Re: Herr Pitts Special

HUUUUUH! You finally got one! Seeing this means I'll have to dig my kit out (rather large box buried under a BIG stack of smaller kits). Might even start to build it... ;) How are you planning to power it? Yeah Pete, finally! I was actually given this one by a guy here that sells kits after he hear...

Re: Californian

Still an impressive job, Tim! I'm still kicking myself for not getting more info on Antonin Alfery's models in November when I spoke to him. What I hadn't fully realized was the real lack of time as a first time "competitor". Did a (pre-requisite) "bed test" show promise? I have ...

Re: Event announcement: International Indoor Fly In 2016

Regarding video files... I''m still having "save" issues with my confuser. The Tekkie was able to get most of the related problems alleviated, but a complete fix would have surpassed the cost of a new machine - which I presently cannot afford. I plan to try doing the video work on my buddy...

Re: One Night In Jail

I'm not familiar with the Legal Eagle rules, but I also see a few spots where some weight might be spared. How tight did you twist the 1/16th? If you have a rubber stripper, 0.075 might be a usable size. Is the plastic prop mandatory for the class?

A sweet looking plane that flies nicely!

Re: Peanut floatplane, Albatros W4

Tommy, have you had a chance to do any work with the Tengujo? I got some 8.8g from a shop in Germany a few years ago, using it on the Gipsy Moth pistachio that I had at the IIFI (didn't fly). I found that the tissue did not shrink very much - if at all. Actually, for the micro model, not a bad trait...
