    Scale Balsa USA Camel F1

    Looks awesome. I agree I hope the issues with interent explorer get sorted out. I use safari at the house but at work I'm stuck with IE as thats what they want us to run.

    3D My first Design. I Dubb it The ChubCub

    I think for now I have it pretty well sorted out as it is flying awesome at the moment. Here is my problem with both those ideas now at the current setup. I could build in a slot in the fuse to attach the battery but it wouldn't be very conducive to others flying the plane. As I have gotten more...

    IMAC Dalton 300 ml build thread.

    I personally am really digging the covering you can get from value hobbies. I have used it on the last few planes I built and I really like the way it lays down. Easy to get wrinkles out and doesn't take a crazy amount of heat to sbrink like mono cote does.

    These are a few of the ones I use. I have a few others of various sizes that have been bought elsewhere but these 3 links are to the clamps I use most often. Most of which I buy when they go on sale and then I use the 20% coupon out of the sales flyers...

    I wasn't trying to be rude just trying to be funny myself and I'm sorry to Roger if I offended him. I have been impressed with everything he has built and dont want to take anything away from him.

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    Completly understood. Im referring to the profile planes though where they need some sort of tube in the fuse to keep them strong enough. A lot of the guys flying them actually like a fiberglass tube over csrbon as it allows for s little bit of flex when it is dorked in instead of breaking like...
