What happened? I can't watch... was I kicked out? I had to take a business call... that sucks if I was kicked out...
I'm watching it right now, they had to close the old stream and start a new one.What happened? I can't watch... was I kicked out? I had to take a business call... that sucks if I was kicked out...
I'm following along...
I watched along then decided after i was gonna build one so now I’m following along after the end of it...Had fun with the Flite Test YouTube build along. It was so fun. The feed got laggy at times, but it was so worth having that much fun. I got mine done except for putting the motor on. #PlanedemicBuilding

Wow, that is incredible! Not only did you finish yours but it looks like a cleaner build than mine. I ended up with a lot of extra glue in mine and more packing tape than I ever remember using in the past. Yours has landing gear too? Showoff!Had fun with the Flite Test YouTube build along.

EDIT: But at least mine has windows and GoFast(tm) tail stripe?
Sadly, my dihedral somehow came out a touch uneven and I almost ripped the front skewer out while putting the rubber bands on. Welp, easy come easy go!
I've used popsicle sticks or bamboo skewers to shore up the trailing edge, but that still sort of relies on that single foam thickness not snapping and scrunching up. I did this on my 2m glider build and love it so I did it on the cub too, after almost ripping out the skewers on the first rubber band install.Looks good. I want to print these to help save the trailing edge of the wing.

Haha when I said that I had just wondered how I have a TWO giant workbenches and yet somehow I am struggling to find a place to put the wing or any space to be able to cut a bit to be the pushrod guides. What a mess.the reference to the neat and then cluttered workspace during a build. Now if that isn't "real life" I don't know what is?
Oh look at this fancy guy with his painted plane. Man that looks perfect too.got mine built, I just need to finish it, It was fun, looking forward to more
