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

    I got all major construction done on my Mini Dart 2 DLG. Just need to install the linkage. Waiting on my Radiomaster Pocket to arrive first. I want to install the receiver and power up the servos before I make my linkage. USPS is painfully slow these days.

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    That is a big reason I went with the Pocket instead on the Boxer. The Boxer only has a momentary switch on the right side. Some people have gone threw the trouble of moving the momentary switch to the opposite side on the Boxer but it looked like more headache to do than I wanted.

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    That is pretty much why I bought it. I didn't want to try and program my Spektrum from scratch for a DLG. I couldn't find any ready made DLG templates for Spektrum. But I found this for Edge/Open TX https://rc-soar.com/edgetx/setups/dlg/index.php.

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Yes quite a learning curve on these things. I ordered a Radiomaster Pocket to pair up with it. Which is all you fault! :lol2: That will be another learning curve. Hopefully it will arrive by the end of this week.

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    I’m on page 28 of 40 of the Mini Dart 2 thread on R C G lol. Been watching a ton of vids for sure. So far all I’ve done is modify my servos to fit. They were to tall mainly because the servo wire exited out the bottom of the case instead of the side. Also had to thin down the servo horns...

    Yippee! What the postman brought

    Got this beauty in the mail yesterday. It’s the Mini Dart 2 DLG carbon version. It’s crazy light weight. Hopefully I can figure out how to assemble it without screwing it up. It’s really delicate compared to anything else I’ve ever built.

    And beat the heat of summer. I also like being able to fly after work in the winter. It’s dark by the time I get home in the late fall through late winter.

    What beer ya drinking tonight?

    Two Hearted Ale and Laganitas are both classics and they are responsible for my IPA addiction for sure.

    Nice picture. The heat, not so much lol. It’s no fun flying in that kind of weather.

    What beer ya drinking tonight?

    Finally something new to post. New Zealand Style IPA at our local brewery. It’s pretty good. I’m sure I’ll have a few more in the future.
