    Probably not going to make it to midnight, will do the drawing first thing in the morning and post it as soon as it's ready. I found a random number generator at Random.org so we'll be using that based on a final tally of the entries. Odds of winning are pretty high with 102 entries so far...

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

    weird camera angle? got three flights in. have to replumb the tank, make a few ultracote repairs, and fix one gear pant that split. other than that and the fact that she's a little nose heavy it flew great and was a hoot with the Zenoah GT-80 that it came with. very good match actually but...

    1:1 P-51 Mustang takes up residence at Triple Tree

    Some of you guys have probably already seen the photos but what's the story? As I understand it there's a full scale P-51 Mustang now residing at Triple Tree Aerodrome, home of the world famous Joe Nall event. Photos? More on the story? Who's got the scoop and the photos to prove it??

    OS GT-15cc Gas Engine, Wins Innovation of the Year from M.A.N.

    nevertheless it's pretty cool that OS designed a gas engine that uses a glow plug and, as a result, is very light and powerful. pretty trick if you ask me. fwiw, it was in a press release from Hobbico and I thought it was cool enough to pass it along to you guys.

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

    got home from a trip last night but was too blotto to do anything so I went to bed. couldn't sleep after catching a second wind so I went in the shop and set up the two servos on the left wing. will do the other wing tonight, check all of the hardware and probably fly the old girl on Sunday!

    Group Build, 20cc Profile ARF, Who's In?

    RedwingRC has their event this weekend so it'll be a few more days before I've got confirmation of a discount code from Tim and we can get going with this.
