    Got the 68" and 103" SX out today, both such fun airplanes to fly! Let a few people fly the 68" the past couple of days and they all had excellent remarks about how smooth, responsive, and stable it is.

    Another day, another maiden :banana-dance: 68" AJ 330SX flies SUPER good, I managed to grab only 2 flights this morning but I'm itching to get back out and fly it more after work. It absolutely flies just like it's bigger 103" brother, very locked in, and humbly stable post stall. Final...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    It's not an Ultracote anymore, the entire industry is shifting away from it. This is a proprietary color for AJ Aircraft. They do sell it in 2m rolls: https://www.aj-aircraft.com/AJ-Aircraft-Covering-Teal-_p_1885.html

    I'm not sure if anyone has heard the news but Tim Jesky (Andrew Jesky's father) passed away yesterday. We will miss him dearly. He always loved seeing us post about the AJ airplanes so in keeping with it, here's the latest and greatest from AJ Aircraft. The new 68" Extra 330SX.

    January 8 update. https://amablog.modelaircraft.org/amagov/2026/01/08/fcc-decision-update-da-26-22/ Basically, the FCC is backpedaling some because someone somewhere realized that this will affect our own defense contractors and would severely harm large portions of the US economy.

    Boost Tabs

    Modern 1000oz/in+ servos don't have problems with 3D control surfaces even on 120" sized airplanes. As for current draw, we now have 12v style servos that see a big reduction in current draw which means good quality 22awg wiring can be used. These models don't need boost tabs, just good...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    Got the new 92" AJ Slick on the bench the last handful of nights. Engine was test ran last night but it needs a carb rebuild, and probably some new reeds. Need to baffle the cowl and cut out the hot air vents but otherwise she's just about ready to rip :banana-dance:

    Yep our weather is beginning to cool down here too. It only got up to 87F yesterday! Over the weekend the local news stopped by our club to do a bit, I was hand selected to be the dancing monkey to really show off what we can do :oops:
