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

    I would recommend pulling the bed. I dropped the tank in my ranger when I first got it as the sending unit didn't work. The way the mount the tanks in the trucks makes it not to hard to get it out but trying to get it back in especially by yourself is a royal PIA.

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

    It is a small one. I remember how excited I was the first time I ordered a new clutch and when it came in. That was when it was going in my mustang though and was a nice race clutch. This one I'm not as excited about. Just going in my 96 ford ranger. Throwout bearing is screaming so figured...

    Yay I'm getting some shop time over the next couple of days, just not the shop time I had hoped for. LOL

    I will be sure to keep you informed of the local fun flys around me this year if you think you could make it to one. Be nice to hang out with someone else who likes to fly 3D. Right now all I gots is my couple of probro buddies and a bunch of CJ's.

    I'm actually with MVRCC but the picture today was from me flying with a couple buddies at the Funtime Virginia Aeronuts field. Both clubs are in the Petersburg va area. Not sure where cvrc is located.

    Yup the wings come off. 81" span 76" long 1384 squares of wing area, 13.bs minus fuel makes for a really fun plane that flys great and has crazy amounts of power.

    Had a little fun in the sun before the winds got to bad. Got a scarey video of the edge profile I will upload tomorrow. My thumbs got crossed up in an up close hover. Fell over and came at me. Some ducking and weaving and I basically did a rudder turn around my head with a 55cc plane. Might have...

    I know I will. I have flown a buddies plane with one but now I will be able to make back to back flights trying the two diff wood props I have and then the falcon and seeing how they all compare. Honestly my my big profile edge I don't need any more than the xoar wood prop I'm running as the...

    Little blurry but basically I finally worked up the nerve to drill my first falcon cf prop. It's currently bolted onto my pau Sukhoi but it might get swapped back and forth between it and my 55cc edge profile. Looking forward to getting to fly a falcon prop.

    Scale Pitts S1-T, S1-S, and a Challenger.

    So are there any kits out there for a 20-55cc Pitts S-1???? I have found a few sets of plans out there that don't look all that part to build but I'm not in the mood to take on making a cowl and canopy. Just wondering that's all.

    I gots the perfect 50cc size airframe for you. 80" span DLE 55 on the nose and only weighs 13.4 lbs dry.

    Not as much room as it looks like. From the tree line on the right to the one on the left is just over 100' long. I would be comfortable flying most of my slabs there though as they float and are easy to just harrier land. Not sure I'm willing to fly my 55cc one there though. Yes that power line...

    3D MOJO 65 w/20cc Build

    Receiver mounted in my 55cc edge. In my sbach I had it turned facing one wing so once wing was installed I could plug everything in.
