    42" Vyper Bype

    I asked at WRAM and their comment was it just wasn't selling and so they were thinning inventory. it was unclear if they would be reordering. people don't think of Bipes when they look at 3D even though some great full size is Bipes

    Finally in a walking boot and got into my workshop last weekend for the first time since 11/6 and got to play with my lasercutter for just the second time. I had a much different autumn (don't say fall ) and winter planned. Being self employed one man shop and disabled puts a crimp in things...

    Well, you can build the GIF out of smaller images. I just wanted the logo to be good resolution ;) That image is only 418.04 KB (428073 bytes). And for 8 images that is about 50kb each. I'm sure half of that could be cut out and still have a usable image. And nothing says you can't just use 3-4...

    If you standardize the picture size or crop them there are tools to take stills and make a .gif that will "rotate" through in the browser and be a single file on the site. For example, this is just 8 stills taken from a video (oh, and you can specify the time each image is visible) This is a...

    Is that what you call being laid off in 2008 and having the market dry up? just making the best of an unemployment situation. But yes, I don't have anything better to do ;) And I've been manufacturing the Gremlins since 1992 part time so it wasn't from a cold start. I have the time and I've...

    Joe Nall 2014!!!!

    just shy of 1000 miles one way for me and I'm on the east coast but that and SEFF (1150 miles one way) are worth the trip. I'll meet you half way at Watts over Owatonna (Minnesota). 1300 miles one way for me. I met Ashleigh (rcgirl<some number>) there last year. VERY talented. And then I do WRAM...

    Joe Nall 2014!!!!

    I plan on being there again this year. I will be in the National Balsa booth with my foamies. They are up near the main flight line but we always swing down to see our 3D buddies. Last year was my first year and it's definitely worth the drive, even from Oregon! So if you see "Santa" wandering...

    Joe Nall!!! May 11th-18th 2013

    Will there be a Nall 2014 thread? I'm planning on being there in the National Balsa booth space up near the main line. But I will be down to visit the 3D line in the evenings like last year

    NEAT Fair

    Is anyone going to NEAT this year? I will have a booth on the north end of Vendor Row and if you do make it down you should stop by. Not really a big 3D event but there will be some there http://neatfair.org/

    Easiest thing is just for people to check out the website http://www.racores.com/. I just don't want to drag the full 10mpg trailer down so I am going to be picky about what I pack into the station wagon for the trip and get 20mpg instead :D I am sure I will be hanging out with Crash and Laine...

    Watts Over Owatonna

    Yeah, the 3D was somewhat restricted as was the helicopter flying. It really is mostly geared to the sport flyer but it was nice for them to have a segment of each hour dedicated to 3D. The flying was pretty incredible and i think it will get more time since the interest is there. Every event...
