    Making a few Changes

    I personally like the alerts other than the ones over the classified section. Always shows a big number there and I'm to broke to buy anything so I don't even look.

    The I'm NOT going out flying thread.

    No flying for me today. First I had to work 8hrs but then after work went out for a different a kind of fun. Myself and four other co workers gathered to do some shooting. Handgun wise it was the first time I had shot anything bigger than a 22 and boy did I have some fun. List of guns shot...

    CNC machining your own parts

    I guess would you have any recommendations on a good DIY CNC kit that is relatively inexpensive.

    Gyro's for planes

    I know @49dimes like the Aura from Flex Inovations. He sent me one to try and I haven't had a chance to hook it up yet but will here very soon.

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    Thanks. I figured that's what you did but thought you might have a trick to it or something.

    CNC machining your own parts

    Sounds nice. Ultimately I would like to have a router table around 2x4 as it would work perfect for all the planes I scratch build. Normally cut my parts by hand from 36" long 4" wide balsa sheets.

    Aerobeez pics

    They catch the ones with watermarks but I posted a couple of pics of my Carden cap with the GSN decal on it and they missed them.

    CNC machining your own parts

    I have really considered getting a CNC router like the X-carve just isn't in my budget. As much as I scratch build I bet it would pay off in no time though.

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

    I set the pau sukhoi I won here on GSN last year back on the bench yesterday. Got all the holes cut in covering that I needed to and then got the rudder servo installed. Had to open the hole up a bit for it and looks like I will have to do the same for the elevator and aileron servos. Getting...

    Scale 50cc Scratch Build From My Own Design Revisited

    That looks awesome. Might I ask how you plan out the checkers so they are the same size all the way around.

    Sunday night GSN Update

    That's what I'm seeing on my phone. On the computer it looks normal. I'm a member of the ranger station forums as well and their site does the same with adds as well.

    Sunday night GSN Update

    Paul this is the add that pops up at the bottom of the page. There is one at the top just like it. Doesn't really bother me at all but like jetpainter said it messes with the layout of the site on the phone.

    Sunday night GSN Update

    I'm getting them as well. Not sure what it is but hopefully it gets straightened out. Might have to do with the normal banner adds being turned off.

    Anyone have a good source for Radio set-up

    That actually sounds like a good way of doing it.

    Anyone have a good source for Radio set-up

    I would say just pick up a DX18 if staying spektrum. I personally do not think the dx20 looks very good at all. Also I feel the leather on it could be a bad idea. One what will the leather look like in a couple years. Two how slippery will the leather be when your hands are sweaty. And three how...

    Anyone have a good source for Radio set-up

    Hope this makes since here. First pic is the throttle curve screen on one of my foamies. As you can see it's not even activated but it's what the screen looks like before you start playing with the curve. Second screen is from my 30% Carden Cap with a DLE 55 on the nose. Like I said the idea...
