Re: Airplane transport rack from PVC pipe

I made one for my Tiguan before the Phoenix race in January. I used 45 degree bends across the top to create a pocket for each fuselage to sit into. However I would never do that again as it added a bunch of cost and complexity to the build... It also ended up being a couple of inches too wide to ge...

May 6th - 7th Triangle Series Racing Oakdale CA

See the flyer for more details. Hope that those of you in NorCal, SoCal and the surrounding areas will come up/down/across t...

Re: Miss Cosmic Wind EF1 Kit

Don - if you're willing to make an ARC and ship it to me I'd be interested in the price and will likely buy one. I just don't have the time to build kits these days.

Shoot me a PM if you are.

Re: Your latest creation

Yes, he will be racing EF1 with that Proud Bird. This will be his 3rd year racing EF1. I have another Proud Bird, new in box, .... just in case!

Re: FPV Airplanes

I've given this some thought... Am thinking it be better done with EPO foam combat wings (which they're already doing) as they're more durable... Still I don't think the rules expressly prohibit FPV flight. Not quite sure how the launch would go or what you'd do if you lost orientation after roundin...

Re: Morgan Hill Race and Season Championship Results

My thanks to Joe, Sandra, all of the clubs which hosted us and all of the folks who donated their entire day to help by judging, cooking and otherwise assisting the setup and operation of each race. We couldn't do this without each and every one of you!
