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

    Just gotta peal a couple small straggler pieces of covering off around the vertical stab and it's ready to get recovered. Ended up replacing a lot of sheeting and re gluing half the joints in it but it's nice and tight again. Not bad for a 20 something year old airframe.

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

    A probro buddy is actually helping me design a 50cc slab. Should fly a lot different from other 50cc slabs out there. Most in that size are around 2000sq in of wing area and this one will be around 1500-1600 I think and have foiled ailerons.

    I still playing with the whipit. Would like to find somewhere that had a little bit of a slope so I could try catching more thermals.
