PapaBear Posted April 21, 2015 Author Posted April 21, 2015 At last i have been able to spend a few hours getting some more detailing done, while Rossi (another dangerdog) sits outside supping on his ale. 2 Quote

BluBear Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Wow, looking great old chap! Can't be long till the maiden now surely? Oh and give Rossi a pat from me! Quote
PapaBear Posted April 22, 2015 Author Posted April 22, 2015 Thanks lads, hope to fly it towards the end of summer. work has stopped on it for a while as i am working on a 1/3 scale Supercub for a guy and at 9 ft long and some 13 ft wingspan it takes up most of workshop. Handy little jobs like this help fund the hobby so its well worth the delay and interesting at the same time, will post a few pics of it later. Quote

PapaBear Posted August 26, 2015 Author Posted August 26, 2015 well, i guess the next step would be 1:1 scale "model" i so envy you PapaBear Funny you should say that, i saw a full size model of a pitts the other day, not sure where it was. Have a bit of trouble getting that in the old man cave lol, Quote
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted August 26, 2015 1. DDz Quorum Posted August 26, 2015 So much skill with only one head and two hands Mel ; ) Top man ! Quote
gec Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 There's that guy in Australia I believe that fly's in 80% scale Spit model. Recently was in the news for surviving landing without the wheels that did not come out. Quote
PapaBear Posted August 27, 2015 Author Posted August 27, 2015 Will have to look that one up, thats probably bigger than pitts at 80%. Quote
PapaBear Posted August 27, 2015 Author Posted August 27, 2015 At long last on the wing alighnment jig Hopefully the wings will come off as a pair, this will save messing about with rigging wires every time its assembled. 2 Quote
