    Multirotors are actually pretty fun to build. Get that thing out and get to work.

    The Spammers are getting out of hand.

    I got rid of about 15 spammers yesterday morning before I had to hit the classroom for drivers meeting and drivers class and then spent plenty of time on track. Sorry if I missed more that may have popped up after that.

    Sport 30% Edge 540 Pete Marshall Plans with Laser Cut Short Kit

    What I'm doing with one of the planes I'm recovering is using latex paint. Just take a piece of scrap covering and put it on some scrap balsa. Take it to lowes and have them mix you up one of the sample paint jars. Only like five bucks. While you there also pick up a can of minwax Polycrylic its...

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

    My brotha used to have a lightning. Badass truck made over 700 at the flywheel. Best he ever got was a 11.70 but he can't drive for heck so that was the biggest problem. Also had lots of other problems as it was a wrecked truck when he bought it.

    Oh and please just say no to the LS swap. If you want a LS motor just buy and older Camero to put it in LOL.

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

    Wow at my local track you only have to have a helmet if you break into the 13's though yes it has to be of a certain rating. Speaking of racing I will be throwing my dads 06 gt around VIR on Saturday. A day of fun on the road course. Only ever ridden in a car out there this will be my first...

    Sweet I promise you she has more in her than that. My dad got my mom an 05 GT when that body style first came out. Only thing that was done to it was a set of flowmasters and a good shifter and I had it running a best of 13.73 on street tires. makes me miss my 89 LX though. 12.32 @ 109mph in the...

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    I have many times considered the Taranis that uses the Frsky protocol and was even giving a good price on one with a bunch of extras but I have so much invested in my futaba gear it keeps steering me away.

    3D Cbarnes 3D Slab Thread

    Ok so to better answer your question. These are the specs on the profile you see in my avatar. Look elsewhere in this thread for more pics and it is the one I'm building three more of currently. It's WCL is actually a littler over 6 as the plane came in around 36-37 ounces over the 33 I have in...

    3D Cbarnes 3D Slab Thread

    Ok sorry if I misled you. I have never flown the AW plane so I do not know how it flys I have just heard bad things about it from the probro site. Guess the biggest thing is the type of flying your looking for when it comes to WCL. I like a nice floaty plane but at the same time I have one slab...

    Electric Power for a 20cc Profile

    I have the same sk motor to go on a 40 size slab that I have a kit for. It's wound for a 6S lipo where as Mikey's is wound for 4S. The buddy I got the motor from said it makes really good power and he has another on one of his planes but I know this one had two broken bolts on the prop adapter...

    Scale World Models 1/3 Super Cub Project

    Wish I could be there to fly it. Me thinks an inverted pass down low on the main flight line would be awesome.
