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

    It will Work fine for that. The way the blade sets it’s kind of offset. When made the gear on my 55cc profile I wanted the legs to taper from 2” wide at the top to 1” wide at the bottom. Went to a buddies house and we clamped the portaband in a vise standing up so it was setup like a normal band...

    Discussion Pilot Laser

    agree that it doesnt look much like a laser but I like the looks of it. Looks as though they are trying to make something that is capable of more high energy like the newer EF stuff out there and I like it.

    Yeah I’m my old Futaba it was labeled throttle hold or something like that. Now that I use a taranis it’s done different. I set a logical switch that tells its to disable the throttle stick.

    Damn dude that sucks. Hope you heal fast. I agree with Stang on the kill switch on everything. Always end up explaining to someone at the field when I let them fly one of my electric planes and their first response is the throttle isn't working. I tell them to flip the kill switch above the...

    Yup terry originally showed the zona saw trick. I used it when I split the cowl on a buddy’s 33% hangar 9 Edge. Threw away my xacto was afterwords as I was so sold on how the zona did.

    Took my 1m dlg out in the front yard this afternoon when the winds died down. No real lift to speak of but was just fun to be out throwing the plane into the air. Getting more consistent and higher launches which feels good as well.

    Even being all four strokes I can only imagine how much nitro that thing burns in one flight.

    Hadn't heard that but it seems weird that they would push for something that I would think would make it harder for them to do their drone delivery.
