    Scale Nelitz 1/3 scale Cub build

    Love my Futaba's! Use my 12Z as my main radio and the 14MZ as a backup. Might pick up another 12 if opportunity affords.

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    As Summer is fading away here in Easter Idaho, I'm getting geared up to start on the fuse. Have a special guest showing up in a couple of weeks to help out with the build. Pics to follow. I've also seen that Balsa USA has a new covering material out called Planetex. Has anyone used it yet? It's...

    Installing the wing tip cowl and conversion servo and hardware onto the wing tips was the next step.

    There are some doublers to glue on the fuse, as well as 3 gyros, along with the computer controller and receiver.

    Rotormast V-22 Osprey Review

    Next I built the landing gear up. You have to glue the frame set together and drill the mounting points through the fuse. There are a couple of lexan parts you have to put a bend in and a pair of duck billed channel locks works great. My kit had some wrong screws with it, but Tom sent out a set...

    Rotormast V-22 Osprey Review

    If you buy the kit with the power package, it comes with some quality scorpion motors and castle speed controllers.

    Rotormast V-22 Osprey Review

    The next step is to add the speed controller and connector board. I had some Hitec aluminum servo arms that worked great on the build. If you are planning on building the scale kit, make sure you tuck all the wires neatly inside the frames and along the sides so they don't interfere with the...

    Rotormast V-22 Osprey Review

    The Rotormast V-22, sold and developed by Tom Mast has been on the market for some time now, and has gone through a few updates over the years. The kit is a builders kit and anyone who enjoys building would enjoy this build. Attention to details is quilt important on this one, as any missed step...

    Rotormast V-22 Osprey Review

    Got flight #6 on it today, but I didn't have anyone with me to record it. I'm learning the in's and out's of maintaining the Rotormast V-22 and need to do a video on just adjusting the conversion gear slider. I'll try and have it done in the next few weeks. I'll post the photos I took during...

    Rotormast V-22 Osprey Review

    I build a Rotormast V-22 for a buddy of mine a couple of years ago. Since then, he as given it to me as a gift and if anyone is interested, I'll post the build pics and flight updates. Thanks.

    Addiction XL Build??

    Ya, I'm not sure what all was changed except the motor and light setup. But I'm very happy!! Though I do wish the wing screws were easier to install.

    Addiction XL Build??

    Put 3 flights on it yesterday! It flys better than the X in my opinion. At least I had an easier time doing all the maneuvers I like to do!! It's a keeper for sure. :banana-dance:

    Scale Bud Nosen 1/4 Scale Cub?

    I think the postman let me send it as a letter, he just made sure it fit through his little measuring slot for letters. I was surprised by the 4.30! I'd still like to cover that if you will let me. And thank you!!
