Stupid Building Tricks!!
Okay...so hopefully I can fly better than build. Can you top any of the following bouts of stupidity??
While building an ARF no less ...my Funtana has suffered the following:
BURNED a big hole in the Elevator while trying to iron out the wrinkles (ahh... iron shouldnt be on highest setting)
Used a SHARPIE to outline the fuse on the horizontal and vertical stabs....the black lines CAN NOT be removed with alcohol
Run a screwdriver COMPLETELY through BOTH top AND bottom of aileron while screwing down control horn
Got CA somehow in the blind nut and screw for the wheel pants requiring removal with a Dremel
Put too much canopy glue on .....and didnt notice that it had run down INSIDE THE CANOPY while it was drying inverted....canopy looks like a candle was lit and dripping inside it
My cat chewed the middle of the sleeve for the carbon fiber throttle rod....ruining it
My wife knocked over my golf bag ....right on to the stab...damaging both horizontal and vertical.
If this thing gets off the ground before I destroy it ....it will be a miracle
