Anybody getting anything done?

Crap weather = no flying.
Freezing cold in the workshop = no building
Workshop a mess










Is anybody else getting actually getting anything done?

Richard, that blue foam will someday be your wings!

My workshop has moved into the house and I have a few projects nearing completion, only thing is I am looking for 4 sets of the MPX 5 pin connectors, I have asked Santa but I am not sure if he has them.
Just as a by the way anyone here have a few they could lend me and I will replace asap?

Merry Christmas to one and all

Ralph

Hi there,

Not much too on my side for the big stuff! -2 in the garage right now  :!:

I still get my "fix" in the sitting room with the smaller models (photos to follow)    Waiting for better days to resume the epoxy stuff!

Ralph, for the 5pins MPX, we have loads in the shop!
Send me your address!  

[rogallo]

Not that I’m one to brag :roll: ………………. But;

The temperature in my workshop is 22degrees C!  
Just out of shot is a cup of coffee on the window cill, and the project on the work bench is a national secret. Because of that, information about it is only available on a strictly Need to Know basis.
However, if it ever does actually fly, I might tell you all about it then. And may be even show you some pictures of it. Isn’t that exciting for you!

The only good thing about this weather is that the winds have been generally light. So even if Big L were available, there wouldn’t have been any flying up there anyway. I’m hoping that when this snow all disappears it will be replaced by a few westerly gales.  

Anyway, I can’t be wasting my time typing entries for this forum, I must get back to  my nice warm workshop. Ho Ho Ho!

:twisted:  :twisted:

Soooooooooo... What's on the bench !  :mrgreen:

[billscottni]

Looks small 50 - 60". You been getting a little mouldie Keith?

[Happy Days]

Like I said Fred, that information is a classified government secret. If I told you what it was, I’d have to kill you afterwards. :cry:

But I’ll give you some clues. :wink: ..................

The ailerons are 33% of the wing chord.

The length of the fuse is 60% of the wingspan.

And, proportionally, it has a large rudder and elevator.

What do ya’ recon?

If you get the right answer I give you a new pair of fishnet stockings to match your stiletto heels for christmas

Bill,…………..Perhaps it’s the camera angle. The total span will be just under two meters.
( I don’t fancy you, so if you get the answer right I wont be getting you any stockings)

Must be camera angle foreshortening the span,

With those clues??.................. Kulbutin?

and can I just get the suspenders?

 :lol:  :lol: Yea' I know the feeling :lol:

Good try, but no, it's not a Kulbutin.
BTW there is only half the wing on the bench in the picture.

[Fred]

Minitoon or something like that with those dimensions  :?:

[Fred]

Oh wait, Minitoon is only 1.5m...
An enlarged one ?  :?:
A big Padawan ?  :?:
A big Wasabi ?

[Happy Days]

god-dam-it :shock: , you certainly know your planes Fred! Spot on, it is indeed a Minitoon.  Mind you, Bill was close with a Kulbutin.

All foam with coroplast tail feathers, two piece wing (for ease of transport in my little car) and a 1.8mtr span..

So well done Fred. :clap:  I’ll be looking to you to tell me how to fly in 4axis when the weather breaks.
