CSpaced...
Nice work, I really like your instrument panel

Is it a printed image? If so, would you like to share it?

Good luck with the aileron servos

Gather a lot of patience and calm before you begin...

marvelous bro!! - Zivo and me will be starting ours in two weeks or so - we can ask some Q's?? no??

CSpaced · 10-17-2006, 05:06 PM

Ask as many Q's as you want, I'll be happy to share what I've learned on this airplane!

As for the dash...I don't mind sharing but its a big file, send me a PM with your email address and I'll send it over to you. I just want to see a pic of it in your airplane

Inspired from another thread, what do you think of my stick-plane (sorry for bad image quality)?

That's awesome - how did you make it?

TooLy · 10-19-2006, 04:22 PM

What Edge is the one in your photo ?

adrian · 10-19-2006, 04:25 PM

xtreme composite - roei - how youre doing?

peterschmidt · 10-20-2006, 12:59 AM

Well, I pretty much did like this,
Scale Dalton Stickplane!

But instead of cover it with film I took photos with my digital camera, sideview with no wings attached and top and bottom view of wings and stab.
Then edit them in Corel Draw to match my 3-view I was building after.
Print them out and "cover".
To finnish it of, a coat of epoxi and a nice canopy...

Took a few hours but it was worth the effort I think.

It will be a killer practice plane, fully symmetrical wing, airfoiled stab and fin and the wingloading is well below 50g/m² (whatever that is in oz...)

TooLy, Adrian is right, it's the X-Treme Composite Edge 540T 33%, the same as CSpaced is building here, but obviously different colour...

peterschmidt · 10-25-2006, 07:28 AM

CSpaced, here you go, the instruments installed. I'm very pleased with it

Thanks again!

CSpaced · 10-25-2006, 09:41 AM

Nice job! How did you secure it in there?

RTK · 10-25-2006, 12:17 PM
