Default Re: LET'S SEE YOUR E-TOC BIRDS!!!

I went through all the trouble of making SCALE birds that would look great while flying, but i wasn't accepted

at least mine are original!

I went and designed an all new pattern AND freestyle bird!

Andrew,

Get your own plane and stop showing off what I'm gonna be flying... Just don't tell anyone about all the extra thingies and doodads that will be on the planes, or at least mine.

In all seriousness here is my plane. I may have a slightly lighter version for the most part this is what it will look like.

LOL.....In all actuality, it's a joke amongst a bunch of us that someone posted a few pictures of my milled out airplane on the internet and said they "seen it in Europe" instead of actually giving credit to the person and company that did it for me even when they new it were the plane came from in the first place. One of those things were you give credit when credit is do. The Europeans are equally as advanced as we are in the indoor world. No big deal, I am just giving that person a hard time because he needs it.

Mike Hammel from Fancy Foam is really the only person to successfully mill out "truss work" in an airplane with great success and extreme accuracy. I know that Mike takes great pride in what he does and that means more to me than flying. I see that Insane Foamies is attempting to try the process as well on a few airplanes which is great. I am glad that I was able to be a small contributing factor to Mike's amazing idea!

With all the being said, I just wanted to make sure Mike got credit for what I feel is the next revolutionary idea in the foamie market.

Jason,

Your correct mike of Fancyfoam did a great job of cutting out your super light Vrolet and Brandon Chitty's planes. It was nice to see that the euro style is coming over the US and mike is doing this. Hopefully there are many new awesome things at ETOC that will help bring the US a little closer the Europeans in foamies.

Andrew

Hey Noll, speaking of giving credit where credit it's due, it's about time you pony up and give me the credit I deserve for designing that air brakey thingamabob on the back of the aileron pushy thingers.

Actually, the thingies and doodads would have absolutely no reason or purpose being on a plane... but it might get people to chuckle. Why put a T on top of the rudder... cause I can. Why put a T on the bottom of the rudder... to match the top. And the list goes on and on............... Off to bed before I try and mount the gear at the rear of the plane.

All those plates add drag, and a lot of it. Its like turning down the sim speed a little bit on downlines. T top on the rudder though....I'm not sure. Even if most of it is for show, it still adds drag.
