The cutting of the parts is great. Still trying to figure out your design. I like seeing it becoming alive, picture by picture

Thanks RCM. Very different than your place, wich I find beautifull from your videos.
The buildings you see in the mapple trees are sugar shacks where mapple syrup is made.

I have to move to the garage to use some of my larger saws. In retrospect, it would've been easier to scribe it with a sharp knife and snap it off like working with sheetrock.

Looks like an awesome project Art! - neat to see the progress coming along. It was dead calm yesterday and I was wishing my batteries were charged for my big plane, been a long time since I've flown it now.

Looking forward to seeing the finished product!

Love those pic's CG - I'm jealous of you guys back east every fall, you get the nice red colours, here it's all shades of yellow. Looks nice, but not as nice as the red & yellow you get back there.

Here's what it looks like around here, took this last week, our leaves are over 1/2 gone now :-(

We don't get lots of fall color here either, they don't call Washington the evergreen state for nothing. Glen, I have a lot of goals for this new plane, we'll have to wait and see how it works out.

Yes, twin booms from some CF I just happen to have in stock.
Currently the plan is two Eflight power 10's and three blade counter rotating props.
