RE: SCRATCH BUILT P-38M NIGHT LIGHTNING
When I was a kid I heard my Dad and uncles talking about some gal that they knew and had refered as " She was built like a P-38" ..... being only 7 or 8 I didn't catch their full meaning until I met a P-38 of my own.... Ahh fond memories of my mispent youth!!

RE: SCRATCH BUILT P-38M NIGHT LIGHTNING
I must say, that this is a true scratch built plane, thanks for showing it to us,..... I also enjoy building and this just keeps the blood flowing.... I do have a few questions.... I read that you scaled up the original drawings and then cut out the former and ribs.... were these laser cut or did you cut then by hand?? and how many copies of the drawings did you make to cut to make formers? please continue to show us your skills thanks

RE: What have I bought?
well a few of you guys came close , but no cigar, what we have here is a NOVATRUNION it's main purpose is to impose an thought that it will provide better performance , if you study the word from it's root origin LATIN it translates thusly :: NOVA = no go, trunnion ( french) = tree trunk) now we all understand that trees don't go anywhere, as to the cooling fins on this device they are to be used as finger grips when installing said device, they also allow the seller to raise the price a bit because of the COOL FACTOR. I hope that this provides a reasonable answer . if not too bad

RE: Disappointed in RC Advancement Over Last 20 Years
Not happy the way technology has evolved? there is an asy fix for that,, 1. dust off the drawing table, sharpen your pencil, clear the cobbwebs out of your head and develope it your self. If you percieve a need for somrthing someone else mayalso need it and thusly you have contributed to the hobby as well as to the industry... and you can now let someone else cry about nothing new No change = No change , do something chang something

I used Robart P/N 350 door hinges and had to play with them a bit to figure which was the better configuration.... Robart does not have any instructions or method in the use of thise item........any way the bolts that I used are 4-40x3/8...... only two at this time just to hold things in place
