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

Get me a little more information on the airframe Kelly, I am sure I can find it. The main distributor of UltraCote from across the pond called me last year and supplied me with the complete list of "ALL" UltarCote colors. Past and present.

I would imagine a quick call to Extreme Flight would enlighten one to the right color and where one could obtain some.
My .02$

All is solved. The owner showed up with a roll of silver and a roll of deep blue. Now I can get-er'done!
FYI...Downloaded the manual and it did not have the numbers normally found!?
Anyway all is good.

Guess it's my turn to add to the "What did you do in your workshop tonight" thread. Apparently customs has mine, (as well as so many others) PAU aircraft held up, and since I made yet another motor change decision on the Sukhoi, I decided I needed to get some irons warmed up on the coals. The Bowman rings for my new DLE 111 that will be going on the PAU arrived today, so no better time than the present to get them installed. Rings on...DONE. Next I decided since I picked up the most awesome set of large ProFlow canisters, it was time to breathe a little more life into the already massively powerful 157CS. Changed out the 3W L80 front dumps for the Proflow cans on the 260. Also picked up a 3W 3D CF prop. (31.5x 8-14) Not sure if I am going to use it on the 3dub or save if for the GP EVO 176 that is going on the Sukhoi. (Yes, this is the final decision and choice for that plane) Lol.... Either way, I am sure I have plenty of large CF props on hand to please my likings.

Tomorrow I pick up my trailer from the factory. YAY..finally done. Then home to start the 260 and see how she performs with the ProFlows.

OK, That's it! I coming to live with you!.

Damn! Why didn't I think of that!? That would require rational thought and intellect.

Last night I repaired my rudder for the last time. I will not let my ego take over and do rudder touches anymore! 4 servos and 6 repairs later I really really mean it this time. Really.

Nice repair! The repair part isn't so bad, it's just your time and a few bucks in supplies, it's the servos that hurt! $$$$$
