haha I am assuming you are married. Based on the detail of those seats, pilot, and various what nots (like the manuals in the seats and on the dash! Amazing!), I would imagine that wives aren't very happy about the time spent on these models. Don't they know that's what keeps us all out of trouble?

Sounds good Tom. Maybe sometime when it gets warm again. Let's shoot for may? (oh god that is a damn long time)

Went flying again today. Elad what's up buddy? You flying lately?

I have surpassed those that consider themselves good at my airfield. Well, maybe not. Maybe I am more foolish,...but they wouldn't fly in today's wind. Same as yesterday. But for about 20 - 30 minutes around 5:45 ish...it was very calm. Amazing how much better and more responsive the plane is without that wind. I had a couple of close calls today also. Not really, but if I was lower to the ground they would have been or worse. When making turns I start a turn then just pull back on the stick with no turn on the stick to complete the stick. Many times it would just ROCKET toward the ground because of the wind. Freaked me out. Takeoffs were a bit scarey also. I actually had a wind to takeoff into, but it sure seemed like I was going to stall into the trees on a few of em. All told I burnt up 3 tanks of fuel. I'm proud of myself. With my new transmitter and receiver batteries, I can fly forever. Alas I think today was officially the last nice day of the year. We shall see however. I'd like to see an indian , indian summer. The 10 day forecast looks something like this: bad, real bad, worse, fairly bad, ok ...no...still bad, freezing with snow!, bad, fair....

Fuse build going slow on my bipe. Lotsa little tiny pieces needing special carvings and epoxied. I am going to attack the front tomorrow or the next day. That requires 3 solid blocks O' wood to be expoxied together that will shape the front that envelopes the engine. I have to shape it intricately(sp?) to match the fuse look.

I have a question about sailplanes if anyone knows anything. How much exacty do you think I am adding in weight if I go with 2 standard servos/reciever pack vs a micro pack? I don't want to really chunk the money into this sailplane unless I am ready to build my other micro required model...BUT would like to experiment with the sailplane a few times before the snow hits us.

HMM?
