Re: CMAD Small Wonder build pics
Tim- the CG stand is intriguing. I see the dowels are slightly sharpened, and are those divots or holes in the little ply pieces?
Do the ply pieces stick to the wing temporarily with some 2-sided tape or something?
How stable is that small bottom piece on the workbench?
Thanks,
Gordon

Re: What'cha workin' on?
Some progress on a new test stand. I have another plate with the same mounting bolt pattern I can put on for other engines also, has an adjustable mount.
Now to sort out some way of ensuring it stays put and doesn't slide forward or tip over

Re: CMAD Small Wonder build pics
Modified my fuel line routing slightly - just shortened it a bit... Tim Remember the little springs that were in the fuel line in the Cox Babe Bee engines and their ilk? Kept the line from collapsing where it was bent? I wonder if we could find some little stainless steel springs (guess they wouldn...

Re: CMAD Small Wonder build pics
is there room to wrap that one around the mount beam so you can reduce the radius (and chances of kinking) on that line?

Re: What'cha workin' on?
Here's the old school Loki that Lonnie painted for me - well, painted after he did the final building, etc...
It's not a bad looking design!
It's in my shop now, gradually working on radio install, etc.

Re: This Is How It Started, This Is Now
OK - here's one of my first QM planes, in 1987 at the Lincoln NATS. I'm in the back, behind my friend Bob Dible. Neither of us has dark hair any more! It's a Gager Estrellita, .15 sized QM.
