Looking at the work you are doing, Chris, it won't be long before your Dak is in the air again. I am hoping for another "maiden flight" at the next PSSA meeting in 24 days.

I do like the DC3. This is my own design 1/32nd sized version on it's short maiden flight. Unfortunately, it suffered from an almost terminal tip stall shortly after this photo was taken. A new wing is being constructed with more washout. Hopefully that will reduce, if not cure, the tip stall problem.

I find it easiest to view the item in person before buying anything. Yes, it is limited by how far I am willing to travel, but I find that scammers disappear quickly when I ask for an address!

To be honest, you followed the plan! I will update the fin drawing to reflect the thicker fin on this size of Sabre. Apologies.

That will work, I did it that way on the little Lancaster and DC3 which used a single central keel. You will need to keep checking that the fuselage stays straight, though.

Very neat planking Phil. No gaps visible on the inside either. I am impressed.

It's look good, Phil. I wish my workbench was as clean and tidy as your one!

Correct!

Thanks Phil, I will be editing the original drawings over the next week. I reckon the addition of corner pieces will be more than enough to fix the rigidity of the wing building jig. Please shout out if you find any further issues with the plan or parts. Martin.

Hi Phil, I have noticed that some of the jig pieces need adjusting for any future kits! Please confirm: J1 needs to be extended to R5a J2 needs to be extended to R10a J3 needs to be extended to R15a J4 needs to be extended to R4a and R19a J5 needs to be extended to R8a and R22a J7 needs to be extended to J17. If you need the jig parts replaced please let me know. Martin.

At the Popham meet, last year, there were very few traders selling RC stuff.

Surely you should have asked, "You have cars in your hangar?"

I believe a Mustang has already been kitted, so how about a twin Mustang?

Lancaster looks great! Keep watching for the next multi-engine models, from the scrap box, in this series. We expect to test fly the next one in about a month, weather permitting!

I've had a few recent issues with Fusion 360 freezing when using a bluetooth mouse. Works fine using wireless IR connection instead.
