What's your winter project this year?

[Bhughes]

It will be glow Cory. I have a G23 and a G26 not doing anything but I am leaning toward a little more scale sound. A Saito 170 R3.

Bonus points for the scale sound Mervin

The Saito will go great with that plane, good call.

I've got several planes in various forms of being built. Bare white habu I plan on airbrushing something alittle beyond my ability adding retracts and flaps to, 70mm F-15 twin, 50MM A-10 with 10 blade 4cell fan units airbrushed and weathered, .40 sized primo lightened to 2lbs framed and covered, weight includes landing gear an wheel. Couple of projects for other people that are close to being done that include at Great planes Stearman and RC guys Pitts............................. And the one I rely want to get to is a 100cc.................. SBUS.............. Hangar 9......................BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You gotta love those big biped, but they're too much of a bear in terms of set up for my liking... Even 1.20 size is really pushing it, I'll likely find a place in the trailer where that pt-17 can sit with the wings on otherwise I'll never fly it.

Make sure you post some pics when you get to airbrushing, that's really cool.

So after planting my Shoestring yesterday nose first into good ol' mother earth at about 120MPH I am thinking on assembling the Beast 60E. I know, not much a plane compared to what the vast majority on here build and fly but perfect for me until I get heat put into my garage and I can start work on a true "build"....Next winter......

Ok, here is the pic

Ouch... I don't find I get any more pumped about the big planes than I do about the smaller ones anymore, nothing wrong with the 60e, I'm a little curiious how it facilitates easy battery swaps though.

I'm a little curiious how it facilitates easy battery swaps though.

The Beast 60e has a hatch that extends all the way to the engine cowl. The battery area is cavernous and is easy to access. Just like the old Jaguars, lift the back and pull forward and the hood opens.

My winter project is to "BEAUTIFY A BEAST".

I recently purchased the large Hanger 9 100cc size one and immediately stripped off all of the covering.

I plan on making some general improvements from the discussions from what I have read on another build thread. I've got two paint schemes in mind, both easy to see in the sky but need a little more information on where to get all of the decals. I'll be talking to Trevor for some help!

But the major change will be in making it easier to quickly set up at the field. With the covering off it's much easier to see where modifications can be made.

Pictures and posts to come on a separate thread.

Did you get the pics I emailed you Brian

Did you get the pics I emailed you Brian

Yes I did, and as I said the paint scheme is still up in the air. Wait till October to find out!

Going to continue on with my scratch build (in my signature) and a new plane that I haven't even decided on yet
