Eff-Cancer Combat Event - Orillia - Sat April 27

[JDaly]

Got some paint on my ride tonight. Fokker red to start, trim to come later. 3D printed and painted the exhaust nozzles. Kinda Red Baron meets Luke Skywalker thing going on. Just need to make the mounts for the 64mm EDF's. Long sharp probe out the front to balance and skewer the competition. Turn, burn, and EFF CANCER!!!!!

He doesn't have an IMAC plane

NOT everyone is worthy of one.

Jim,
No main spar. Packing tape has the strings in it for strength. Yep no R2 but I do have R3 but thats my IMAAC'ish type plane.

Gorilla glue is what ulf uses on his. I'm doing the same. If i could just figure out the whole "less is more" thing I'd be laughing.

Ya Less is DEFINITELY MORE.

So ULF did us all a real SOLID at $20/Kit. I bought 3 so paid $60.

Was just at Hobby Hobby to buy some control linkages for these Beeoches.

So 18 Ball links & 2 pieces of 2-56 threaded rod & $72 later this is what I got.

I mean WTF the three complete kits were less then the control linkages. LOL

Oh and of course the US$150 order from Hobby King and another US$ 75 from SDS Hobbies.

Who said these things were cheap, Jus I just hang my 3 from the ceiling once built. Oh and haven't bought paint yet. LOL!

Oh and STILL need another 4 servos from HK that were back ordered then came back and I waited too long and now B/O again. LOL!

But ALL for a good cause because EFF CANCER dammit!

That’s quite an expense Jim. Wow.

Really eager to see you get 1 of these done in 2 months. May be some all-nighters

Yup might book a week off to do these or at least the two days I normally take off for Toledo which I'm passing on this year.
