Brand new dead cells?

I just got 3 6-packs of Integy Intellect 4200 matched cells. After building the first pack I checked the voltage and it was a bit low, around 5V or so. It's sitting charging now at 1A and the...

M18 Drivetrain Concerns

I am wanting to get the new M18Pro and power it with the Mamba Performance system, which has the 5400rpm/V motor (I actually want to race this car, not go straight line high speed Wink ). My plan is...

RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build

Just checking in. Looks great so far. Those laser cut parts sure are nice. Makes me think of Sig kits, just throw some glue into the box and shake it around, and out pops an airplane. Speaking...

RE: My Somethin Extra Build

So, I finally found out what happened with the epoxy that I ordered and was apparently lost: It was shipped to my old PO Box because the merchant made a mistake, despite my reconfirming my new...

RE: My Somethin Extra Build

Long time no update. I've been quite preoccupied by other things. Here's the latest news.

The epoxy that I ordered a month ago has apparently gotten lost in the mail. [:@] The guy is...

RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build

That is a very unique way to substitute for washout. Good job!

Speaking of covering the plane, are you designing it with one method more in mind than another? If so, which? I have never done...

RE: My Somethin Extra Build

Okay, so I'm kind of stuck on the build right now because of two issues. First, I still have yet to receive the epoxy that I ordered almost 2 weeks ago, and I am at a point where I need it to...

RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build

Looking sweet! [sm=thumbs_up.gif][sm=biggrin.gif] The hinge design is really cool. I'll have to keep it in mind and maybe try modding a plane one day using that.

Relating to what Sparhawk...

ChuckW: Nice job!

Just reporting in. The past half week has been rather busy so I have not gotten a whole lot done with the plane. I had a job interview on Wednesday and needless to say my...

RE: My Somethin Extra Build

More progress this evening. The left wing panel is basically done. The wing tip is being glued right now. Both fuselage doublers have been glued and came out nicely.

I am filling in the...

RE: Glues

I personally use mostly CA. I will use wood glue when I'm bonding a big surface, such as a fuselage double or wing tip. Obviously, epoxy is used in the places where it is required. I have...

RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build

RE: My Somethin Extra Build

ChuckW: Nice job! Definitely not bad for a first try at a balsa cowl. Post pictures once it's all covered.

Here's the most recent update. I have installed T-Nuts on the inside of both W1...

1080tommy: Good job! Enjoy the airplane. I'm sure I will once it's finished.

Got the left wing panel jigged up. I will at least get the TE and LE in place today and start on the shear...

RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build

I didn't mean to give you the wrong impression, sorry about that. I'm definitely not a newbie when it comes to fiberglass. One of my other hobbies, which has stalled out for the time being, is high...

By the way, I looked through the postings you linked to and also did some other research online about how to do...

RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build

The price range sounds just fine. I was personally worried that it might end up being twice that price.

Speaking of fiberglass molds, I should look into how they are made. I've personally...

RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build

Great work. Looks like you're mowing right through.

I have a question, though I suspect you probably can't answer it at this point. How much do you think this kit will end up costing? Wood is...

RE: Kingcat-Like Design and Build

I've looked at Jett engines before, but haven't actually used one. I'm sure they are very nice and very powerful, but like I said, I'm not a speed freak. I just really like how the plane looks. I...
