And did some things to get ready for LEDs
One of these had pieces going from the center skewer to the others. (creating a closed triangle.) now it doesn't.
I don't think the wing needed the added strength and this will allow the LED to light it up better.

does this float color scheme have too much going on?

Colors are sweet.
My first thought is the floats might be simplified a little maybe, but it's a tough call.

the floats are already simplified as far as I want to go, as this is a scale plane

tbh I forgot about that thing lol. I can work on the design later but no promises when it will be ready(i wouldn't mind beta building the pa-18 when you start more work on it

Too many projects in the works. Unfortunately it's looking like you'll need to leave the hobby. We'll miss you.So what to do tonight? Polyurethane on the Zero? More paint and more assembly of the DR1? Start with some paint on the Sea Duck? Build the Y power cable for the Sea Duck? Starting cutting out the P36? hmmm... yes, yes, maybe, yes, maybe

Yeah because I can build one plane in four months, not four planes in one month.
Maybe I'm too hard on myself. I'm in it for the build as much as anything else. If I built them that fast I'd have to throw out a plane every week. I'd rather savor the designing and the building processes.

I do so enjoy the designing. I've just had a few planes on the "I wanna build me one of those" list for a while - also been short on the motivation for the last few months with work. So I needed a kick in the behind and buildruary just seemed like the thing to do it. I must say it did work so far - I just gotta take a break when its over so I don't burn out on something I enjoy! I'll probably switch into another design and take my sweet old time with itYeah because I can build one plane in four months, not four planes in one month.

For sure. Worst thing for me is if I feel rushed I make mistakes and do shoddy work.I do so enjoy the designing.

Good news: The FreezerBurn2 is in runnable condition now, and I'm about to start cutting parts for the next build. Let's see if I get a second reasonably good snow this year.
