    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    A little rough around the edges. Yes on the double entendre... 100's of videos on Poly-Brush but not much of anything on Poly-Tak. I think it's too thick, I'm going to do a trial piece and thin the Poly-Tak. I smoothed some of the edge with an iron but not of too a good start. I will...

    What beer ya drinking tonight?

    Rolling Rock? Late 90’s? It’s been a while for me……. I didn’t really like beer until about 25 yrs old. Then I bought a boat in that time frame and learned to like beer in a hurry. Cabin cruiser so beers were consumed while anchored. Mostly Corona but Rolling Rock was a regular…….. I miss...

    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    I only see 2” tape in the order. I found a Nelitz Cub list on RCU and ordered what was listed. Including the shears, so maybe that builder cut his own 3/4 tape……….

    Scale RCM 1/3 Scale Champ Build

    I flew Saturday (1 flight), everybody is at Nall I guess as only one other member was at the field. Once he left I didn’t fly. But the early afternoon temp was only 68 or so. Wife like to golf so we golfed today in the low 70’s. Very cool recently.
