Pics of my first build, simple series ace rc me109
just thought id throw these pics on, there of my almost complete simple ace rc me109, tell me what you think. one question, how could i make the canopy removable.
ps. i have to hand it to you guys, covering is harder than it looks, or i might not be that good at it.

Looking good Tacca. What are you putting in it for power?
Yes, covering is harder than it looks, but it's like anything else; once you've got the hang of it, it doesn't seem so hard. It's still not my favourite part of building though.
How often do you plan to remove the canopy? I use small screws to hold on my canopies. You could use small rare earth magnets or Velcro if you need to remove it frequently.

Tacca- That looks good so far! Would like to know how it does with the Norvel.
CP- What do you think of the WWII simple series platform for Combat. I've always thought some WWII combat would be fun too.

Tacca, sorry to tell you dude, but you may never get better at covering... at least Scudrunner didn't![X(] Seriously, it looks real nice. You planning on some contrasting colors?

Scuddy:
Take what you can get. I have known him for years and he never, never said he liked me! But, btw, it is alright - if he started saying things like that to me, I would worry about him![X(] At a minimum, I would insist that he not wear his Clint Eastwood western hat when he is flying!

SR77 does very nice work [just not very much of it]. Combat is combat, I don't care if you want to show up with a scale B17, as long as it can tow a streamer, that's all that counts. I already did the 704 AMA scale combat thing, and it was cool to see facsimiles of real planes out there, but I'll take the simplicity of a flying wing for a plane that sees the most combat time. All I want out of life is YOUR STREAMER[>:]!!!

PT- [sm=kiss.gif] right back at ya! Ah Yuck...[:'(] I like the hat.. I can easily tell who you are in any picts...
FS- Are you jealous??
CP- Thanks for having my back...kinda sorta. I like the warbird idea.... since you bring a pair of .15 SSC wings. I don't see why I could not come up with a couple warbirds... other than for all the same reasons -->(lame excuses) that I have not finished my SWR.
