Heh...I was eerily calm and collected during the maiden.... not like me at all. Must've been the warm up we had with the fun yak

JohnVH · 07-20-2009, 02:34 PM

I'll make you deal.......you get it and I'll paint it free of charge(ok I charge you one glass of CL). I've got to paint my 33% for my Ultimate anyway.

JohnVH · 07-20-2009, 04:18 PM

wish I could swing one of those, Ill probably have to make a pilot on my budget.. I know how to make a nice 2D one

sweetpea · 07-20-2009, 04:20 PM

LOL!

CSpaced · 07-20-2009, 06:19 PM

Looks like during the excitement I neglected to take any decent shots of the inside of my Edge. I have this one photo, what you can't see is how I have the smoke system set up in front of the tanks. I'll get some better pics next weekend.

JohnVH · 07-20-2009, 06:21 PM

How do you get the front wing bolts in? I put my smoke tank in the can tunnel, 32oz fits right in there.

What motor did you use?

With me fingers! Its a little tight, but not really a problem. I had to trim down the bolts a tad, but other than that they work just fine.

The motor is a DA-100 running on MTW cans, hence why my fuel tanks are side by side.

CSpaced · 07-20-2009, 09:17 PM

More pics!

Anyone know where I can get a spare link for the control surfaces? I lost a screw and bushing yesterday at Snohomish. What I have changes the pivot point geometry ....

sweetpea · 07-24-2009, 12:44 PM

I'd give PAU a call, they probably have some or can put you in contact with the company that makes em.

JohnVH · 07-24-2009, 12:49 PM

Thanks for the reminder to make sure mine are still tight!

Dan767 · 07-24-2009, 01:23 PM

Sam,

I sent Herve an e-mail this morning.

John,

I think that was probably a link that didn't get loctite (aarrgghh!)

No one was at the field yesterday, had the place to myself. Takeoff, land, fuel, Repeat....

I think I flew two hours in the four that I was there. Listened to the ball game on the radio a little and spent some time looking for my new battery that departed my little Rich Models Yak (didn't find it)....
