Late night eh?

Post some pics when your done...

Andrew Bird · 03-07-2008, 11:14 PM

Not as late as it could be - I'm in New York, just haven't changed my settings so not 4am like it would be back home. Stuck the pics to my previous post but cocked it up on the first try! (here they are again)

CSpaced · 03-07-2008, 11:17 PM

Ahhh gotcha, thought you were working into the wee hours of the morning! The jet looks awesome, you gonna add some decals to finish it off?

Andrew Bird · 03-07-2008, 11:28 PM

Promark are shipping me some custom decals as we speak. It can then have clearcoat and we are in business!

Waiting for the motor to get back from upgrade and service but hopefully that will be in about a weeks time.

Since I moved to the US I've mainly been flying a Bandit ARF but once this project is done it's time to get back into some good old fasioned 3d - looking at a EF extra 300 (88"). Should be a bit more of a straight forward build than this one!

Might sell the Bandit ARF - not sure it as well as this one.

Few more with the paint finished on the top side......(and both swept and std fins)

CSpaced · 03-11-2008, 08:51 AM

Looks awesome mate! You gonna bring it Joe Nall?

Andrew Bird · 03-11-2008, 03:34 PM

Yea - might try and make it down. Looks like I'll be based in Florida around that time but a road trip won't hurt!

Andrew Bird · 03-11-2008, 06:50 PM

Underside.....

CSpaced · 03-11-2008, 06:54 PM

Dude! The underside looks awesome!

Andrew Bird · 03-11-2008, 08:19 PM

CSpaced - I am WELL HAPPY with how it's worked out! I have lusted after this airplane for a long time, it's taken many hours and tested me but it's nearly done.

It's also kind of nice to have something that's not an ARF. My own build and my own paint.

This was also the mighty test for my fiancee. The fact she was patient enough not to kill me after building this bad boy in our apartment bodes well for her!

Sorry for sounding dumb - I'm new round these parts. What's the deal with Nall. Can pilots just sign up, show up and fly?
Looks like I can do some jet and 3d stuff over there.

CSpaced · 03-11-2008, 10:15 PM

To fly at the Nall you need to be a member of the AMA (or international equivalent), but if you are a member of the AMA you also need to be an IMAA member as it is a giant scale event. They have all the info you need on their website - www.joenall.com

Hope to see your jet there!
