I just love it when a kid picks a fight with adults, then whines thats he's a kid when someone calls him on it. Ace, if you wanna play with the big boys, learn to act like one.

I assure you, i wasn't attacking you, if i were attacking you, you'd have no doubt about it. I was merely calling it as i see it, and trying to relieve some of the folks worries that they are missing out on some new super secret building method. You were the one that made the statement, and continue to back it.

Since you state that the plane's aren't yours in the first place, its not your right to post how they're built. Following that logic, they really weren't yours to post pics of here in the first place, and taunt others with either, were they?

Looking at how much time you spent building that coro spitfire....I'd probably just use a Top Flite balsa kit and be done with it. What you have there is not what SPAD means to me. What you have there is a SPAD that you've engineered all the EDF back into. I think I'd be just as much afraid to fly that as one I built from balsa.

dude
i did not whine at all in this forum what i said was a question.

and ya dude you were attacking me.... you posted something to try hurt me..(not in a physical way) and the last time I checked thats attacking some one, in your case you are attacking my character.

and oh ya the planes we build don't take that long to do.. once you get the technique down you can have the basic plane done in a night (thats without paint our electronics) so really its worth it because the design really make the plane more durable and easy to fix.

A very wise man once said, "There is nothing new under the Sun." Making a SPAD is the same technique a paper plane. Look at the sites that promote paper planes and be amazed. A SPAD uses the same techniques. If that is not enough do a Google on "origami".

I made this post because i thought people would be interested in what my club was doing with spads
and maybe encourage people to push the spads farther
and also to see if any one else had any thing like ours.

Status: offline 		Ace Bogie, the reason you are experiencing hostility is simple. You showed a plane using some kind of 'new' building technique, and SPAD is all about sharing. I spent more time creating a thread and showing how to build my Cor-Star 60, then it actually took me to build the plane. Why did I do it? Because I felt obligated to give the SPAD community something back, after using THEIR ideas to create the Cor-Star. That's called 'Appreciation', perhaps you've heard of it?

If you want to show, and not tell, fine. But I don't think you will get a very warm reception around here. But you know what I really think? I think you just get a kick out of people begging for your methods, and holding them back. And I bet it's all been done before. Maybe that is why you won't reveal your methods, because you know they've been done before, and then you would look foolish.

I thought I had 'invented' a few new things with coro when I built the Cor-Star, things like the turtledeck method and the grinding of flutes to give a thin skin for a wrap, etc. Turns out, they've all been done before. Thankfully I didn't brag about these methods, just showed em to the good folks in SPAD, who (mostly) already knew about them. I seriously doubt, with the years SPAD has been around, and the hundreds of brilliant and resourceful SPADers out there, that ANYTHING 'new' could be done with coroplast. I'm sure it's all been tried and tested. If your buddy thinks he is going to get rich selling these things for $100, he is sorely mistaking.

I don't wan't another fight.. i would like to show how we do it.
I even asked the designer for our coro wing if i could
this is his reply

!QUOT!Message:
Hey
some people on RCU really wan't to know our building techniques.... and I wanted to know if any one cares if i posted them. ACE Bogie!QUOT!

Message:
actulay yes i would mind , i realy do not want ot let people know exacly how to make my wings etc bodys i dotn realy care about but its to our advantage to keep it quiet persay.. however if you feel you need to let them know how to by all means o ahead, i realy dont think you can put it in words how mike and i build our planes..

Midair!QUOT!


so you see its not my info to give out
and its not me who wan't to keep a secret

like holy Sh!!!!
I'am just a kid who thought people would be interested
NOT A KID WHO GETS HIS KICKS OUT OF HOLDING INFO BACK
like ****

and for the guy who is selling those planes doesn't want to get rich
from selling them. he has only sold a couple to club members that don't have the time to build

I can't believe you people.

Can you stop putting words into my mouth
because i never wan'ted any of this
all i wanted to do is show you what my club was doing, Because 'I' personally have never seen it done be for
and thought it was cool and thought other people would find it cool too.

And people started by saying I was
trying to boast about it

these are all things people have been putting into my mouth. and i am sorry if it looked that way!
I can't be responsible for what or how other people interpret this forum

All i want to do is clear this whole thing up
And i do not want to fight about it

Status: offline 		Deadeye said it very well. You came in, bragged about how your club built these great planes, and then wanted to know if anyone does anything similar. But, then when everyone said well, how's it done? You said "oh, i can't tell". If you can't see why that upsets people, your an idiot.

In the last 4 years, i've built a couple hundred spads, even built and sold arf's for awhile. Of those Spads, i've never, not a single time, refused to tell anyone who asked how i built them. Every combat arf that i sold i had printed plans available free on my site (still do, for that matter). That doesn't mean i've always provided detailed plans to every plane, but i've never ever refused to share a building technique, nor will i ever.

Now try real hard to understand this: By posting pics of a plane, and then bragging about how it was built, you obligated yourself to disclose how it was built, for better or worse. Your first mistake was posting someone else's plane, your second was refusing to ellaborate on how its built. I've been nice to you so far, (even though you think i was "attacking" you). I've not called you a single name, or said anything that wasn't the absolute truth. You've called me names, accused me of having things up my butt, etc, and i've not called you a single name, other than kid (which you like to use as a defense when someone calls you on something).

I could care less whether you share how the plane was built or not. If i wanted to build one, i promise you i could, with no input from you or your secretive buddy. My only qualm is with your attitude, and total ignorance of the Spad spirit.

If anyone wants to build a scale warbird, i can give you 4 real nice ones to start from:

Corostang:

UsedSkidoo's Corsair:

There's a p-39, and p-40 on www.rcspads.com as well as a couple of the above.
As you can see, there's lots of good scale plans out there. Don't sweat these guys thinking they've got the inside scoop. More times than not, anything thats overhyped is just that, overhyped.
