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

Precision Aerobatics says they are not the father.

I'm thinking it's an older ExtremeFlight or 3D Hobby Shop

I think your right it being an Extreme Flight. First time I went to Perry and met Chris he was shining one up with Eagle One wax. It was red and white and had the Aero Shell stickers on it like the one in your picture. I believe it was a 36" wingspan. Was the start of his EXP series.

looks beautiful, is that your own design?

Yes it one of my Own. Drew it up in Acad and used all the information that I could gather off the GSN site. Many off the GSN members had a hand in it and all we’re very helpful in directing me in the right direction. ( please I will not specifically name names because you always forget someone and that causes some difficulties). But yes I could not have done it without the great people at GSN. If flies like crap then it will not be my fault names will be disclosed. JUST KIDDING.

@Bartman You may have stumbled on to one of the original proto-types. I'm trying to recall my conversation with him all those years ago but I do remember him saying that the plane (the one that looks just like the one in your pic) was a proto and not for sale. He said a 42" is coming in two schemes (red/white and blue yellow) I found a pic of the blue yellow for you to compare......

I saw that photo today when I was trying to figure it out. The other plane that the guy has is an ExtremeFlight Aspera, it's a small electric pattern plane. They both have motors and servos, I'm not sure the guy is the original builder/pilot but it's a good deal so I told him I'll take them both.

That would be crazy if it's an original prototype. Thanks for the follow up 'dimes!

I just hope they aren't stolen!

After taking a break......due to new junk servo issues, the Crack Camel is almost ready to fly. Just have to finish up the wiring and check the CG.

MKS servos to the rescue!!

So do we know yet?

Building a couple tiny whoovers for me and a buddy. Just some scrap depron and a blade inductrix will yield a fun little hover craft racer.
