I'm in it up to my knees, or, once was.The RC flying club field is open but face masks and proper social distancing is in effect. I not been to field for almost two years now. Very little time to fly RCs right now. I do have an Invictus 4x4 truck that I sometimes run in my cul de sac in my neighborhood.
was standing in line at Rite Aid pharmacy - sign at the pharmacy window - due to nationwide shortage of small bills and coins, we cannot accept large bills that require change and ask you pay in a way that does not require change - or something to that affect. A nationwide shortage of small bills and coins. huh?Alcohol (like, isopropyl type) is still unobtainium.
Over the weekend I had a helluva time getting bagged ice. Damn recreators.
Their G2 AK triggers are becoming a hot commodity.
I tried to open a PM with you, but the site says I can't send you a message. Wanted to talk with you...Not firearm related, but canning lids are double normal price on Amazon right now. Will check some stores instead. Shoulda thought of this when I was buying seeds.
I picked up the Horizion Hobbies SuperCub ( because it's a lot like my real one) and have been having a blast with it here locally! As big as it is, it's super easy to keep it in close and enjoy it, mostly doing the STOL flights and testing out all the mods! Can't fly Jet here, not enough space, and now they require special permits, even though it's electric!The RC flying club field is open but face masks and proper social distancing is in effect.

Do you keep up with Mike Patey and Draco? (rip)I picked up the Horizion Hobbies SuperCub ( because it's a lot like my real one) and have been having a blast with it here locally!

Oh Yes, I'm sort of on again off again friends with Mike and Mark and the rest of the boys, I'm actually a member of the STOL Rats out of Nor-Cal ( as it's the closest to Or.) and I hang with Steve Henry quite a bit, he has really helped me problem solve a bunch of little things and sourced me parts through Just Aircraft that I couldn't get otherwise!Do you keep up with Mike Patey and Draco?

Seen Scrappy?
I KNEW he wouldn't give up a turbine now. Sweet. Thanks for the info!Oh Yes, I'm sort of on again off again friends with Mike and Mark and the rest of the boys, I'm actually a member of the STOL Rats out of Nor-Cal ( as it's the closest to Or.) and I hang with Steve Henry quite a bit, he has really helped me problem solve a bunch of little things and sourced me parts through Just Aircraft that I couldn't get otherwise!
Mike is still Broken up about Draco, Though he has Draco II lined up for when he gets Scrappy all done and dialed in! I cant say more, but he is going crazy with Draco II! Scrappy is almost done, he is about half way through the wing build and it's going to be as crazy as the rest of it, cant wait to see it!
Mine isn't near as radical, but I do have more wing then Mike and I have lots of power, and mine is much lighter weight, so it's going to be fun to see how it comes out!

All I can say is if you watch all his Scrappy build videos, he does drop some serious hints at what he is up to with Draco II, plus his lovely Bride has her new plane now and wants to play with the boys, which is freaking awesome! I'd fly with her anytime! Besides, she is one of the few who didn't call my Savage "Cute" and instead thought it was more hot rod like then most bush planes!I KNEW he wouldn't give up a turbine now. Sweet. Thanks for the info!
I have a kit (plans) for a cub with 11ft wingspan.I picked up the Horizion Hobbies SuperCub ( because it's a lot like my real one) and have been having a blast with it here locally!

That's almost 1/3 scale, freaking YUGE!I have a kit (plans) for a cub with 11ft wingspan.
Something I got from a fellow builders collection, after he passed away.
I highly doubt (not sure on that) that I will ever complete it.
EDIT
I would build it as a water tight hard frame, and turn it into a weathervane
HaHa, it sure is. I'm not sure the chord of the wing, but it's FAT.That's almost 1/3 scale, freaking YUGE!
My Big Cub ( real one ) is a 38 foot span, and the Savage is 33 foot!
I had to resort to using brake cleaner. I haven't been able to find isopropyl alcohol anywhere since March.Other than Covid stuff, what use is it for gun related stuff? I used to use it to make my own case lubricant. Started using triple distilled vodka. Roughly the same amount of alcohol to water as 70% iso.
When I was making the 4 buck 20ga loads I couldn't find small quanities of the shot .... until I looked in the fishing isle. .21 slinky shot is the same size as 4 buck.20 gauge buckshot shotshells. Sold out in the entire country so far as I can tell. Lucky though, I got the last bag of #3 buckshot delivered to my door today, along with the rest of the makings.
EDIT: maybe I should sell individual pellets on ebay once I've used what I want.
