Very nice. What kind of milling tools are you using to make the parts?

Welcome to the site! When do you think it will be ready to fly and where are you located?
Nice build but one word comes to mind for a big Herc'.........jato?

I watched the progress on the B36. Just incredible. And now, he pulls this out! Unreal!

Wow.. now this makes me feel like my "builds" are kinda like a "paint by the numbers" painting! Thanks for sharing, and keep us posted with progress.

Very cool! A C130 is my all time favorite bird. Love the sound of those things on a high speed worm burner.
Did the B36 fly?

Thanks all for the great comments.

The B-36 is on hold as my wing deflected to much in testing and binded the 6 flaps. The wing is being redesigned.

As where I am from, Fishers IN.

As far as Jato, no room as I am creating scale air-deflectors for the troops jumping out the side doors.
