Crash's STOL build log.

[FlyingMonkey]

WHAT?!!? you peeked at my plans!!!

Nah just shot from the hip when the first design looked too much like the old fogey. Was watching experimental airlines you tube channel and saw a glimpse of something I like and just went for it.

OZO, do I need to disqualify someone?

 

[CrashRecovery]

Ok go ahead..... See if I fly over and air drop you parts when you crash

 

[Liemavick]

I'm thinking a dogfight might be a better way to settle this then DQ'ing someone. :black_eyed:

I'm waiting for my polar bear delivery.

I'd appreciate that. I heard your planes are always dropping parts...

than...

 

[Liemavick]

Your always correcting me, TY

 

[CrashRecovery]

I'd appreciate that. I heard your planes are always dropping parts...

Since when?????? The planes sometimes fall out of the sky!

 

[CrashRecovery]

Ok got more work done. All servos were checked for the right direction, centered and pushrods made and installed. Landing gear as well, oh and that's how I had to get the front zip ties done

 

[OutcastZeroOne]

OZO, do I need to disqualify someone?

nah, just means we think alike. wether its good or bad has yet to be determined

 

[FlyingMonkey]

It's been determined, it's not a good thing, very much not a good thing...

 

[CrashRecovery]

Hopefully I can get everything wired up today. Only thing left to do is make the engine pods and mount them up. I don't think that will happen today as the wife has the day odd and we get so little time together. I'll just bring it to work tomorrow and see if I can finish it up.

 

[earthsciteach]

More wife interference...

 

[CrashRecovery]

No......... Wife respect! She has put up with a lot of dumb s$&t in the past and now it's RC Planes. I can only respect her for doing that. I even got her to try and fly the scout and well she just needs a bigger area to fly in.

 

[earthsciteach]

No offense to your wife, man. Monkey and I were chatting about RC wives yesterday. Later in the afternoon, mine spewed forth with a rant about my crap being everywhere in the house. Pure RC wife gold! Mine is a saint, actually. Im very lucky!

 

[Liemavick]

I learned a neat trick, distract the wife with a kitchen remodel and new tile floors. She hardly notices my mess which has grown to 3 rooms now. She is to busy picking out cabinets and tile color. Monkey should I add the cost of the remodel into my RC hobby tab like in your article? Crash nice progress on your build Bro, looking good!

 

[CrashRecovery]

Oh I know you meant no disrespect. I've got to clean up my mess each night since I use the kitchen table. I do have the basement I can use but it gets lonely down there with out the dog and the bird talking to me.

 

[Liemavick]

Crash I hope the bird isn't giving you tips on your wing design, could be grounds for DQ!

My problem is we need to finish a basement repair but we haven't ordered the material to finish.
