always causing a ruckus. They have a couple of V8 jet boats with open headers that point directly at my house and they USED to like to fire them up right about 9:30-10pm and rev the snot out of them. Always getting so hammered they...

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

    Spent more time with the heat gun last night on the 107" Pilot Edge, and my Aerobeez Slick Pro. Getting that covering all pristine and ready for abuse :way_to_go: Looks like I might have a few days coming up of workshop time if this rain persists...

    Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

    What I do is I remove the wing bolts and keep them in my hand and do one wing panel at a time- it's difficult for me to do another wing panel when my hand is full ;) Then I double check before the canopy goes on. I'm habitual with stuff like that, it's difficult for me to forget.

    Are you going to register with the FAA? Cast Your Vote!

    The question is, how will this 400 feet be determined within accuracy if the aircraft does not contain altitude sensing equipment on it?

    The I'm going out flying thread 2016

    Well... it was a little wet last night, but not enough to shut down the field. So 3d shenanigans ensued!! Burned a gallon between the last 2 days. I'd say a weekend well spent.

    Went down into the shop and dusted off some of the Pilot 107" Edge parts, cut out the slots in the elevators for the servo arms and cut out the servo bays in each wing panel. Getting it prepped for equipment.
