Hello and Happy New Year to all. At the close of 2007, an update seemed in order to reflect the direction I've gone with things.
Over the past 6 months, I have been fortunate to acquire and setup an advanced laser cutting system in my workshop. It features a 24 x 48 cutting bed and high powered laser. In addition, I've been devoting a large part of my time toward creating quality laser cut kits and setting up the website at
TFCaeroplanes.com.
My initial kit offering was and continues to be very successful with the
Park Strafing Mustang, an 18 inch span, 65 gram built up balsa kit capable of speeds of 60 mph on inexpensive radio and power equipment.
The latest is the
Quick "E" Finish, a 23 inch wingspan "Quikie 500" type pylon racer intended as a "one class" pylon event for local club racing. It features simple construction and comes with everything needed for flight in one inexpensive package (just add a Rx and you're flying!). (Web info coming soon)
In addition, I'm under construction and continuing the design of the 100" Spruce Goose for the second Buildoff in the Scale Electric Planes forum. It's been a busy 6 months!
Looking ahead to the next 6 months, I hope to accomplish:
Completion and maiden of the Spruce Goose.
Design and Production Kits of a Micro "Nothstar" built by a LHS owner.
Addition of another Micro Warbird to create a "line" rather than a "single".
Well, that should keep things busy around here. Glad you stopped by, hope to talk to you soon
