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

[Wild man]

Looking good there AKNick I need to quit doing so much flying and Instructing and get back to finishing some projects. I have in the works. As an AMA IP I just signed up 3 new Students today. That gives me one free year of AMA dues so far this year.

In the shop finishing up the wiring in the profile. When ever I build a plane always need to make up a number of wiring harness and or change plugs. Been looking for some power plugs for one of my larger planes and was looking at the AN150 connectors with spark arrest. Does anyone use them or have info on these connectors, they do look interesting.

Went over to my brothers house and picked up one of three E-Flite 1.2 m Turbo Otter's, he recently ordered to assemble tonight, and weather permitting fly it tomorrow. he really did not know weather he wanted to do that mentioned to me it was like letting the Neighbor borrow something and never get it back LOL!!!!!

While assembling the Turbo Otter I took a short break to add this to my Air Tractor. Seems like every time I get back from flying it I add some more scale features

Well made some changes to my 150 it is an engine without a cowl and I have always been afraid that the propeller would throw up some dirt into the carburetor so it has always had an air filter on the engine. But now the air filter is removed and new intake installed this will give me few additional rpm. Because I know when I installed the filter I lost almost 200 rpm.

I have had Velocity stacks on all my large 3W's and DA's they are really the ticket

Paint is complete and got the spar glued into the elevator. Maybe I will have an assembled airframe by the end of the week.

My Brother came over and had me assemble Two of the new E-flite 1.2 m Twin Turbo Otter. Went out early this morning and test flew the first one he gave to his son today and I just finished up the second one now they are a nice flying little Twin, but I like my E-1500 Twin Cargo plane better.

Just finished Programming, adjust control services, adjust steering and balancing. My Brother is very particular about balancing so I went ahead and laterally balance it too. For all this he gave me a 64mm EDF Free Wing F-86 Sabre Now I will have to burn some Midnight oil and get it done LOL!!!!
