Default RE: Hangar 9 Twist 3D

well Folks I hope I'm not boring ye'all with these updates, but the T_ _ _ T I smashed into pieces last Saturday, Has taken the shape of a T_ _ _ T again, yes tiny particles of balsa have been laid out into what used to be actual sides,[:-] and I was able to get the shape back by bolting the wing back on the piece that was still connected to the tail section, and then piecing all the parts back together from the wing bolt forward,[sm=71_71.gif] it was amazing how it all came together, allot of epoxy forms and straight stick supports have been added to the inside for strength, I think it might be straighter then when it came from the factory,,, LOL,, NOT,,,, but its definitely a fuselage and wing again, I may have to order a 1.20 to go on there with all the extra weight, but I'm sure the OS 70 with handle the task without a problem, it may be a tad slower now but she will fly.

so with a few more hours of work she will be air worthy by this Saturday, Sorry to report such things, but I'm just bustin at the seams and had to tell someone, she is going to need a new paint job for sure but that will come over this winter, Have I mentioned how much I love this hobby???? God I love epoxy.....
