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

    That is a bit heavy for a mojo25 but it will still fly fine. Drop back to something like a Hacker A2020 outrunner spinning a 10x6 GWS prop and a 1300mah 3S and it will wake up. That’s what’s on this little cap I built which is same basic size as the mojo25. It weighs a touch over 18 oz and is a...

    Thanks for all the kind words everyone. She truly is a blessing. It’s amazing how quickly you can fall in love with someone.

    Yes it’s been a long wait but worth it in the end. She is a blessing to us and we will be forever greatful to the birth parents who chose us to take care of this little bundle of joy.

    Yeah I know. A buddy said it in an email that I need to build her a trainer to learn to fly on. Does a 55cc 3D profile count as a trainer?????? LOL

    So to fill everyone in I will be away from building for a while. My wife and I tried for many years to have kids on our own and after my wife has had to endure way to many injections for all the infertility meds she had to be on we gave up on that path and moved on the the prospect of adoption...

    I have a one off scheme I could share and I promise no one has ever done. But I fear I would get banned if I posted it.

    Order yourself one and get to building.

    If you want to build a kit this one I got is great. Good price and the fit and finish is amazing. I got it with their recommended motor, folding prop, and servos. It has a crazy fast climb rate but will slow down to a crawl.

    In doing that might I recommend this. Looking at the fuse all the vertical supports are CNC cut and it remains one piece. Instead make notches in the outer rails of the fuse and lay the vertical supports down in the cut files. It will be a little more work to build but will be well worth it in...

    Nice. That’s a serious unit. I’m just wanting a Inventables X carve for hobby stuff.

    I just looked at a couple of youtube videos and really just started playing around with it. I think I'm gonna download the student version of Inventor as I here its easier. I wont have any special machinery in my shop. Most I may have one day is a manual mill and lathe and hopefully at some...

    Decided to play around with the 3D side of CAD. Still have lots to learn but this is a start.

    Yeah proper insulation under it and when I do it I will be running all the water lines in it to make it a heated floor. My old boss had the electric radiant floor heat in a few rooms of his house. Kept his house warmer and used less electricity to run it. Being radiant heat it actually heats up...
