New Turigy TX Mitt (Winter is here)
Well recived my New TX mit form HK yesterday.
Its pretty nice. the bottom of the inside is a short nap type felt material .
Ive already got plan too install some fabric on the bottom. Goin too get some of that Shag carpet type material. I may just lay it in or get out the tread and needle.If its a heavy material ,i cant see it moving around much if you cut it 1/2'' bigger then the area of the base. Velcro would work as well.. Hmm Ideas ideas...
When i have the neck strap on and the radio hanging, there is tons of room on the bottom,as the radio come away from the bottom,but not enough for your TX sticks too hit the top.
The hand openings are a perfect size..With a Jacket on, the Cuffs well seal it up nice. To small of hand opening could spell disaster if your toss your plane with your right hand.( Like i do) I did some mock test today .of throwing a plane and trying too get my hand in the hole. Not a Prob at all.I should start throwing the plane with my left hand anyways seeing im left handed... im one of those mixed up people.im a south paw but do most everything with my Right hand. But i can Airbrush/paint/draw till the cows come home.
Bottom is a Pleather material
Inside the hand opening there is a wires frame keeping it keep its shape and Sturdiness

AH TitanSloper
Well with the winds being mostly High this time of year.Ive been looking at making a Wing. for Sloping and Possibly a Out-runner on the back(maybe a addition after Slope Maiden)
I had a old AH Titan throw Glider kicking around in my Closet for sometime.And the Build i was doing,i lost interest in it.
So i trimmed the Inside of the 2 Wing half's and butted them together.
Right now AUW is 155g.Going too get some Colored Packing tape.Add 24K CF tow Spar...and take it too the Slope(lol once i find one)
Anyhow just a little Test Wing...
Heres a Link too the Spec's,With the CG calculator.

Maidened the OSG
Maidened the OSG this Evening...Noticed at WOT shes wanted too go Left as shes climbed.I found her soft and docile on the rudder which is good ...Uploading a Video now.used my Hat camera,need some adjusting,first time using it,and Stupid me never noticed the Infinity setting was off,so alot of the vid was Blurry/non focused...I edited most/what i could out..
Cant wait too try her in some winds where she'll just soar in one spot
I know shes a One sheet glider but i may add a 1'' strip too the rudder too see if i get more response...

Eurofighter Maiden.(with Crash)
| EuroFighter Maiden (5 min 35 sec) |
Me and Prime8 headed too my clubs field for the Maiden flight of the EuroFighter.
On the second pass of the Sun...Im not sure what really happened,it happened
so fast...Next thing i know im inverted and was not enough Space between the plane and the ground to pull out of.If the the trees were not there i may had enough.But if i never it was of been a Complete rebuild.I i think the trees saved her
Plane is repaired and ready for some touch up paint
Pre flgiht check before the Maiden flight

Tomhe's Euro-fighter Build
This bird is my first Scratch-build and i have to say i am very pleased of the ease
it was too Build.
Using only Elmer's foam board and a mix between 5min epoxy and FS CA glue ,it went together very good.
I found the hardest/frustrating part of the build was soaking/peeling the darn paper off the foam board.
