Hey VIC!, where's the LIPO go? I've been wondering if you actually owned a 1/2a engine or just like to torment your betters.[sm=lol.gif]

Hey pt:
How was the beach? Are you still planning on going to NC races? Tomorrow is work day at the field - don't worry I will show and do the work for both of us. Assuming it does not rain!

DF Blink? Oh yea you never sent me one. I promise I have a good CC# somewhere around here.[sm=bananahead.gif]

Dude, your previously unquotable statement kinda hurts bro. Especially after all the head bangin that went into this one.

Honestly tho I am thinking about mounting the fan unit on a delta of similar proprotions of the Aggressor before tearing up the Mig kit.

McC, The tank is of the Fuji persuasion but after the first run the exhaust melted a hole in the side so I used a steel battery case as a heat sheild. Don't ask where I got the battery case from.

I must admit getting the fuel delivery worked out was a pain in the keister! I hope it works out a little better in the shroud.

The problem with the "Fuel delivery" is too much ice in the "shroud"

Au Contrare my brother from down under. After 5 rounds while building and listening to the History channel, the ice, shroud, containment unit, and ability to stand are exactly correct and tuned properly from many years of practice and denial.[sm=bananahead.gif][sm=spinnyeyes.gif][sm=stupid.gif]

Dear Vic (rhymes with hic [as in hicup]),

Isn't a shroud something they use at funerals? Maybe that's appropriate after all .

Not since old days

Here she is with all the stuff mounted. K co. has the fuel delivery worked out pretty good in this set-up.[sm=thumbup.gif] It ran purrfect. So now I just gotta mount the sucker and fly it![>:]

Since I don't have a Blink to mount it in, HICCUP, I am just going to have to design my own bad little airframe![sm=stupid.gif]
