I normally use Micro light filler mixed with west systems epoxy for filling jobs. that makes a really nice light strong bog for filling things. It's not as flexible as foam tho so it will cause a hard...

Well the engine runs and runs pretty well It's doing a solid 10,000 rpm even with 25% oil in the fuel I'm hoping it will pick up still more with a leaner meaner 18% oil Here's the engine moun...

It's a great field there at Cowra ...................but you cant just gaze up at the power lines like you can at McCoy

Looks Good !!

I have a float plane, It's never flown from water Could be a good time to test it out :)

It's nice and dry down here The only trouble is that there's a large flock of low flying pigs Causing a navigation hasard

DON'T YOU HATE THAT !! I was in the same boat or was it that well known canoe ;)

I remember the plane hanging up at hobbies in the hills It's massive!! I thought At least 2m That could well be it Andre looking at the photo your right it doesn't seem to have the straight LE lik...

http://youtu.be/KT-g2X_lVtY Looks like a scale model of Kirby chamblis's edge 540 He has 2 in the same scheme one is for aerobatics and the other is his race plane

I did a bit more work on the engine over the last week. There's a bit of an issue with the OS engines getting hot in the MXSR airframes. I'm not sure how much this has to do with the design of th...

In this class competitors can modify their engines and run what ever fuel they choose. Never in the history of areomodling have engines been so cheap this is an ASP 120 from HK for under $130 and the...

I did some more work on it this evening All the servos are in except the throttle This Kit goes together very nicely the fit of all the parts is brilliant !! I've used HXT 12 servos for ever...

All in good time Steve, probably better to put the bigger power plant in it and use an 8X4 prop instead of the 8X8 that would tame down the top speed and reduce the torque reaction and you'd till have...

Very cool Steven!! You can certainly race the Pogo in The EF1 class, That class is getting quite a decent following now you should come out to Pitt Town next weekend and have a look !!

After enjoying Pylon racing for a little while I thought I might give large scale racing a go. There are, I think only 3 or 4 events a year The models are not specifically racing models, and for most...
