[Wild Fred]

fun, isn't it? a new challenge.

[sparkplug]

The tail built from foam,bit of carbon would not be lighter,faster,cheaper,i just asking.

[doinkedit]

Flight report fer fuck sakes !this a wet dream or what?

[Wild Fred]

still haven't found my balsa stripper yet, but i did dig up all the parts for my ronnie retardo helmet cam. i can't see this flying any different than any other slick, but will get some video for you snowbound guys to watch!

Those strippers take a solid 5 min to make, just saying

[sparkplug]

Its hard to be a leader,more so when got to film your self with a helmet, could you mount that thing on straw hat,or on shoulder like a Perot. Put a few feathers on it,no one would think wrong, thats just WF and his bird.

just got back from flying it, got a pretty good video- but can't download it on my chromebook! trying to charge my old computer now. kristi in st pete training for new job, won't be back till thursday or i'd use her computer.

flew great. i'm a little rusty, haven't flown since i bought this house! need a little rudder expo and maybe some throttle curve. other than that, flew awesome!

will post video as soon as possible.

shoot, it takes me half the night to put the make on a stripper!

[sparkplug]

WF rusty,say it ant so,needed a push,now we get off your back,glad you had good flight. So,whats best way to make balsa striper,even if it takes 20 min.

[Wild Fred]

buy a mas one from tower! hooks can post a pic of his. pretty simple to make but hard to explain. a pic is all you need.

If you know somebody with a 3D printer, have them print one.

I made my own:

[sparkplug]

That stripper looks neat, them strippers look rough,have to be real hard up. Flew mojo more,better with low wind but,cg way back,like 6in back of spar. Moved ebc and batt,used wire ties as far up as could,much better but not enought. You can see my finger under plane at bal polnt,guess need add more iron to front. Flew 202,bad ass as always,even with 1000ma pack. Boat is 2012,37 hours,been sitting 10 years,get to go through whole fuel system.

[sparkplug]

Not great plc of cg but you can see way back,dont see how he flew it.

[sparkplug]

One more,since i never had plnk plane,find bit hard to see,what color to add to bottom of wing,strips or something,has 4 black now,they help.

[Wild Fred]

only fags and cj's add nose weight. put a little expo on elevator and learn to fly like a bro!

[Wild Fred]

so, i'm out back trying to catch pinfish to bait my hooks for tonight, and the highlands county boyz come cruising by! you can tell they highlands county because they ingenious rednecks, like me and flightcrazed! ask him, he'll tell you same!

guy said "it's my canal golf cart! trolling motor, slow, no emission, good to go!" the dalmation was an awesome dog, by the way.

all i see is goats and boats... gave gus a woody, but i think a freudian slip- if no pic of cg, there is no cg issue. it's all in your mind, unlearn what you have learned and deal with the next level! read jonathan livingston seagull if you don't get my reference.

having said that, you bring that boat down here, we go fishing. drink homebrew. crash planes in canal- foam floats- we post drunk pics, even constrictor will be envious!
