    All I managed to do was cover the rudder of the kadet.

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    Yeah I learned it when working on my cap back when we still used that site that shall not be named.

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    Works really well. Like you said with what your using much better than hot water. I just spray whatever side of the sheet will be the outer surface and good to go.

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    Never used straight ammonia always just used windex that has the ammonia in it.

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    That's impressive that it will flex that much. It's sometimes hard to get 1/16" balsa to flex like that.

    I don't have the time or knowledge to mix my own fuel. Will just stick with a gallon of Omega 15% when needed.

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

    LOL yeah well I'm out in the boonies so they really can't do anything about it but I usually try to play nice. Still not near as bad as them running hopped up dirt bikes on the track they built in the middle of the day when I'm trying to sleep since I work nights. I actually do like the smells...

    Yes nothing beats the smell of a nitro motor.

    Wow spending some money on glow there. I have only used about 3/4 of a gallon all year this year. I need to get out and fly more. Found I can fly my 40 size profiles in my front yard but I don't think the neighbor appreciates a piped 46 or 55 two stroke nitro engine at 7:30AM.

    Wow proof that terry once flew a slimer. Though I love the sound of my piped OS55ax nothing beats the sound of a 4 stroke.

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

    Give me all the hard times you want I can take it. What I think is really cool is the little edge I built. There are quite a few bro's saying it and the bigger 56" span version should be kitted by one of the kit cutters on the bro site. Just the thought that something I worked on might become a...

    Oh but Terry don't get me wrong I still like the probro airfoils as well. I actually really dig how floaty my Sbach45 is.

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

    Yeah I follow what your saying. The EE series of planes that wrong way carries has a more traditional airfoil. I have flown the EE50cc and it's fun but it's not super loose. That's why the one I'm gonna do is going with a lot less wing area to help get rid of some of the float it has. I learned...

    I will build one of these for myself at some point with no dihedral and stuff a dle20 on the nose. The motor is just what was on it when it was brought to me to repair and recover. It's a thunder tiger 46 and yes it has a heli head. Not sure if it's just the head of the entire motor is off a heli.

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

    It's using the same airfoil that's on the plane in my avatar except it will be quad taper not tritaper. NACA0015 at the root transitioning to a NACA0018 at the tip. Acts the same as what we call zippering the LE of making it sharp at the root and more blunt at the tip. Makes the root of the wing...
