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

Gonna be selling some airplanes this winter season......

Most are not giant scale, but 3 of which are, that I have here right now.

There is also a GP Super Stearman with a G45. As well as a Cub with an Enya R120 4 stroker, which I will keep, and the same way with a small electric trainer.

Have a total for 40+ glow engines, including a 60cc OPS twin cylinder and a Saito 182 twin with twin plugs and carbs. Several 72 MHz radio systems as 2 2.4 GHzs.

Than the final 2 pics are of all the airplanes on my loft. And this is not all of it.

Woah that's a lot of glow. Been thinking about trying some. Post them up some time.

Yes post them up. @JAG really needs either an OS 46ax or an OS 55ax to bolt onto a 40 sized profile.

Lots of Super Tiger stuff. Not the cheap Chinese ones. The real deal, the Italian ones!

 

[BalsaDust]

Gotcha. Yeah I tried a super tiger on a pipe. Didn't have the throttle response like a good ole OS.

 

[Bunky.F.Knuckle]

Wrong header length. Every Tiger I had that was piped, wicked fast on response.

Hey @Bunky.F.Knuckle,
Do you have any Blue Heads?

 

[BalsaDust]

Maybe so. I set mine up just like I have my OS 46ax set up and turned a 12x4 prop as well.

I never liked large diameter/low pitch props.

I had a Tower Hobbies Profile of the Extra 300, 20 years ago, or so. Had an old Como (Super Tiger) 40, until it lost all compression. Ran stock muffler and a 10x6. It was more of a sport plane to me than anything.

I guess the difference is I was trying to run it on a 3D profile so the larger diameter prop was nice for getting air over a larger portion of the wing

Fired up the iron for awhile today. Got the bottom of one wing almost done on the viper. Its going a bit slow, because I got busy with work so not much time to work on it.
