I would like to see in your next installment the method you use to drill holes for mounting the turbine. I am assuming that you would use a 90 degree attachment on your drill/dremel tool.
Thanks! Well it's a very quick one to get together! Could be easily done in a few days. I will have it ready by this coming weekend but waiting on gear.
Thanks! I'm digging the Matte as well. Looks much cleaner with not being able to see the fingerprints. I think it will look better longer compared to a gloss finish. Makes the control rods Crazy stiff!
Generally if something electronic is going to fail it will usually happen fairly quickly from the start of it's life. The cycling of the servo adds movement, heat and useage. The hope is that if it's going to fail it will happen during the cycling period.
Hey Amy. Always suggest it with every model. Generally if something electronic is going to fail it will usually happen fairly quickly from the start of it's life. The cycling of the servo adds movement, heat and useage. The hope is that if it's going to fail it will happen during the cycling period.
Two questions: Why not have the servo arm geometry "straight" when that little door is open since the wind force will keep it closed and when it is open the force is the greatest? Second--what pop rivets and gun do you use? I have never used one and would like to. Future "Tip Time" maybe?
Great Question. Probably possible with some creativity but not sure if the servo position + Geometry + space between the arm and pivot may not allow. Def a great suggestion. On this small front door geometry won't matter much at all as it's in the direction of flow which will close the door. On a main gear door scenario this geometry is more important to help keep door closed as the wind will suck the door open. 2. Just a simple gun from Princess auto/Mcmaster Carr. I've owned a few and they all work the same. I always look for the smallest one so it fit's inside the pipe.
That thing at the end of your 10' cable is called a gender changer. No doctors are required for this gender change. 😂 I must say it is a great plane and i hope to win it. When is the draw? 😊😂😂😂😂😂
using the shop extensions tip for sure. That's awesome
Thanks!
that thing is awesome looking!!!
Thanks! I'm very happy with it!
Fantastic , ❤ the scheme !
Thanks!

Hey Roger! Exactly! 1/8" hole with a 90degree attachment.
Thanks Jon, you are a master craftsman and it's great to learn from you - doing things the right way. Thanks for the tips. Cheers.
Thanks Murray!
She's a gorgeous airframe. I really love the matte finish. Looking forward to seeing her airbourne!
Thank you! Will probably be maidening it at Montana Jets Event.
Looks like a very complete kit and all planned out.. should be a very nice build series.. very nice Jonathan..
For Sure! Very well thought out and lots pre done! Very easy project!
This should be great. The jet is slowly growing on me. Always enjoy your thorough reviews!!!
Thanks! Well it's a very quick one to get together! Could be easily done in a few days. I will have it ready by this coming weekend but waiting on gear.
Superb !!!
Thank you!
Hi Jon ,
Awesome , as usual , young man !!
She's looking to be a doddle , to set up !!
Keep up the good work , mate !!
Cheers
Phil
Thanks Phil! Very easy to get it together! She's a quick one!
I’m purchasing this as my second turbine.
Great Choice!
Super nice airframe..... Love it but too expensive toown one lol
👍
I like the matte. Going to start doing my control rods like that looks nice

Simply stunning. Great content as always. Thank you and keep them coming buddy
Thanks Ray!
What foam are you using on your table tops to lay wings and surfaces on?
The black stuff is rubber gym flooring material
what does cycling the servo do? does it break it in?

Forward fuselage reminds me of a heli canopy 😆
Oh Yea! For sure!
Mind if I ask why you cycle your servos on each build and would you recommend doing it on servos that aren't going in a turbine model?
Thanks Amy x

Is there a particular tester you use? May be worth purchasing one x
I use a Jeti box. Works great
Sir hi, you have not shown us the working of your new 3D printer ?
Saturday video! I had to spend some time learning as I have never done anything like this before.
That is a nive peice of kit Jon. If the nose gear door is the hardest part rest of it gonna be a breeze bring on next vid ;0)
Thanks Nick. Yea it's an easy one for sure!

@@thelightersideofrc thanks!
How about the powerbox igyro sat?
Great if your using a PB radio and PB Setup.
Its a toss up between trusty bent screwdriver and Ness 😂
HAHA. I think if we put a litter box in the shop she would never leave. 😂😂
Can you please tell me where your shop located? Which city in Canada I am from Canada I just wanna know how far you are to me.
Hey Jerry. Basically CALGARY, AB
I wish I could afford to afford to build one.just not in this life time 😢😢😢😢😢😢
🤔
@@thelightersideofrc I'm disabled and live on a very fixed budget so unless I win the lottery I won't have one of those anytime soon
I am drooling LOL
HAHA. She's a beauty hey!
This is not a build. This is an assembly.
Thank you so much for clarifying that! Phew.....I was worried.

BAHAHA! Nice Al! I like that. I think I'm going to use that from now on! Love it!
I don’t know. Love your channel but man that is a flying killer whale! Don’t know if I would buy that over a EA jet or Comp Arf.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Simple, buy them all!
Lol your right! One thing is certain, Aeropanda is in my backyard. Manny and Danny are just amazing. All my stuff is from them. Jetti, JetCentral etc.
All see is the big brother to the Easy2Fly Fatty Tomcat F14.
