Can someone tell me what this one is used for? Thanks! Also. @Xpress is this even worth keeping around? I don’t have a programmer yet. This one seems dated but new. HFP-10- AKNick

The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread
nope, there was a CG chipmunk mostly built that someone took though. There was a box for plans of a 87" Chipmunk... no Idea the MFGR. Just looked online and I cannot find a 87" chipmunk. They had a garage sale this morning. Don't think the kits were looked at too hard. The grandson said they...- AKNick

Funny... I wasn’t planning on it. I stayed there and helped clean up with them. Threw away a bunch of stuff that I knew was worthless. They said if you see anything else just take it. I took the Astro-Hog ha ha ha!- AKNick

The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread
Thanks for the input guys. Your thoughts are on par with what I was thinking. Pretty much going to have to give them away on dollars. I’ve already been looking on RCG to find anything of value and really the Ikons and the Aerocoups are the largest dollar items at $250 IF someone wanted to buy...- AKNick

I've done both, and prefer the canopy glue because it cleans up better and has a harder hold than clear silicone. Because silicone has a rubberish feel when it's cured, when wiping down your plane with a towel will stick to it and rub it off potentially. You could fill larger gaps with silicone...- AKNick

AJ Laser 230z 73" Build Thread
Just for a scale reference. The mountain to the right is a 4,000ft peak. The Mendenhall Glacier is to the left of that. I am very close to sea level. I do take the view for granted from time to time...- AKNick

AJ Laser 230z 73" Build Thread
VIDEO! After the years this assembly thread has been posted, My maiden video was terrible... my wife tried but I couldn't edit enough to post (bless her heart).
