Added a page for the Alula I am building (here) under Workbench. So far its looking good. Should have it finished up today or tomorrow.
Well I have been unsure about how to get the Chaser 1 airborn without it rolling and crashing every other try. Larger virticals may help but the real solution I think will be a strait throw. How to do this, I tried from above the plane, and it worked. But under-hand tosses don’t give enough [...]
New Glider work in progress. I have been intending to get one of these built for some time. I redrew the plans in CAD and then re-sized them and printed them, all was fine.. except I had to change the 3mm gaps to 6mm opps..
As it is, the wingspan is 36 inches and the weight [...]
While at Cliff’s house the other day there was a slight voltage accident that fried out all the electronics in his Wing Warrior Sloper. As a gift I got this slightly smelly wing as an introduction into sloping, I have all my own electronics and was about to install them but the nose was kinda [...]

Have been pretty busy lately, but here is a new page for DX6i users. More on other things will be added but for now it has fixes for the menu scrolling wheel and button breaking. Thanks to benzee1 on Helifreak.com for the Wheel Mod.
New How To page can be viewed (here)
The wind was blowing and once I got to the field I realized I would be facing the sun since it was evening. There where also soccer players out there, not that that bothered me! lol chop chop. Anyway I just could not have the first day flying the Chaser 1 end in a crash, [...]
Today early AM I took the Chaser 1 up for its maiden flight. As usual I was a bit nervous when I threw it into the air. It flew really well. I trimmed the plane into good level flight but the moment I changed direction or power I had to trim it back the other [...]
Well a pretty big day today for the little FlyCamOne² Chaser, I got it all painted and almost ready for flight. Perhaps in the morning.
I got a new laptop to travel with an ACER N270, It’s small fast and is working well. I had to get a mouse for it though the touch pad was [...]
