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

Damn I'm hungry
It should. It was nice and solid. If you watched the FB vid you could tell I was having difficulty turning the plane. Almost hit the power pole. Had switched to high rate and buried the elevator stick just to get it to barely turn or flare when landing. Everything else was fine (rudder, aileron, throttle). Take off was NICE though!
Pretty misleading huh? lol
Looks like it'll work better than factory.

Been working on the Behemoth "dub" 212 4 cylinder Yak the last couple of nights. Since I jacked 7 servos from it while making a decision on the engine. (They went in the Pitts) I bought all new servos and have been installing them and getting them tuned in. Good Lord, I need a bigger house. Or fewer monster planes. Naaaa....bigger house. Lol. Elevators and right wing done with only the the left wing to complete. I will easily have that task complete tonight. Last step...baffle Those beautiful jugs. Charge batts. and fly. I am beyond excited this time around.

Smaller house. BIG WORKSHOP!

Yahoo...all servos in and programmed. All that is left now is to baffle the engine and toss the cowl on. It just seems like a crying shame to have to cover that gorgeous 212. Personally, I could kick back and look at it all night long.

Being I'm the "resident expert" at admiration...How bout I come and get that 212 and everything attached to it :).

Something tells me I'm getting "one- uped" here in a bit :cautious:.
Umm, lemme think about that for a second. Uh...ok. But, ya gotta take all the bills she ran up too. Heck I don't need no wife or girl friend. These big girls here are emptying my wallet as fast as any woman I've known.

Yes, but they don't ride your ass! :dancing-chicken:
Well, not entirely true. I'm always catching fall out from one of them. Example: Catherine (my Sukhoi) complains when I take Jennifer/Baby (my 260) out. "Are you taking her out again? When is it my turn?" Or Madeline (the Behemoth Yak) "Sheesh, are you ever going to get me out again?" Course we now have the additions of the new Pilot Edge and the Pitts going round and round. I try to appease them all. I'm like one man. I can only do so much. It's a constant battle at my hangar. Tell me again how they don't ride my ass?! Lol
