When a PROBRO is REALLY bored!

Thought I'd share some pix of what happens when I get tired of waiting for my new Yak....... Yes, I taxied it around in the street (of course I installed a throttle servo!) Not fast enough to fly.....yet. Need to free up the engine and make it TURN!!

Term...It's a Craftsman 24cc Leaf Blower. I thought about using the engine to power a giant SPAD, but there would be too much work involved in the conversion. So this is what I ended up with. Needless to say, nothing will probably ever come of it......hey wait, I bet I could make a hovercraft!!!!

I love it just the way it is. You should take it to flyins and let people taxi around. We could have races.

MMmmmm....Races. Let's see who can make a steam powered fun fly looking thingy to race the leaf blower! :D

Hey, you got a Turbine waiver for that thing pal????????? I'm calling Dave Brown NOW!!!!

YS-I-DO 05-04-2004 09:02 PM

RE: When a PROBRO is REALLY bored!
 
Good one, Gordo. Don't have the Turbine waiver, just the Dave Brown endorsed Common Sense waiver!!!

Hey, ***? Dave Brown wouldn't take my call. Something about Rule 9, Good Ol' Boys, and low sobbing. Oh well.

I think it had something to do with the fact that the leaf blower would never make it off the ground, therefore it would be hard to break ANY of his precious rules.
